TUTORING: |

As an Oakton student, you can make a half-hour tutoring appointment each week, drop-in during
Open Lab, or contact us online. Tutors can help
you select a topic, organize ideas, and understand your assignment.
They will be happy to answer your questions and discuss major patterns
of errors, but they will not correct all of your errors. |
