Attendance

Attendance must be maintained at a 95% rate. (You can miss no more than a total of 4 classes.)

Written permission must be obtained to miss class or it's considered one of your 4 absences.

Homework

You must complete 90% of the homework assignments. (You can miss no more than 2 assignments.)

Homework submissions must be on time AS IS.

  • Late submissions will not be counted.

Projects

You must give a full effort on every group and individual project.

Class Videos

Supplemental videos will be made available after lessons to help support your learning.

Tutoring One-to-One sessions

Tutoring Sessions will be made available to you if needed.

These sessions require that you have turned in homework and are in good standing with your attendance.

How the system works:

  1. If you are interested in tutoring, you must meet David first during office hours. David will refer student to Shani if additional support is required. You must also meet the attendance and homework requirements (No more than 4 missed classes and no more than 2 missed homework assignments)

Keep in mind any time zone differences. Please make sure to discuss it with your tutor. This issue has created a few missed sessions in the past.

Sessions should be 45 minutes in length. Once a week via a video using Google Hangouts.

  1. At the end of each session, discuss scheduling the next session with your tutor directly.

  2. Both the tutor and the student are required to fill out an evaluation form after EACH session. Data is very important to the ongoing success of Central Support. Every tutor assignment email has the link to the Student’s Evaluation Form.

  • If a student No-Shows to a session, the student may not be eligible for tutoring in the future.

  • If student needs to change the appointment communicate with your tutor immediately.
