Students may also arrange for a private tutor with the consent of their advisor. Upon referral, Yadira will make attempts to obtain a tutor for the desired subject. Please note that this may take up to several weeks, depending on the subject, the time of the request and the availability of the tutor(s). As a rule, the smaller the class, the harder it is to find a tutor, since fewer people will have taken it. If one is found, two hours of tutorial support are allotted for each student per week.
