CCSF ESL TUTORING SERVICES

ESL Small Groups - These are sessions composed of up to ten students at once. These group sessions cover Grammar, Listening/Speaking, Reading, and ESL through Computers. You may choose any of these groups at any time. Although you are not committed for the entire semester, you may want to stay with a group that you like for as long as your schedule allows to benefit as much as you can.

Individual Tutoring - These are one-on-one tutorial sessions with instructors. You may come with any range of questions - from specific help with a grammar point to help with your essay. These are the sessions you want to go to if you need help with organization of your paper, brainstorming ideas for a thesis, and other composition problems. Students in ESL 140 and above (including ESL learners in regular English classes) can profit the most from these sessions. Please come to these tutoring sessions with a copy of the written assignment from your instructor, and make your questions as specific as possible. Be aware that at peak times (the middle of the day), you may have to wait a long time for a tutor. Put your name on a sign-up sheet when you arrive, and students are served according to the order on the list.
