Make a meaningful difference in a student’s life!

Adult education teachers and tutors help bridge the gap between millions of Americans marginalized by their limited education and a job market that increasingly demands more advanced skills. Many of our students have been educationally under-served and have had negative experiences with prior schooling. Therefore, the EOC provides support services such as the EOC Tutoring Center.

The EOC Tutoring Center is a supportive environment where our students practice skills needed to achieve academic success. Tutors are available in a variety of subject areas to help students gain a deeper understanding of course content, prepare for exams such as the GED, or learn just for self-improvement. Tutors employ various instructional strategies to address a student’s needs and build their confidence. EOC also offers quality online tutoring by means of our Virtual Tutoring Lab.

For Fall 2023, the EOC Tutoring Lab is seeking tutors qualified to tutor English for Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL), Math, and Science. Preference will be given to applicants who are qualified and willing to tutor multiple subjects.
