Techie Tutoring
At Purdue Polytechnic, we are committed to empowering students with the tools and support they need to excel academically and personally. Our Techie Tutoring program offers personalized peer-to-peer support, connecting students with peers who have successfully navigated the same courses. This service is available in-person or online and is free to all Polytechnic students studying at West Lafayette, Indianapolis and statewide locations across the state.
Peer to Peer support & tutoring
If you're having trouble understanding course material, if your grades or recent feedback suggest you're not quite grasping the content, or if you're finding it challenging to adjust to the demands of college coursework, support from Techie Tutoring can help. You'll have access to individual or small group sessions, guidance from a peer who has succeeded in that class, and flexible meeting times that fit your schedule.
