TURNER COLLEGE SPOTLIGHT

Business Tutoring Lab

Economics can be much more challenging than a drawing a graph with a supply and demand curve.  What about the time value of money? Having access to a tutor can help students connect class material to the real world.  Fortunately for students in the Turner College, some extra help, provided by great tutors, is available, Monday through Friday, inside the Turner College’s tutoring lab.  The lab, which is located in Room 347 in the Synovus Center on CSU’s main campus, is staffed by high-achieving graduate and undergraduate students in the Turner College.  The lab’s staff provides assistance in several undergraduate business courses, including accounting principles (ACCT 2101 and 2102), economics principles (ECON 2105 and 2106), managerial finance (FINC 3105), business analytics (BUSA 3115) and corporate financial analysis (FINC 3115).  The tutoring services provided by the lab are free to business majors at CSU; students simply sign an attendance sheet upon arrival and at departure.  Although the services are free of charge, the lab has one request of students – be sure to bring your textbo
oks and notes with you!
