- Add your appointment to your Google calendar through the link provided in your confirmation email!
- When in doubt, book more time than you think you need to!
- You may upload your rubric, directions, and assignment in advance when booking. Your tutor may or may not have time to review your work, but this expedites the process.
- Essays on Google Docs work better than Microsoft Word. You may share your doc with your tutor upon arrival and go over it together.
