Written by Tim Brunicardi | Jun 28, 2018 7:08:00 PM
One of the biggest challenges college students face today is trying to juggle their school work, family obligations, and work schedules. Many times trying to achieve a sense of balance between all these things can leave students with little or no free time to spare.

But what are they supposed to do if they find themselves struggling with a particular college course? How are they supposed to rearrange their already overbooked schedules to allow them to devote even more time to their studies? And if they do decide they need a tutor, where are they going to find the time to meet with someone face-to-face?

Thanks to online tutoring, students will now be able to get the scholastic guidance and direction they need in a time frame that accommodates their schedules.

Fortunately for students at Hocking College, this institution is partnering with the Ohio eTutoring Collaborative to offer them free online tutoring services.
