The Reading and Writing Center is pleased to welcome five new tutors for the Fall 2022 semester. Some of our new tutors are current Reedley college students, and others have already graduated and moved on to four-year colleges.
You may see some of them around campus, in classes, and the RWC. Our tutors are embedded in English classes, including our new hires, so they are fully emersed in the course content.
Altogether, our new hires are fun, friendly, and passionate people we are happy to get the chance to work with. We are excited to have them on our team and hope this will help you get to know them better!
