QUANTITATIVE LEARNING FOR EVERYONE
About
Housed in the Tiger Learning Commons of the Library, the Quantitative Reasoning and Skills (QRS) Center is part of Trinity’s robust network of academic success for students. We provide students with drop-in support for introductory-level courses with a quantitative component. In particular, we have course tutors for lower-division mathematics courses, as well as tutors to support students in chemistry, economics, and engineering science, among other quantitative disciplines.
Tutoring Support Areas
The QRS Center offers students personalized, one-on-one assistance with academic endeavors involving mathematics or statistics, including:
Peer tutoring in quantitatively-demanding coursework (e.g., mathematics, statistics, physics, economics, etc.)
Structured support in the ALEKS learning modules to help with course placement
Help preparing for academic endeavors involving mathematics or statistics (e.g., preparing for the GRE)
Help developing your skills in mathematics- or statistics-related software, such as R or LaTeX
Tutoring Hours
Sunday through Thursday, 3-9 p.m.
We provide drop-in help with nearly any course with a quantitative component. You do not need to make an appointment to visit. Check out the QRS Center tutoring schedule to see when particular tutors are working.
Prepare for your Tutoring Session
Because learning is an active process, it is important that you wrestle with the problems or material prior to visiting with your tutor, as well as follow up after the session with self-study and practice. Once you have worked through problems and formulated questions, be sure to bring them to your visit with the tutor. Additionally, to benefit the most from this resource, we highly recommend staying in contact with your course instructor and visiting office hours regularly.
