The Mathematics Department runs a free virtual tutoring center staffed by undergraduates. No appointment is necessary. Just stop by with your textbook and homework, get to work, and ask your questions as they arise. The Center is open five days a week and serves students registered for MATH 6A, 40, 45, 50, 61, 61A, 71, and 72.
Schedule
Online Mathematics Tutoring will start on Monday, February 8.
To all students in Math 6A, 40, 45, 50, 61A, 71, or 72
The schedule for Zoom tutoring for Fall 2020 will be posted soon.
How to access the Zoom Room
On blackboard, first locate the course titled Math Tutoring in which you see a link on the left menu named Zoom Room. Then follow the steps below:
- When you click the Zoom Room, it will take you to the schedule.
- Then click Join.
- If prompted (this maybe unnecessary), follow the on-screen instructions to download and install the Zoom software.
- If prompted, click Join with Computer Audio.
If you are planning to use a tablet or phone, you’ll need to download the app in advance. In that case, the way to log in is by selecting SSO to sign in and entering “Hofstra” as the company domain. This will redirect you to your Hofstra portal.
Some tips:
- Use the Microphone/Mute button to turn the microphone on/off and adjust settings. Use the Start Video buttons to turn the webcam on/off and adjust settings.
- Click Share to open a screen share to show a document you would like to share, including a wrd file, a pdf file, PowerPoints, websites, etc.
- Click Chat to open up the chat text box.
If you have any questions, you may contact the coordinator, Dr. Mmmmo at matbzm@hofstra.edu
