I am coming out of the program, not only having enjoyed the classes immensely, but feeling very motivated and now enjoying this meaningful and rewarding new  endeavor. So thank you all.

Course format

The course takes place mostly on Zoom, with two optional in-person meetings during the year on the Yellin College campus. We record the classes so, if occasionally you are unable to participate in a class or for review, you can watch the recording.

Practice tutoring with a student of your choice can be in person or online.

Duration: Two semesters, 6&8 academic hours per week, Thursdays: fall 8:30 –13:45, spring 8:30-15:30
