The Academic Skills Achievement Program (ASAP), a campus-wide student-oriented program, is open to all students and offers peer tutoring services. It seeks to provide high-quality learning assistance in computer technology, math, science, writing, languages and study strategies aimed at meeting a variety of learning needs at all ability levels. ASAP works with students to expand their knowledge and abilities by empowering them to become independent learners. ASAP tutors, staff, and faculty work together to design and offer effective, collaborative, and active learning experiences. We provide  tutors with the opportunity to develop teaching, leadership, and communication skills.

 

In accordance with the CSUMB Vision Statement, ASAP staff and tutors:

Respect all students' need to seek assistance and to maintain confidentiality regarding their academic and personal concerns.

Subscribe to the belief that each individual is unique and requires a personalized approach for academic achievement.

Understand our professional limitations in order to determine whether or not to deliver assistance directly or to refer the student to another resource.

Address students' needs efficiently & effectively in decision making.

Respect learner diversity, treat all students fairly and equitably, and recognize and respect individual rates of development.

Work with students to expand their knowledge and abilities by empowering them to become independent learners.
