The Learning Commons is a collaborative service consisting of Language Tables, Subject Tutoring, Supplemental Instruction, the
Writing Center and Library support.
- Language Tables
Language Tables facilitate games and activities to improve students' pronunciation, vocabulary and grammar in Chinese, Japanese,
French, German, and Spanish. Schedules vary each semester to ensure students enrolled in language classes can attend, but everyone
is welcome to join the fun! Visit the Learning Commons website for a semester schedule.
- Subject Tutoring
Subject Tutors provide walk-in assistance for general studies classes with a focus on math, science, language and business.
To get the most out of subject tutoring, students should start accessing help early. Access the tutoring schedule online or in the
Learning Commons.
- Supplemental Instruction (SI)
SI leaders work directly with instructors to offer review sessions in selected general studies classes. Contact the Learning
Commons at (308) 865-8905 for a list of current SI courses.
- Writing Center
Writing Center tutors assist UNK students, staff and faculty at any stage of the writing process. Make an appointment by calling
(308) 865-8905, in person at the Welcome Desk or online by visiting http://tutortrac.unk.edu. Walk-ins
are accommodated as the appointment schedule allows. Library research support is available through the Learning Commons most evenings.
