Expanded online services help you succeed — wherever you are

Study strategies are a must whether you’re ready to earn an associate degree, transfer your credits or become job-ready with a certificate. We’ve worked ahead to put options in place for every kind of learner. 

  • Looking for a quiet space to review notes and think through lectures? 
  • Need a free tutoring session to jump-start a subject? 
  • How about a lesson in lab tools to help you get ahead and stay ahead? 
  • Is low blood sugar causing brain drain? We’ve got that covered, too.

Academic Resource Center

JCCC’s new state-of-the-art Academic Resource Center (Billington Library, 1st floor) is your one-stop shop for free tutoring and class assistance. It has a roomy study area, library assistants who can direct you, and the trendy Stacks Café, serving coffee and snacks.

Math Resource Center

Tutors at the Math Resource Center are ready to tackle problems and tough concepts with you. Online tutoring is open for drop-ins during regular service hours via Zoom. Email mrc@jccc.edu to schedule a face-to-face appointment.

The Academic Achievement Center (AAC) is a welcoming place to advance your readiness to learn. You can sign up for weekly online tutoring in just about any subject — including reading, basic math, science and writing, with study skills support. Try it! You’ll be amazed at your progress. Getting started is simple – fill out a Tutor Request Form.

Sign up for a Smart Start academic orientation workshop and get tips from a Learning Specialist about time management, test preparation and solving Canvas issues. Keep your semester on track!

Experienced and friendly Reading Specialists help you succeed and build confidence — no appointment necessary. Email your questions to readingspecialist@jccc.edu.

College Success

Courses in College Success will help you build confidence, improve your grades and learn how to study. Credits you earn taking College Success classes are accepted as electives in most programs of study. Even better, you can apply the skills you master to your current classes and beyond.

Science Resource Center

If science concepts are stumping you or you need to work with anatomy models, Science Resource Center tutors can help seven days a week online and weekdays in person on campus. Online tutoring is available via Zoom for a quick question, or schedule a tutoring session by appointment. For appointments and other questions, email src@jccc.edu.

Writing Center

Staring at a blank page? Unsure how to create a works cited page? The Writing Center can help you polish your writing skills in all subjects. Make an online or in-person appointment with a tutor or Writing Specialist for feedback and help with any assignment.

Language Resource Center

Working on a second (or third) language is tough! View the schedule to see when our American Sign Language, Chinese, French, German, Japanese and Spanish tutors are available to help you.

Billington Library

Librarians and library staff are at your service 80 hours a week for questions via call, text, tweet, email or Facetime. Visit the Ask a Librarian online chat for more details. They can tell you how to research subjects whether on campus or online. On campus, they can also help you access a Mac or PC and printer, check out textbooks or book a study room. 

Connect to almost 600 million books, ebooks, magazines, newspaper and journal articles, streaming videos and DVDs when using the Summon search box on the library's home page. On the website you can also request books, view full-text articles and ebooks, or schedule an individual appointment to meet with a librarian online or in person.
