The Georgia Brewer Campion Center for Academic Success

Peer Tutors are available to supplement in-class instruction for most core classes. Peer Tutors meet with students by appointment only. Tutoring appointments can be made by scheduling through the “Schedule a Tutor“ link in the left navigation bar in any Canvas class.

Barton partners with Pearson to offer tutoring online in some subjects. Every Barton student has his/her own Smarthinking account that can be accessed through the left navigation bar in any Canvas class by clicking on Smarthinking Online Tool. Questions about Smarthinking may be directed to Blythe Taylor in the Campion Center.

Supplemental Instruction (SI) is a series of weekly review sessions for students taking historically difficult courses. SI is provided for all students who want to improve their understanding and performance in the course. It gives students a chance to compare notes, discuss important concepts, develop strategies for studying, and test each other. Two weekly study sessions are facilitated by SI Leaders, upperclass students who have successfully completed these courses and have been recommended by the faculty for the position. SI Leaders participate in the course for a second time to develop relationships with students and refresh themselves on the material. SI offerings vary each semester. Students should check with the Campion Center or the professor of the course to see if SI is being offered.
