The Fisher College Academic Center for Enrichment (ACE) upholds the mission of the College by helping students become independent learners, critical thinkers and successful students. ACE strives to achieve these goals by offering students professional tutoring and advising. The services ACE provides are free to all Fisher students. It is located in 131 Beacon Street.
Professional Tutoring: ACE is staffed with 15-20 professional tutors. They assist students with all aspects of the learning process, including organizational and study skills. Fisher tutors are experienced with identifying the root of students' academic difficulties and giving students the tools needed to become independent learners. Students are encouraged to make appointments with tutors, and some take advantage of the service by making a weekly appointment with the same tutor, developing a sound relationship throughout the semester.
Tutoring appointments are available from 10:00 a.m. until 9:00 p.m., Monday through Wednesday; from 10:00 a.m. until 7:00 p.m. on Thursday; and from 10:00 a.m. until 4:00 p.m. on Friday.
