Free Tutoring with Academic Center for Excellence (ACE)

To aid in the ever-changing world of education, the Academic Center for Excellence (ACE) developed several online and after hours of operation services for students utilizing ACE Tutoring, a Canvas course that each Chipola College student has the ability to access.

ACE After Hours allows students the opportunity to receive free online tutoring in select courses during the evenings. Live, interactive tutoring is available for several math courses through Canvas. Students can also submit questions at any time through the ACE Canvas course and will receive a short video or written response in return.

ACE offers expanded course offerings for online tutoring using multiple technologies such as Canvas Studio, Zoom, Microsoft Teams, and Screencast-O-Matic. ACE also facilitates the organization of online learning communities where students can work with classmates on assignments and test preparation. In alignment with courses transitioning from in-person to remote instruction or online, Chipola College remains committed to providing full academic support for all students.
