Tutoring services are available free of charge to all currently enrolled students, regardless of number of credits. The tutor center on the Wenatchee campus and the learning support center on the Omak campus provide a dynamic atmosphere of collaborative learning.

The goal of tutoring is to provide supplemental instructional support that will enhance the educational experience at WVC.

WVC students must be currently enrolled in the class for which tutoring is requested. Additionally, we are not available to tutor high school or middle school subjects taught at area schools or home schools.

We try to have math tutors available for Math 90 - Math 142 every hour the tutor center is open.

No appointment is necessary.  All tutoring is done on a drop-in basis.  The tutor center maintains a relaxed environment - please come in and have a seat. Tutors on duty will be wearing purple lanyards with ID cards.  

We are usually busiest during the morning hours.  Because the number of students requesting tutoring may exceed the number of tutors working at any given time, we ask for your patience.
