About Our Services

On-Campus and Remote Tutoring

The primary purpose of the Math Labs is for any students to receive tutoring for any math course offered at Northwest Vista College. 

This lab provides students with a place to work either individually or with a group. Student may come in with homework questions, quiz corrections, test reviews, and test corrections and receive some assistance.

During these sessions, our goal is the help students understand the basic concepts of the topics needed for them to complete their assignments. 

While our tutors will do as much as possible to help the student succeed, the tutors will not complete an assignment for the student.

Students are free to stay in the lab for as long as they would like. The Math Labs are available for students to complete their required 800 minutes of lab time.
