Make Use of UCLA's Tutorial Services
Referring students to one of UCLA’s tutorial centers is an excellent way
for them to have a thoughtful conversation about writing and can relieve you
of being their only source of consultation. Recommending a tutor is
especially useful if you want a student to work on expression or a
particular stage of the writing process. The primary campus resources are
listed below:
- Covel
Tutorials Composition Lab and the Covel Tutorials ESL Tutoring Lab
offer free peer tutoring in 228 Covel Commons. Students are required to
make appointments M-R 9am-9pm and F 9am-5pm (310-206-1491). Drop-in
tutoring is available M-R 7pm-9pm. Tutoring referral forms are available;
you can also arrange for a Covel tutor give a brief presentation to your
class.
- Academic Advancement Program (AAP) Tutorial Services offers free tutoring to AAP students in 1214 Campbell Hall. Students are eligible for AAP “if their academic profiles and personal backgrounds may impact their university experience and their retention and graduation from UCLA” (AAP website). You can encourage your AAP students to reach their Humanities tutor at 310-825-8060.
- The Athletic Department provides peer tutoring for many of its
athletes. The tutor may meet with you individually.
