The Academic Support Center (ASC) provides free individual tutoring sessions. Our tutors have been recommended by faculty members, have a strong understanding of the content material and have a desire to help others succeed. Tutoring is available in all the disciplines and in most courses offered across campus; however, because we utilize peer tutors and some courses are offered alternate years, we cannot always guarantee we can find you a tutor. 

MATH & SCIENCE TUTORS are on duty at various times during the day and evening in The Studio, located within the ASC (Lower level of the Pilgrim Library). These math & science tutors can help you with Quantitative Reasoning, College Algebra, Pre-Calculus, and Calculus I as well as  Introductory Science courses, such as Environment  Around US, Principles of Biology I & II, Chemistry Around Us, General Chemistry I & II, Earth in the Cosmos, and The Development of Life on Earth . Simply make an appointment and then go to the ASC on the day/time of your appointment to meet with a tutor for math and/or science assistance. 

To assist our students, we also subscribe to free online tutoring from OhioLINK eTutoring.  You can access this free tutoring service using your Defiance College email to sign up. For more information check out this webpage:  https://library.defiance.edu/ASC/e-tutoring

To learn more about any of the tutoring options contact Jordan Gehring, Academic Support Center Director, at jgehring@defiance.edu or 419-783-2495.

To request a subject tutor, simply complete the online Tutor Request Form available on this webpage or complete a paper form (available in the ASC - the form is on yellow paper).  Once a tutor has been secured for you, the tutor will reach out to you to identify the best days/times for meeting.
