How to prepare for your online tutoring appointment:

To make the most effective use of your time, you need to be prepared for the online session.

  • We recommend that you use Firefox as your browser for the online session. Please download and install prior to your appointment.
  • You will need to have a computer with microphone (and headphones recommeded) in order to communicate with the tutor online. To test your system and hardware, visit the Wimba Setup Wizard.
  • Have specific question(s) ready to ask.
  • Know where problems/examples/concepts are located in the textbook (page, chapter, section)
  • If you want to discuss problems and/or homework you are working on, have your hardcopy work scanned into a jpeg file so it can be uploaded, discussed, and reviewed by you and the tutor.
