Tutoring

Some students with disabilities may need assistance with course materials—the content, retaining information, study skills, writing and/or reading skills, or time management and organizational skills. Your disability resource facilitator or campus co-ordinator will determine the need for and the amount of tutoring assistance required at the beginning of each term.

Your disability resource facilitator or campus co-ordinator may be able to provide the following assistance:

• Help locate a tutor who fits your needs.



• Orient and train the tutor, outlining responsibilities and intended outcomes.



• Set up a meeting between you and the tutor to establish goals and objectives.



• Make the necessary arrangements for the tutor to be paid for his or her services.



• Meet with you and the tutor monthly to ensure that the accommodation is working and that both parties are satisfied with performance.

Student responsibilities

• Schedule tutor times with the tutor and find a suitable location.



• Arrive on time and have your outline ready for the tutor.



• Advise the disability resource facilitator or campus co-ordinator of any changes in your requirements.



• Arrange a meeting with the disability resource facilitator or campus co-ordinator to arrange invoicing and signatures that may be required for payment of your tutor.



• Notify the disability resource facilitator or campus co-ordinator of any course changes.



• Attend all scheduled classes.
