Tutors work on various BCTC campuses and online within specific subject areas to facilitate learning among students. This allows students to meet face-to-face or virtually with a tutor in order to foster understanding within a given subject area as well as provide support in general college skills (time management, study skills, etc).

Tutors should be available during set office hours, which are determined collaboratively by the Tutor, Area Tutoring Coordinator, and the Tutoring Coordinator.

*This posting is for a general tutor pool. Qualified applicants will be contacted by the Tutoring Services Coordinator as needed.

For more information, please contact the Tutoring Services Coordinator.
