Sophomore in Electrical Engineering

CARE has been particularly helpful over the course of my freshman year. The tutoring is a resource that I know I will be able to continually utilize, as they are very responsive and accommodating to my schedule. Having taken the classes before, the support that the tutors provide is very relevant and easy to understand. The CARE community is extremely welcoming, which provides a comfortable environment for asking questions. Not only have they been able to provide me with tutoring during the school year, but also over the summer. I look forward to using the CARE resources as I work my way to my Engineering degree!
