“I particularly remember a drop-in session at the Learning Center for Chemistry 101…I just wasn’t confident solving the complex calculations on my own yet. Thank you to all of the tutors that devote their time to helping their peers!”
- Senior, Pre-Medicine
“When my tutor helped me in the math tutoring center I had that “AH-HA!” moment with my math assignment and it made me feel like I could learn anything that I wanted to learn, as long as I worked hard and utilized the support system of ACE academic tutoring at IUSB.”
- Senior, Business Major
“I left the Writers’ Room feeling much more confident not only about my paper but also about the rest of the semester in my English class.”
- Freshman, Pre-Nursing
