Tutoring is free and available to all on and off campus students. Students who are recommended by professors are hired and trained by Hiram’s professional staff to become a peer tutor.

  • 1-on-1 Tutoring: Students who need tutoring during the 3-week, outside of the drop-in times, or cannot make the drop-in times – are able to request a 1-on-1 tutor. 1-on-1 tutoring is available for all students who are taking courses at Hiram College. These services can take place in-person or via Zoom.
