Tutoring

Two tutoring progams

The LAC has two tutoring programs: General Education (Transfer) and Career and Technical Education  (Vocational) Tutoring. To determine which program you belong in, check this list of vocational majors; in order to qualify for Career and Technical Education tutoring, you must first have declared a major from this list. 

NOTE:  Tutoring in the LAC is offered on a group, walk-in basis. Tutors are not available during all open hours.  Please check the schedules to find out when tutors are available for each subject.

How to sign up for

To receive tutoring, PCC students must click-enroll in Civic 3031 (Supervised Tutoring) at the front desk of the LAC. There is no cost, and no credits or grades are issued.  Also, students need to obtain their teacher's signature on a referral form and submit it to the LAC.
