Help with Courses Outside of the Classroom
Georgia Northwestern Technical College (GNTC) provides free academic support for all enrolled students through Academic Support Centers. Academic Support Centers (ASC) are on all campuses except the Polk County Campus. Each ASC provides tutoring services for English, math, business, and computer technology. At some locations, additional tutoring is available in other subjects such as accounting, allied health, economics, and physics.
For students taking online classes or who cannot make it to an Academic Support Center, GNTC also provides online tutoring. Online tutoring is available through links provided within the student’s Blackboard class portal. Online students may choose to utilize GNTC tutors by self-enrolling in the Blackboard organization named Tutoring Assistance for GNTC, accessing tutoring assistance at NetTutor, an outside online tutoring service, or visiting one of the ASC locations.
Additional Services
In addition to tutoring, each Academic Support Center offers additional services such as workshops, test readers and proctors, placement test remediation, and preparation for required program tests such as the HESI and PSB exams. Workshop offerings vary each semester and students may check the website for updates. Students needing a test reader or proctor must be approved for this ADA accommodation through Accessibility Services. Accommodations for students such as test readers or proctors must be scheduled in advance. Please email Brittany Riddle for more information about accessibility services and testing accommodations. Information regarding tutor absences and schedule updates are posted on GNTC's Facebook and Instagram pages.
