Study Support Committee: Tutoring Mailing List

Since we have heard that some students are having problems with certain courses, we would like to introduce you to your our new mailing list: tutoring@svcover.nl. This new mailing list is meant for two groups of students: students who want to help out with tutoring, and students who are looking for tutors to help them. Optionally, you can also offer/request payment for these services.

Do you need personal help with a course and do you want to have someone to tutor you in return for a small compensation? Send a request to tutoring@svcover.nl, with your name, your wishes and what you would be willing to pay.

Are you a student who is willing to tutor students? Subscribe to this mailing list to receive new requests.

Good luck with your courses!

The weekend will be at kampeerboederij Wouda at Appelscha. You'll have to travel to and from the site yourself, but it is reachable using public transit and a travelgroup will be organized so you don't have to travel alone. A packing list will be provided later on.
