Tutoring at QCC:

The goal of the Math Center and all of the Tutoring Centers at QCC is to help currently enrolled QCC students improve their course content knowledge and study skills by providing tutoring as a supplement to classroom and online learning.

Resources for math placement test preparation include:

• Three self-study booklets are available in the Math Center (206 HLC) and in the Advising Office at the Worcester and Southbridge campuses. Booklets include math topics in MAT 090 (to place into MAT 095), MAT 095 (to place into MAT 099) and MAT 099 (to place into MAT 100). Each booklet includes a brief explanation and practice problems with solutions for each topic.

• QCC Math Department YouTube channel is an excellent resource if you have placement test math questions from the booklets or the test.

Go to: http://www.youtube.com/user/QCCmath click on the course, look for the topic, and watch informative videos by QCC faculty.

• Additional practice placement test material and resources (including a free app) can be found at: http://accuplacer.collegeboard.org/students

• Math Boot Camps are free workshops offered by the QCC Math

Department. They are designed to refresh students’ math skills in order to prepare for success in math placement testing and college mathematics. Go to The Q for the schedule and the online registration form: http://www2.qcc.mass.edu/pub/mathBootCamp/frm.asp
