WELCOME

Welcome to the Math Center! If you want help with your math classes this is the place to come!

The Math Center is run informally and is designed for easy drop-in usage. It works best to use the Center as a study room. It’s a good place to meet up with your study partners and work on homework. If you need help, ask one of the Teaching Assistants or the Math Center Assistant. It’s as easy as that!  We are located in KAP 263.

FINDING A TEACHING ASSISTANT

The Teaching Assistants are here to help you with your math assignments. Click on consulting hours to find out who is available when. Notice that the Teaching Assistants are listed according to which mathematics class they are assisting, and classes that cover similar material are grouped together. As a first choice, try to get help from a Teaching Assistant who is assisting a class that is grouped with your class. But failing that, another TA may be able to help you.  The Math Center Assistant (who sits behind the front desk and hosts the zoom session) can help you find a Teaching Assistant.

COMING VIRTUALLY

For your convenience the Math Center will be operating in hybrid mode.  This means that, if you wish, you may join the virtual Math Center zoom room at the link below (instead of coming in person to the physical location).  Please note, hybrid access is not perfect and is not guaranteed; it is subject to the availability of Teaching Assistants who have the technology to support tutoring over zoom.

Only those with a USC NetID will be granted access to the zoom room. When you enter, the Math Center Assistant on duty will assign you to a breakout room with a Teaching Assistant, or you may hang out in the main room, or you may ask to be put in a breakout room with students of the same class.  Hybrid access will not be available this semester Wednesday 3 – 3:30pm.

OPENING TIMES

The Math Center is open during the Fall and Spring semesters.  It opens the second week of classes each semester though there is no schedule that week indicating when the Teaching Assistants are there.  The schedules showing when the Teaching Assistants are in the Math Center starts the third week of classes (click on the Consulting Hours tab above to see the schedule).  It is open Monday – Thursday 8am – 7pm and Friday 8am – 5pm.   It is open during study days and finals week but otherwise is closed on non-instructional days and on university holidays.
