Organizing committee:Timothy Blanton and Cody Strouse

The Galois Group tutoring fundraiser is a quarterly event offering tutoring help in calculus courses. Much in the spirit of Calculus Room, we provide practice final exam questions and answer questions that you may have as you prepare for your final exams. You may come and try these practice questions, clarify doubts, ask for explanations and study together with your peers. Entry ticket fee is $10 per day.

We support Pre-Calc and Calculus tutoring, specifically in the following courses:

MAT 12
MAT 16B, MAT 16C
MAT 17A, MAT 17B, MAT 17C
MAT 19A
MAT 21A, MAT 21B, MAT 21C

Tutoring for MAT 19B, MAT 19C, MAT 21D, MAT 22A, 22B, 108, 115A, 127ABC, 128A, 135A, 145, 147, 150A, 167, 185A will be offered separately.

Private tutoring, especially just before the final exams can be rather costly. We seek to provide reliable tutoring services at a more affordable rate, while providing sufficient space and arranging the logistics and human resources to do so, at your convenience. Some of these services does incur costs which we hope to cover. Furthermore, the TAs who sign up to help out are doing so outside of their usual working hours for each day of the tutoring event, so donating will help us fund our graduate group activities (see below) and maintain the continuity of future tutoring events.

The donations obtained from the fundraiser is used to provide social/travel funds, fund workshops, SIAM activities, dissertation writing group, Faculty Research Seminar series, purchase food for prelim exams/postlim parties, etc. Furthermore, your involvement will help reassure students as they prepare for their finals by strengthening their grasp of concepts. Snacks, coffee, tea, and lunch will be provided throughout each day of tutoring. If you are available and willing to help us out, stay tuned for our email updates and sign in on the Google Sheets provided.
