During the Spring semester, peer tutoring is not available. Please check back Fall 2021 for updates.
E-Tutoring by ASC professional tutors and the ThinkingStorm platform is available when classes are in session. Please visit our e-Tutoring page for the detailed schedule and directions for logging into a session.
One-on-one peer tutoring, when available, is a FREE service provided to WPCC students. Students may request a peer tutor in any subject. You may view current peer tutors and subjects by clicking on the “Meet Your Peer Tutors” tab below. If you do not see a peer tutor in your subject, choose the “other” option on the request form. Applications to request peer tutoring are available in the ASC or online (see “Peer Tutor Request Form” below). Assigning a student a peer tutor is not a guarantee and depends on schedules and skills of current students who have been approved as a peer tutor. Please contact the ASC at (828) 448-3115 for more information.
