Policies:

1. Attendance Policy: You are allowed 2 misses/cancellations. On your third miss or cancellation your remaining appointments will be cancelled. You will be allowed to use the QRC tutors by first speaking with Julia Berkowitz, Director of the QRC. 

2. Coming in to say that you have “nothing to work on” or canceling for that reason is considered a missed appointment. You always have something to work on (i.e. corrections for past quizzes and/or tests, review difficult concepts, preview upcoming material).

3. If you need to cancel due to a conflict, ask to reschedule instead of canceling. Please contact the Director, Julia Berkowitz: berkowitz@mx.lakeforest.edu

4. If you need to cancel due to illness, we have remote Zoom tutoring as an option. Please contact the Director Julia Berkowitz: berkowitz@mx.lakeforest.edu

3. Come prepared. Homework must be attempted to the best of your ability. Come prepared with your notes, textbook, and questions. Use this time to clarify concepts and problems or to review for assessments.

You are allowed to schedule one additional appointment during the week, as needed.  PLease contact the Director, Julia Berkowitz: berkowitz@mx.lakeforest.edu
