We are here to help!


CWU’s CB Tutoring program includes Peer-Assisted Learning (PAL) sessions and Subject-Specific Tutoring designed to support students in targeted ways. PAL sessions are structured, collaborative group meetings led by trained student leaders who have successfully completed the course, helping peers review key concepts, practice problem-solving, and develop effective study strategies. Subject-Specific Tutoring offers one-on-one or small group support tailored to a particular course, allowing students to focus on challenging material, clarify questions, and strengthen understanding. Both options provide a supportive, encouraging environment to help students succeed academically.

Tutoring is located in Shaw-Smyser 413 (CAT Center) - if you would like to set up a tutoring appointment, please watch this video.
