Welcome!
The Math Lab exists to assist students in becoming the best math student they can be. Below you can learn how to schedule a tutoring session and how to excel as a math student.
Math Tutoring
Located in LAC 320, student tutors are available during working hours which are posted outside the door. You stop by during the posted hours – no appointment is necessary. You can also email MathLab@point.edu and request an appointment for a Zoom tutoring session.
Have your questions ready when you arrive or when you join the Zoom meeting.
Math Success
- Show up for class physically and mentally.
- Take detailed notes and ask questions while in class. Math is not a spectator sport. You must participate.
- Complete most (if not all) of the assigned homework the same day the material is covered in class. Make note of any questions you may have along the way.
- Upon returning to class, ask your questions. Show up early and ask your instructor before class if you prefer not to talk in class.
- If you feel stuck or confused at any point, ask questions! Talk to your instructor and/or meet with a tutor. If you wait even two days, you will be that much more behind. Remember, math always builds on previous lessons. You must understand those to successfully move forward.
- Try to understand why we move from one step to another instead of trying to memorize the steps.
- Ask questions!
