Tutoring/Academic Support CenterTaking a course you just can't grasp? The Academic Support Center (ASC) provides free, drop-in tutoring in most subjects taught at ARCC. The ASC also supports an on-site computer lab, a collection of study skills and writing tips, handouts, and information on study groups and upcoming student success workshops. Contact the Academic Support Center as soon as you feel like you're having difficulty with a class - do not wait until the end of the semester. The ASC wants to put you in charge of your own learning through collaboration with peer tutors. If you are frustrated or confused, you can get clarification. If you already feel confident in your work, you can improve even more. We can help improve your preparation for exams, provide feedback about how to clarify your ideas on a paper, or present a math problem from a slightly different angle to help you find the answer. Peer TutorsPeer Tutors are ARCC students who excel in their coursework, possess skills and qualities that make them ideal helpers, and have been recommended by ARCC faculty as demonstrating superior subject knowledge. Peer Tutors are well-suited to offer support because they have recently taken many of the same classes that you are in now. This makes them uniquely qualified and you will know you are getting experienced and knowledgeable assistance. Tutors want to develop active, independent learners in the students with whom they work. If you are interested in becoming a peer tutor, visit or contact the ASC or ask a teacher. Location and Hours of Service for each Center The ASC on the Cambridge Campus is located near the information desk in room D208, while on the Coon Rapids Campus you can find it on the lower level of College Services in SC 100, overlooking the river.
