What is the Math Lab?

The Math Lab is here to help.  That is its sole purpose.   It is here to help you become a better student.  Whether we help you understand your calculator, a topic, or an entire course, we are here for you. 

Your instructor is always the best resource for any course.  He or she may also suggest you visit the Math Lab open hours for extra help or practice (see the schedule for up to date listings!). 

You never need an appointment to visit the Math Lab; all of our services are on a drop in basis.  When you come in, sign the roster and get to work.  One of our peer tutors will be with you to help you through your current questions.

What can the Math Lab do for me?

Well, we can help you through homework assignments, help you with difficult concepts, and even help you study for exams or quizzes.  Since we have a number of additional textbooks, we can also give you additional problems for you to practice--so you can be SURE you understand!Carrie Tucker working with a student in the Math Lab

It's always best to come with a few questions or areas to work with.  You also don't want to cover too much in one setting--Marathon math (or ANY subject) sessions can do more harm than good.  If you break it up throughout the week, and you'll find you understand things better and faster.

Standard Disclaimers:

There are some things that the Math Lab workers cannot do for you.

  • They won’t allow you to drop off work to be checked and picked up later. 

  • They won’t correct errors.  You will have to make actual corrections yourself.

  • They won’t assist with take-home exams or quizzes.

  • They won’t be judgmental about your work.

Under NO circumstances will someone at the Math Lab assist with an exam or quiz.  Please do not even try.  We will report your actions to the Instructor AND the Academic Dean as a violation of the Academic Honesty Policy, which could result in your dismissal from the college.
