Become a Tutor

Become a Language Tutor at the Modern Language Center (MLC)

As a tutor you will help students build the skills required to master the course content and the learning process, which includes both cognitive and metacognitive processes.

  • You act as a coach to help students map out their learning goals, place greater value on their learning, and improve their motivation as they progress toward successful outcomes.
  • This also helps you, as the tutor, refine your own skills and build new ones through semesterly trainings, engagement in best tutoring practices, and other professional development opportunities throughout the semester.
