Successful students start strong, they find ways to stay strong, and they finish strong.
We know that our best students seek tutoring early – while they are still doing well in courses – rather than waiting until their grades are suffering.
UH is committed to empowering you toward a strong and successful semester through these free peer-tutoring class-support options.

LAUNCH
LAUNCH is the UH Learning Center, offering one-on-one academic coaching, success workshops, and in-person peer tutoring. Tutoring is offered as a drop-in, first come first served basis – there is no appointment necessary.
Tutoring hours are different for each semester and are subject to change.
LAUNCH also has P.A.S.S. Sessions (Peer Assisted Study Sessions) in which a tutor has prepared extra practice, reviews, or activities to help you succeed in the class.
