Tutoring

If you would like to meet with a tutor, the 乐播传媒app最新版本 Science Tutoring Center for Biology & Chemistry has tutors for organic chemistry. This is a free service, and as such the quality of the tutoring varies from tutor to tutor. Check out the 乐播传媒app最新版本 Tutoring Services webpage for the current hours and location (and information for other tutoring centers on campus).

Online paid tutoring services (e.g., Bartleby, Chegg, Clutch Prep, Course Hero, OneClass) are NOT recommended. These services vary in quality, and you often get wrong answers for your hard-earned money. Further, note that it is illegal to post content from your courses online (i.e., outside of Canvas) and there is a good chance using such websites is a violation of your course's academic integrity policy.
