TLC Positions
We look for friendly and welcoming students who are able to assist with front desk responsibilities, serve as the point of contact for checking out materials, and help make The Learning Centers an inviting place for students to study and receive support.
TLC tutors assist students one-on-one, in small group settings, and inside classrooms with related course content. Tutors encourage students to develop effective study skills and are chosen through a selective process based on staffing needs, faculty recommendations, interpersonal skills, experience and an interview with TLC staff. Tutors must have received a grade of B or better in the course(s) (or higher sequenced course) that they would like to tutor and attend training if selected for hire.
Writing consultants work with students in one-to-one sessions and assist faculty inside writing classrooms. They talk with students about their ideas, organization, and writing skills with the primary goal of helping students develop as writers.
SI Leaders facilitate out-of-class study sessions for historically difficult courses, helping students review notes, develop study tools, and prepare for exams. SI leaders are assigned to a specific course and instructor; they attend all class lectures, take notes, and act as model students, demonstrating effective study habits, strong organizational and leadership skills, and professionalism. They must have earned a B or higher in the course, be recommended by the course instructor, and commit to working 8-10 hours per week. Responsibilities include attending classes, recruiting participants, and leading two 50-minute SI sessions and one drop-in hour per week. SI Leaders meet weekly with the course instructor, plan sessions using interactive strategies (without re-teaching or completing assignments), and prepare materials such as handouts and quizzes. They also attend training, track session attendance, and submit session plans by 1pm the day before each session.
