Tutoring and time that works for me


Tutoring at the Excel Languages Center

The Excel Languages Center (LC) offers free tutoring to support students in their language learning journey. Whether you're enrolled in a UCCS language course or are an independent learner, our peer tutors are here to help you build confidence, improve proficiency, and develop effective language-learning strategies.

Our mission is to help students succeed in language learning through personalized tutoring, conversational practice, and skill-building strategies. We provide a welcoming and inclusive space where students can strengthen their language abilities and gain cultural insights.

What We Offer:

  • Individual and group tutoring: Receive one-on-one or small-group support tailored to your needs, whether you need help with grammar, pronunciation, listening comprehension, or writing.
  • Conversation tables: Practice speaking in an informal setting with other learners and tutors to build fluency and confidence.
  • Language learning strategies: Get guidance on effective study techniques, vocabulary retention, and best practices for language acquisition.
  • Cultural and linguistic insights: Gain a deeper understanding of cultural nuances and real-world language use beyond the classroom.
  • Academic support: Tutors work closely with faculty to ensure that tutoring aligns with course objectives and student learning goals.

Who Are Our Tutors?

Our tutors are UCCS students who have excelled in their language studies and are trained to support their peers. They understand the challenges of language learning firsthand and are committed to fostering a positive and encouraging learning environment.

Benefits of Tutoring

Working with a tutor provides numerous advantages, including:

  • Increased confidence: Overcome language barriers and gain the skills to communicate effectively.
  • Accelerated learning: Learn strategies to improve retention and apply your language skills more efficiently.
  • Personalized support: Get targeted help based on your unique learning style and goals.
  • Community and collaboration: Join a supportive environment where you can engage with fellow language learners.

 

Tutoring begins the first week of classes each semester and ends the last week of classes. (There is limited tutoring during finals week.)


If your personal schedule prevents you from attending one of our open sessions, you may contact us to inquire about setting up a one-on-one tutoring session. This is addressed on a case-by-case basis due to Tutor and administrative availability. Whenever possible, these sessions will also take place in the LC but we will continue to utilize Microsoft Teams in certain circumstances.  

Please never hesitate to communicate your individual Excel Languages Center needs to us. If you need support outside of the posted days/hours, please email LANGSCTR@uccs.edu with a detailed request with your availability and the Excel Languages Center Director—Dr. Jesse Perez --will work with you to support your needs to the best of our ability.
