Library Learning Commons - Tutoring Services

TUTORING & WRITING CENTER SERVICES

The Library Learning Commons (LLC) is the central hub for tutoring at Bristol Community College, housing both the Writing Center and subject-based tutoring. With locations on each campus, through online and in-person appointments, LLC Tutoring and the Writing Center are here to help you achieve your educational goals, whether you’re here for just a few classes or to get a degree. 

Tutors are available to help you with study skills (note-taking, test preparation, etc.), specific course content questions, and all types of writing (including non-class-related writing). Whether you're looking to get on track, stay on track, or scale new heights in your learning, tutors are there to help you work towards reaching your next level.

Looking for tutoring that's available without an appointment? See our drop-in schedules, below. Please note that online and in-person drop-ins are in separate sections.

Looking to make a one-on-one appointment? You can search for and book tutoring appointments through TracCloud, or you can email OnlineLC@bristolcc.edu for our assistance. 

  • Please Note: We're able to cover more subjects by appointment than by drop-in. If you're looking for support in a class that doesn't have drop-in, or where the drop-in times aren't convenient for you, we recommend checking TracCloud or emailing us at OnlineLC@bristolcc.edu.

Working on a research assignment? If you'd like support with finding or citing sources, we recommend Book-a-Librarian, from our colleagues in Library Services.
