Tiger Learning Center
The Tiger Learning Center offers a variety of tutoring and study services.
Tutoring Options
No idea where to start on your essay? Confused by citations? Perplexed by that math problem? Need help on your science homework? The Tiger Learning Center has what you need! At the Tiger Learning Center, students receive free support on many subjects including math, science, and on any writing assignment for any class at any stage in the writing process. We are excited to offer these services in person and online!
The Tiger Learning Center provides many services. We offer traditional one-on-one writing tutoring with faculty and peer tutors. Just want to ask a couple questions? No problem! You can come work on your own in the computer lab and ask questions as you work. The Tiger Learning Center hosts writing groups and events, including the Finals Study Party at the end of each semester.
No need to make an appointment, so stop by today!

The Tiger Learning Center provides feedback on writing assignments through email. To receive feedback, email an attached Word document (NOT a PDF or file link) of your work to TLC@cowley.edu with the following pieces of information*:
Your name, ID number, the course, and the instructor
The assignment directions, prompt, and due date
Identify 1-2 of the following categories of assistance:
- Page Format (formatting your paper according to MLA style guidelines)
- Point of View (assuring your paper contains a consistent perspective according to academic standards, eliminating 2nd person. *Be sure your assignment guidelines are included)
- Documentation (Works Cited, Parenthetical/In-text Citations, and proper introduction and qualification of sources)
- Paragraph Logic (assuring your paper follows the organization of your thesis with well-developed introductory, body, and concluding paragraphs)
*We cannot review papers without information about who you are, what the assignment is, and what you need help with. If this information is omitted, we will reply to your email to request what is missing. We will not begin our review until this information is provided.
During open hours, we will return a copy of your assignment with our comments to you in a timely manner. Typically, we can return a paper within 24 hours. HOWEVER, during busy periods (especially close to common deadlines) it can take longer. It is YOUR responsibility to ensure you send papers with enough time to receive feedback and implement changes before the due date. Remember that we do not monitor email when the TLC is closed.
Keep in mind that we are not an editing service and will not fix all your mistakes. Instead, we will provide advice and resources to help you revise the paper on your own, just like we would in a live tutoring session.
