Tutors at these events will be available to quickly help you with most of your tutoring needs. CBC’s tutoring events are perfect for students who want to drop by and get some tutoring or quick help with their homework, upcoming research paper, or a big test. We’ll help you make the grade you’ve worked hard for! We’ll even provide snacks, food, and drinks to keep your energy and grades up at our tutoring events. It’s just another way that CBC rocks! We focus on teaching students new study techniques and note taking skills that will foster student and academic success.
