Locations and Times

I see students at the following local libraries during their regular hours:

• Goodwood

Days available

• During the school year, I tutor on Sundays from 2-6, and Mondays – Thursdays, 3:30-8:30. Saturdays are by request only.
• During mid-term and final exams, I have hours available 7 days a week.
• During the summer, I tutor on Mondays-Thursdays, usually in the mid-morning to mid-afternoon. Summer weekend sessions can be made available by request.
• ALL hours are by appointment.

Each day I will be at one location. I don’t go to multiple locations in one day. I usually use 2 locations per week, 2 days at one and 3 days at the other. Sometimes it works out to be three locations per week, 2 days at one, 2 at the next, and 1 at the third.

Session locations and scheduled hours are made on a first come first served basis.
