Information on Tutoring

An Accudemia Kiosk is a specific software tool used on a physical computer station placed in many tutoring space on campus. SBCC online tutors have a version that can be operated from their computers at home. When using the software in spaces where a physical kiosk is not available, the tutor will use the software on their personal computer to make the sign-in selections for the student. 

The information that is gathered through Accudemia will be vital to demonstrate the positive impact you and your fellow tutors have on student success.
