Study sessions and tutoring

Most Northwestern courses come with a peer tutor who’s available for one-on-one and group study outside of class. Handpicked by the professor, peer tutors are students who’ve successfully taken the class and been trained by Peer Learning Center professionals. In addition to explaining the course material, answering questions and helping you study for exams, they can also help you learn how to study and manage your time. The PLC also offers regular study centers for students who want after-class assistance in accounting, computer science, math, science and Spanish.
