How do I refer a student to the ASC for academic support?
If you feel a student would benefit from meeting with a tutor or academic coach, here are some ways you can direct them to the ASC for support.
Ask the student to search the TracCloud schedule for a tutoring appointment, drop-in help desk, or review workshop for their course. A link to TracCloud for students and faculty can be found in the HUB applications list. TracCloud support is available for students who require assistance with the appointment booking process.
Ask the student to complete a Tutoring and Coaching Request Form. This short intake form asks students to identify their learning goals and the type of support needed - course tutoring, academic coaching, academic writing supports or English language tutoring. ASC staff will respond to students by email within 3 business days and provide information about how to connect with any ASC supports that relate to the student's needs.

Submit a referral on the student's behalf. Faculty may flag students for ASC supports by referring them through TracCloud, the ASC's schedule and management software. For full details on how to use TracCloud to submit a referral for students in your classes, visit this web page.
Send an email about the student to tutoring@rrc.ca. Send us the student's name, ID number, and details about the course content that the student needs support with. An ASC staff will follow-up with the student and connect them with a tutor, if available.
What are the different types of tutoring options available to students?
Students may access Peer Tutoring (Individual/Group), Staff Tutoring (Individual/Group), on-demand appointment bookings, and drop-in Review Workshops for targeted courses. Please note that at this time, ASC tutoring and academic supports are delivered online, with exceptions for on-campus tutoring made possible on a case by case basis.
Why should I refer students for tutoring?
As instructors and staff, you have tremendous influence and can help students recognize that they benefit from accessing the ASC's Academic Supports. Students are more likely to contact us for support if you connect them to our services and ensure they made a tutoring appointment.
Can I tell the tutor what I would like the student to work on in their tutoring sessions?
Absolutely! Our tutors welcome your suggestions for areas of improvement. Please let your student know what you would like them to work on and ask them to share this with their tutor. You may also forward your suggestions to tutoring@rrc.ca and an ASC staff will pass along your suggestions to the student's tutor.
Is tutoring free at Red River College Polytechnic?
Yes, all academic supports at Red River College Polytechnic are free to students actively enrolled in a course at the college.
What happens if a student misses a tutoring appointment?
Students are required to provide a minimum of 24-hours notice to cancel an appointment. Appointments cancelled less that 24-hours before the appointment start-time are marked as missed. After three missed appointments, a student must speak with the Tutoring Supervisor before booking future appointments.
Courses with tutors available are listed below. Students enrolled in any of these courses are invited to book tutoring appointments through TracCloud, or join a study group by submitting a Tutor Request Form.
