• Consult the schedule online or posted in the center to find out when a particular staff member will be working.
• Talk and work with other students in the center who have similar questions.
• Visit the center consistently throughout the semester.
• Don't wait until exam weeks to come in. There will be more opportunities for individual attention during non-exam weeks.
• Check the center web page for special review sessions for your course.
• Make sure you have reviewed your notes and tried the problem ahead of time. 
• Have questions ready. Be proactive asking questions.
• The tutoring session is about building on your understanding and is not a place to get answers.
• Do not expect the tutors to develop a lecture over the material. They are here to clarify misunderstandings on course material and to answer questions.
