The Learning Centers

Mission Statement
The mission of the SLCC Learning Center is to provide free tutorial services to students enrolled in various courses offered by the college in order to promote student success. We strive to help our students to build confidence, defeat anxieties, and develop a greater appreciation for education and learning. We focus on active learning, learners’ independence, and motivation. The Learning Center serves SLCC’s diverse, multi-campus population by offering one to one tutoring and other educational/support services at The Learning Center, Student Writing Center, and the ESL Lab. The Learning Center supports computer literacy and offers free computer access at our labs; we also offer online tutoring support in the Student Writing Center.

Many programs are offered, but not all services are available at all locations. Offerings vary from semester to semester. Please contact each Learning Center for specific details of times, dates, and offerings.

Tutoring/Tutor referrals
Free tutoring is available on a drop-in basis to all SLCC students. Subjects include math, chemistry, physics, biology, English and writing. The ESL Lab helps ESL students practice English with native English speakers

The Learning Center at the Redwood campus also connects students with qualified private tutors for most subjects. Tutor lists are offered as a service to students, but students must contact and pay private tutors individually. For more information call 957-4172.
