The Center for Teaching and Learning (CTL)
The Center for Teaching and Learning (CTL) provides students with free academic support services including tutoring, computer-based tutorials, and subject study groups. We are dedicated to preparing students for academic success. Members of the CTL work with various academic departments and student services to ensure that we provide quality support for our diverse student population. We work together with the faculty to address individual concerns and retention issues regarding the needs of all students at Wentworth.

The CTL is staffed by peer and faculty tutors who are available to assist students in mathematics and sciences, as well as many major specific, technical areas. The CTL is also staffed by professional writing tutors, from whom students may receive assistance with questions about writing papers at any stage of the writing process, such as brainstorming ideas, conducting research, preparing outlines and correcting grammar and sentence structure.

Students are encouraged to make appointments, but may also drop in for assistance. Students may also receive help with computer programming, computer-aided research on the Internet, and word processing, using several PCs that are linked to the Institute's computer network.

Located in 402 Beatty Hall, the CTL is open Monday through Friday between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. each semester. (Evening and weekend hours are also available and vary by semester.) Students may check the CTL web site on LConnect under Academic Resources for the mission statement, appointment scheduler and a complete listing of services. They may also check the bulletin board located outside of the office for information on hours and subjects.

Academic Advising
The goals of the Wentworth's Academic Advising Program are to advise, to inform, and to mentor.

Academic Advisors help students complete and achieve success within their respective academic programs. Advisors, who are usually Wentworth faculty, guide students in their academic choices/actions and the impact those choices/actions may have on their careers.

Wentworth believes that informed students making educated decisions develop critical thinking and decision-making skills. Such a process aids in developing self-sufficiency and self-confidence needed in the working world.
