OUR MISSION
The mission of the Tutoring Center is to assist students in becoming independent learners with an interest in lifelong learning. This work is accomplished through a caring staff of peer and expert tutors dedicated to fostering a positive, respectful, and growth-oriented learning environment. Tutors share their knowledge with students, explaining difficult concepts and serving as a sounding board to illuminate course content, while helping students to develop the critical thinking skills needed to solve their own problems and find their own solutions. Tutors impart encouragement, inspiration, motivation, and confidence, empowering students to successfully complete their courses, and develop their learning and study skills.

Our Mission
The Fullerton College Writing Center strives to uphold the mission statement for Fullerton College:
Fullerton College advances student learning by developing flexible pathways for students from our diverse communities who seek educational and career growth, certificates, associate degrees, and transfer. We foster a supportive and inclusive environment for students to be successful learners, responsible leaders, and engaged community members.
More specifically, the Writing Center’s mission is to promote students’ success and independence as writers in college and beyond. We also strive to provide an environment that is conducive to writing and learning and to serve as a model for peer interaction. We help writers make their own choices about a text rather than “fixing” papers for them. We don’t write on students’ papers; we counsel students about the choices they have as writers.
Services Offered include:
- Free one-on-one writing consultations with trained tutors
- Assistance with all stages of the writing process in all disciplines
- In-person, Zoom, and asynchronous appointments available
- Students may book up to three, half-hour appointments per week
- Additional time available for DSS and EOPS students
