Welcome to the Learning Center (TLC) at Skyline College!

The Learning Center Philosophy:

Through a close collaboration between faculty, tutors, and students, the Learning Center empowers students to be responsible, active learners. The Learning Center is a flexible learning environment providing academic support for students in most Skyline courses through supplemental instruction, peer tutoring, workshops, and computer-assisted learning. We are ready to assist you with writing, reading, math, science, or other college courses!

Program Learning Outcomes

Upon completion of the program students will be able to:

• Increase awareness of strengths and challenges in academic work
• Seek assistance from various and appropriate services on campus                          
• Increase personal development in areas such as self-monitoring, time management, persistence, and academic proficiency

What you should know about academic assistance or tutoring:

1. Students must be enrolled in a Learning Center (LSKL) course to receive supplemental instruction or peer tutoring.
2. Students are responsible for recording their hours accurately on each visit by logging in at the front desk computer.
3. Academic assistance requires students to take responsibility for their own learning.

Academic assistance is provided through the Learning Center Labs -- Find out more here!
