What is the Think Tank? It’s all of the UA’s tutoring and academic support programs under one roof!
The Think Tank at the Student Academic Learning Center is the new home of the Writing Center, Math and Science tutoring, Tier 1 and Second Language tutoring, Supplemental Instruction, and Peer Mentoring.
The Tank provides both free and fee-based services to meet the diverse needs of all UA students.
Please note that most tutors who tutor upper division courses are capable of tutoring lower-division courses, but not always the other way around.
Please call our main number, 626-0530, for day-to-day information and to find out about additional tutoring opportunities offered by UA Colleges and Departments at other locations.

One-on-one appointments available for students who need more specialized, individual help. Fees are involved.
Don’t stress over that big paper – we can help! Come by any afternoon for drop-in writing tutoring or make a free appointment with one of our Peer Tutors.
Free, weekly one-hour study sessions. Peer Tutors work with groups of about 15-20 students to review course content, clarify assignments, identify potential test questions and provide general academic help.
Feeling overwhelmed in general? Peer mentors are experienced undergraduate students familiar with the UA and available during drop-in hours to share successful academic practices. Get help with time management, note-taking, reading strategies, and exam preparation.
Need more specialized, individual support to learn how to best manage the demands of college? Our Learning Specialists are professional staff members and graduate students available by appointment to evaluate your academic strengths and weaknesses, and help you create a personal study plan.
Two Academic Specialists are available to conduct one-on-one, hourly appointments for a fee. These Graduate Assistants go beyond tutoring to help you identify potential problem areas in specific classes, discuss and prioritize assignments, apply note-taking and study strategies, and connect you to campus resources.
Don’t panic when preparing for that big midterm or final! Fee-based two-hour group exam preparation sessions are available for select classes.
