In-Person Tutoring Services

Students can obtain free weekly tutoring by visiting the Academic Success Center for a Tutor Request Packet providing some basic contact information, your availability, and details on what course you need help with. Once the packet is turned in, you will receive an email or call with details about your assigned tutor and the session schedule. Once confirmed, attend your tutoring sessions as scheduled, prepared with questions and materials to make the most of your tutoring experience. 

If you have any specific questions or need further assistance, feel free to ask one of our Academic Success Center coordinators!

Online Tutoring Services

Our students have free access to online tutoring services 24/7 for any RichmondCC class through Upswing. Sessions are real time audio, video, chat and virtual white board. Log in to Upswing using your self-service information.

Instructor Referrals

We encourage our instructors to send students to our Academic Success Center for tutoring, skill labs or remedial work. Faculty must complete referral cards for students to be tutored and to identify specific academic weaknesses, as well as make suggestions for tutorial materials and/or techniques. Students will be assigned a tutor only when a referral card has been received by an Academic Success Coordinator.

We also encourage our faculty to recommend outstanding students who would be exceptional tutors in a subject area. Although RichmondCC relies on student tutors, professional tutors may be employed if needed.
