Here at the MSRC, our main goal is to help students learn and tutoring is our main interface to facilitate that.
Who Can Use the MSRC?
Current Temple Students Enrolled in Supported Courses:
The Math & Science Resource Center provides academic support to currently enrolled Temple University students in select math and science based courses. The following link will list the courses primarily served (http://www.temple.edu/msrc/tutoring/courses-served/).
Current Temple Students Enrolled in Upper Level/Other Quantitative-based Courses:
The MSRC may also be able to provide support to Temple students enrolled in some upper level courses or other quantitative-based University courses. Depending on the details of the course and the availability of tutoring resources, students can speak to the supervisor on duty in the lab to determine if a tutor is capable of helping out.
Non-Temple Students (i.e. Alumni, Middle & High School Students, etc.)
As a resource to the community at large, the MSRC can also provide academic support to local middle and high school students, with a school identification card, as well as alumni working on content the MSRC supports. Access to a tutor is available only when a current Temple student is not waiting for services. Please feel free to pre-visit the MSRC to speak with a tutoring lab supervisor or simply call our office for more details on getting tutoring for non-Temple students.
**Please note that minors (less than 18 years of age) using the Center must be accompanied by a parent or guardian for the entire tutoring session. Proof of age may be required.
Walk-in Tutoring
The MSRC provides walk-in tutoring for many courses. If you do not see your course on the list it does not mean we cannot help you. Please look at our tutoring schedules to see when tutoring is available in your subject.
Online Tutoring
The MSRC is proud to announce that it is now offering Online Tutoring accessible from Temple Ambler and Center City campuses. Online tutoring allows students to connect with a tutor on main campus via webchat and virtual whiteboard. This service can be used whenever our main campus tutoring center is open.
Review Sessions
The sessions are intended to help you get into exam mode. The material used in the review sessions, which is supplied to the MSRC by faculty and academic departments, is a sampling of concepts and is not all encompassing. There may be types of problems on the test that are not on a particular review. You will still be responsible for all material taught in class. All review problem sets and answer keys will be available on the MSRC Blackboard site.
Refreshing Math Skills with MyMathTest
Are you an incoming or current Temple student who could use a refresher in Pre-Algebra, Algebra, College Algebra or Precalculus? MyMathTest is a cost-effective, online program designed to allow students to work at their own pace and refresh their Math skills without taking a course.
Quick Question?
Do you have a brief question? Maybe we can save you a visit to the MSRC. Visit the Quick Question? page to view all the requirements for Quick Question? and fill out our online question form.
Tutoring by Appointment (This service has been suspended due to low usage)
The intent of tutoring by appointment is to facilitate the group learning/study group process. Groups of two or more students working together on common course material and assignments are encouraged to make an appointment when other avenues of academic support (i.e. working together on an assignment, following up with an instructor, etc.) are exhausted. If you don't have a study partner, it's a great time to get to know someone in class and take advantage of a longer tutoring time period with a tutor.
