Tutoring information
Each week, the Brown Math DUG volunteers at Hope High School (just a few minutes from Brown's Campus on foot), tutoring students in all areas of math from algebra I through calculus. It's a fun and exciting way to give back to the community and to brush up on your math skills! Times vary but are generally in the morning parts of the day when Hope High is in session. Email Scott_Geller@brown.edu with any questions or to sign up.
