- STUDENT TUTOR SUBJECT STRENGTHS: As a rough guideline, (keeping in mind that helping all students takes precedence),
students are divided into 2 groups according to the classes they completed, and experience,
and therefore the subjects they feel most comfortable supporting. These are listed
below:
-- Math-48C group -- focus supporting Math-180, Math-105, Math-48A-48B-48C
-- Math-10 group -- focus on supporting Math-217, Math-17, Math-10

-
