Tutoring is available after school on Wednesdays from 3:30 - 4:30 PM, and at other times by appointment.  I am available after school on most weekdays throughout the semester and will gladly work with you when you need extra help.  Please ask in advance if you need to come for tutoring at another time due to conflicts with sports schedules, part-time jobs, child care responsibilities, school clubs or other extracurricular activites.  Be sure to seek help early to avoid falling too far behind.
