ELITE News and Events

Do you find yourself struggling with a particular aspect of your graduate education?  That’s okay – it happens to everyone, and there is a simple way to fix the problem. Your graduate education is too valuable for you to sit in classes feeling confused when assistance is out there.

If you are considering getting tutored, you should first ask your professor to identify the areas where you should focus your efforts. That way, you can approach our tutors knowing the specifics about what you need help with.

Our tutors can help you with:

• Quantitative Statistics
• Qualitative Statistics
• Reading and writing skills
• Time management skills
• Note-taking
• Test-taking and review
• Problem solving
• Stress management

ELITE Tutoring is for all Texas A&M-Corpus Christi graduate students.
