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.
