Tutor Application Deadline Extended to 10/4!

Hello Allen School Students!
We are extending the application deadline to be a tutor for the 300-level courses this fall. If you are interested in tutoring a 300-level course (and received a 3.5 or above in that course), please consider signing-up! The volunteer form will be open until tomorrow (10/4) at 5:00PM. More details below! 
Please note that we no longer need tutors for the 14X series. 
 ____________________________________________________________________

WHY TUTOR?

Tutoring is a great way to work on your communication skills, support your fellow undergrads, and get experience on your resume. Additionally, it is a low commitment way to determine if a teaching assistant position in the future is a good fit for you or to keep up with your current tutoring skills.  This is a volunteer position but tutors who meet with their group every week during the quarter will get CSE swag!

TUTORING DETAILS

Tutors meet once/week working with a group of 1-4 undergrads, covering CS concepts from a course of your choice. No prior tutoring experience necessary (this is an opportunity for students in the course to get extra help in addition to resources offered by the instructor and teaching assistants).The commitment is one hour/week for one quarter plus a mandatory one hour tutoringtraining = a total commitment of 10 – 15 hours total.

REQUIREMENTS

Your knowledge of the material (you must have completed and passed the course) and your willingness to help!

To volunteer, please review these guidelines and sign up online by Wednesday, October 4th at 5:00PM: https://www.cs.washington.edu/students/ugrad/tutoring/tutor

***Do not fill-out this form if you would like to request to be in a study group this quarter. A separate e-mail went out with information on how to request a tutor.

Questions? E-mail Chloe (cdolese@cs.washington.edu). Thanks for considering!

Sign-up for CSE Tutoring/Study Groups

Hello Allen School Students!

Did you know that the Allen School offers tutoring for the 14X series and 300 level majors-only courses?

Students who sign-up for a study group will meet with 1-4 other undergraduates and a tutor once per week. Tutoring can be a great way to establish effective study habits, explore your courses more in-depth, and meet new people from the Allen School community.

New this quarter: In the past, we have had graduate student tutors lead study groups but new this quarter tutors will be your fellow Allen School students who have already taken the course! It’s important to note that they are not a replacement for a course TA, who will best know what is expected of students in the class. Instead, tutoring provides you with an additional resource that will help you prepare to tackle homework, tests, and projects.

If you would like to sign-up for a study group this quarter, please read the Tutoring Guidelines for Students before submitting the request form on that page.

***Students interested in volunteering to be a tutor should refer to the e-mail I sent earlier today (Volunteer to tutor the….).

Questions? Please e-mail Chloe at cdolese@cs.washington.edu.
