about TutorTrac
1.
What is TutorTrac?
TutorTrac is La Salle University’s on-line tutoring
appointment management system.
2.
What does TutorTrac do?
TutorTrac enables La Salle students to search for tutors
in a variety of subject areas and to schedule tutoring
appointments. However, math tutoring, except for very
limited tutoring in Math 114 and Math 150, is not available
for scheduling through TutorTrac. Math tutoring is organized
by the Math department and is available on a drop-in
basis in the Math Lab that is located in 124 Olney Hall.
The Math department will post the Math Lab schedule.
3.
How does TutorTrac work?
TutorTrac allows students to view both the subjects
for which tutors are available and the list of available
tutors in specific subjects. Students can then choose
a tutor based on subjects offered and tutors’
time availability. TutorTrac will email both student
and tutor a reminder of the appointment.

Anyone enrolled at La Salle can schedule a writing center
appointment, and any enrolled undergraduate can access
general tutoring through TutorTrac.

on a drop-in basis if a tutor is available (Olney Hall

necessary to schedule an appointment.
