Dear Faculty,
As a result of Covid-19 and to ensure the safety of our students and faculty, we must move quickly to online modality. We acknowledge that both student and instructor may feel anxiety about moving into this new realm, but we will go through this journey together.
We ask that you enter this process with an open mind. As we try to address every possible scenario, we know that there will be some things that we might have missed, do not go as planned, or create frustration. This will challenge all of us, however, we are confident that together, we will make this a successful transition.
Please bookmark this page. We will provide updates as we continue on this journey.
Sincerely,
St. Augustine College

Invite leaders, faculty and staff across higher education for focused and practical discussions on:
SAC Tutoring Resources
The Tutoring Committee has been working diligently with St. Augustine College tutors to ensure tutors continue to provide effective on-line tutoring. Please know we are there to support students.
There are different types of tutoring arrangements, class-specific, student specific, writing, math, and content-specific to meet everyone’s needs. Once a tutoring session is scheduled, the tutor will send a go-to-meeting invitation to the student(s) for the tutoring session.
Class-specific Tutoring
For some class rooms in which instructors have made themselves available to tutor their students, students will continue to maintain contact with their instructors directly. Instructor/Tutors please provide information with your students regarding how to make appointments with you for class.
Student/Tutor Semester Long Arrangements
For students who have individual ongoing tutoring with one tutor, these arrangements remain in place. Tutors have been contacting these students to ensure continuity of services in the last couple of weeks. If a student has not heard from his or her tutor, please contact the Tutoring Center Director at TutoringCenterDirector@staugustine.edu and request assistance.
