Peer Tutoring (Academic Success Centre)
We offer individual attention through our Peer Tutoring service. Whether students need help reviewing class notes and textbook materials, or preparing for tests, our peer tutors can help.

The majority of our tutors have already received an A in the courses that they tutor and have been recommended by the professor. In addition, they receive orientation and training in ways to help students (tutees) improve. They won't do a student's homework, but they will show the student how to be their own best resource. Additionally, peer tutors earn extra money while they improve their own communication skills and build their resumes.
In addition, Confederation College also offers a Professional Tutoring service available on a "drop-in" basis.
