Tutor.com

FSW offers 24/7 online tutoring that connects you one-to one with a subject expert tutor when you need assistance. The College has partnered with Tutor.com to provide 24/7 online tutorial assistance for online and face-to-face (ground) courses. The additional support provided by Tutor.com complements the College’s campus-based Academic Support tutoring centers; both services designed to assist you with academic success and persistence.

Access is available on demand 24/7 to provide support in over 40 subject areas, such as:

  • Math - Algebra, Pre-Calculus, Calculus, Geometry, Statistics, Trigonometry, Finite Math, Discrete Math
  • Science - Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Geology, Anatomy & Physiology, Organic Chemistry
  • Real-time and Drop-off Writing Support
  • Business - Accounting, Finance, Economics
  • World Languages - Spanish, French
  • Computer Science - Intro Comp Science, Java, C++, Microsoft Systems
  • Nursing Topics

How To Use This Service Make the most of your four FSW Tutor.com hours* with these suggestions:

  • On average, a Tutor.com session should be no more than 30-35 minutes per session. Use your FSW funded time wisely!
  • Review your notes and homework problems ahead of time! Figure out what you don’t know first so you are able to ask questions about specific content or confusing concepts.
  • Make sure you have the assignment ready to reference your instructor’s requirements/guidelines with the Tutor.com tutor.
  • Writing assistance - proofread and edit your papers prior to submitting any documents. A drop-off essay review now utilizes 35 minutes of your free tutoring time.
  • Math questions - take a picture of your work and upload it. Working out a problem while writing with a mouse on the white board can be tricky.

*Florida SouthWestern State College reserves the right to limit or increase the time available for use of the service.
