Subject: An Increase of Available Math Tutors

Taking a math course is pretty intense and overwhelming for most students in City College of New York (CCNY). Although taking a math course can be challenging, it is still a requirement for most majors and graduation. Due to this predicament, students rely on tutoring.

Students in CCNY has experienced frustration with the math tutoring services, due to low amounts of tutors. There are hundreds of students who seek tutoring services, with only six to ten tutors available. If any student is fortunate to receive a tutor, the amount of time focused on the student is limited. This circumstance puts students in CCNY at risk of failing their math courses.

Establishing a greater tutoring staff will have favorable outcomes for the following reasons:

·      It allows a greater amount of students receive tutoring.

·      Increase employment opportunities for math tutors.

·      Increase math success rate, which contributes to graduation success rates.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation. If there are any suggestions or questions feel free to contact me at Lrivera002@ccny.cuny.edu. Looking forward in hearing from you.
