Biology
ACC’s Biology Study Lab is staffed by ACC biology faculty members, instructors, and peer tutors. You can drop in anytime to meet with an instructor and receive help during our open scheduled hours. During times when there is not a study lab scheduled, you are welcome to use the room for individual or group study.

Student Expectations for Physical Science Tutoring
- Bring any resources that will help your tutor know what content you are working on (like class notes or assignment instructions).
- Bring a list of specific questions to ask (problems you need help with). Make sure to try each problem / assignment on your own first and bring your work so you and the tutor have a good starting point. Then the tutor can help you where you are getting stuck or help you fix your errors.
- A positive attitude and an open mind that views mistakes as an opportunity for growth and understanding.
- A willingness to try new things and be an active participant in the learning process.
