Connecting with a Tutor 

To make an on campus or online tutoring appointment, call or email the Tutoring Office at 254-968-9293 or tutoring@tarleton.edu. If needed, please also contact our office to reschedule or cancel existing appointments. 

On Campus Appointments:

Advanced appointments (made by 5pm the business day prior to the appointment) are needed for on campus tutoring. The Tutoring Office is open Monday – Friday, 8am – 5pm. On campus tutoring appointments are conducted in the Rickett Library Learning Commons. Procedures for on campus tutoring appointments will be discussed prior to the appointment.

Online Appointments:

Advanced online appointments can be made through the Tutoring Office. Additionally, same day, or drop-in appointments are available online during the tutors hours of availability. To make a same day appointment outside of the Tutoring Office's regular business hours (after 5pm on a weekday or on Saturday), you will need to email the tutor directly:

• Writing Lab: Cassie Samuelson at sw_csamuelson@tarleton.edu
• Accounting Lab: Steven Roberts at sw_sroberts@tarleton.edu

Once you have made an appointment, you will be contacted by the tutor through your Tarleton email. You will receive your unique GoBoard ID or link that will connect you to them. Please check your Tarleton email for a message from your tutor.

If you would like to explore the features of GoBoard on your own, possibly before your appointment, follow these steps:

1. Go to: tarleton.goboard.com
2. Click “Create a new GoBoard” and then “I’m a Student”.
