How it works
Setting up an appointment is easy. Use our online booking system to choose a service type, day and time that best fits your schedule. If you’d like to meet in person, note that in the special requests section. After you’ve made an appointment, a Student Success Coach will email you confirming the time and place of your session. This is where you’ll receive your session’s custom Zoom link!
Come to the session prepared by letting your coach know the specific questions or topics you’d like to cover before you meet. Participate actively in the tutoring session and watch your understanding and confidence soar. If something isn’t making sense, don’t be afraid to say so. We’re interested in learning and growing with you. Let us know how we’re doing by filling out the brief survey emailed to you after your session has ended.

Frequently asked questions
Are these tutoring services really free?
It's totally free! Visiting the Psychology Student Success Center won't cost you anything. The Department of Psychology prioritizes student success and has hired tutors to provide this service free of charge you and your peers.
What kind of appointment do I need?
Book "writing support" for general help in writing CV's, cover letters and scholarship applications. This is a great option if you have a smaller task or a quick question about your writing assignment. This session can be booked to help answer general questions about your success inside and outside of ASU, too.
"Psychology course support" caters to specific class needs in the field of psychology. For instance, If you need help studying for an exam, this is the session we advise booking!
Reserve "statistics support" for assistance in understanding statistical content and research methods.
"Neuroscience course support" pairs you with a Student Success Coach who can help answer your neuroscience questions. For example, if the homework for NEU 290 isn't making sense, secure this appointment type.
Why aren't more appointments available?
Our team of Student Success Coaches are students, too. They need time to study for classes and relax in between their tutoring sessions, so we've limited their individual availability to 10 hours a week.
If you believe the Psychology Student Success Center could benefit from additional Student Success Coaches, please provide that feedback! A survey will be emailed out to you after each tutoring session.
Will I be judged if I don't understand something?
Never. Our coaches are here to help you with all levels of questions.
