One-on-One Subject Tutoring Services

University of Maryland Global Campus offers one-on-one subject tutoring at no cost via Tutor.com for select undergraduate and graduate courses (listed below, under each subject). Each student has ten hours of no-cost tutoring each month on the Tutor.com platform, which is accessed through your course classroom.

Working One-on-One with a Professional Tutor and a Peer Tutor

Subject tutors can help define and explain concepts, clarify examples from course content, and guide students toward understanding a particular topic. They cannot answer specific questions related to any homework, quiz, exam, or major project. These questions should be directed to the professor, who is the course’s primary contact.

  • Professional tutors are experts in the subjects that they support and can provide examples and explanations beyond the course content. They are available for on-demand and scheduled sessions.
  • Peer tutors are knowledgeable about the subjects that they support and can draw from their own learning experience in a course to assist you. They are available only for scheduled sessions for a select group of courses.

To request a one-on-one tutoring session:

  • Go to the "Academic Support" or "Resources" tab at the top of your course page.

Additional Support

UMGC offered tutoring. I would sign up for the tutoring in the evenings and on the weekends, and for additional help and it helped tremendously. I ended up graduating with straight A's.
