\"homework-help-clip-art-269961\"On the first floor of the San Jose City College Student Center behind rows of computers lies the Tutoring Center where students frequently come to do homework, and study for their upcoming classes.\u00a0 New this semester is online tutoring for students who are unable to be on-campus, and students are appreciative of the new tool they can use.<\/p>\n

Joselin Iranheta, 22, currently majoring in environmental engineering, a student for two years at SJCC thinks this is another great tool to have for students.<\/p>\n

\u201cLet\u2019s say you\u2019re stuck home and you don\u2019t get the day off, it\u2019s definitely a great tool to get help at home,\u201d said Joselin Iranheta.<\/p>\n

Louie Andrew Soriano, 23, majoring in mechanical engineering uses the tutoring center three times a week. He likes the idea of online tutoring, but still prefers interacting with a tutor on-campus.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am not into learning online. I prefer to interact with the instructor face to face. It actually discourages me to learn if it\u2019s done online. I would only use online tutoring for minor su\"Tutoringbjects like history. Nothing major, \u201csaid Soriano.<\/p>\n

With more and more state and junior colleges making budget cuts in the Bay Area, the introduction of online tutoring comes in at odd time.\u00a0 Could the Reading and Writing Center now have fewer tutors this semester with this addition?<\/p>\n

Teresa McKimmey, English Instructor, RWC Faculty Coordinator, intends online tutoring to only be companion.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe ‘virtual’ RWC\u00a0was created to address the needs of many distance education students who\u00a0take online classes and cannot travel to our campus on a regular basis, but still need extra help with challenging writing assignments,\u201dMcKimmey said.<\/p>\n

Mckimmey hopes to enroll between 30 and 50 students this semester in the Online RWC. For the complete list of services offered at the tutoring center are available on the SJCC website in the Current Student section.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
