The Course Center

Room 0208 is set up in a way for you to be able to have a place to work on physics problems. There will be a variety of texts available, plus tables and whiteboards. This is a good place for groups to meet to discuss the homework. Helpers (TAs or me) will be available to answer questions or make suggestions in the course center at the times listed below.

The Slawsky Clinic

The Slawsky Clinic (in room 1214) is staffed by retired physicists who offer free tutoring. They are typically available for 121 students every day from 10-3.

Paid Tutors

Some students in this class have requested information about possible tutors. The Physics Department provides a list of graduate students in Physics who have expressed an interest in tutoring. We have no information about these tutors as to whether they would be appropriate for the method of teaching and learning in this class. If you choose to hire a tutor, I suggest that you control the issues to be discussed and ask a lot of questions. Click on their names to email to them.

You may contacts them by email to set up appointments and for information on fees. For other questions, check with Linda O'Hara in the Physics Department's Graduate Office in room 1120 (X55949).
