Online Tutoring

Online tutoring is a service available to non-Colby students (typically KVCC students or members of the greater Waterville community).   This form of tutoring allows the Farnham Writers' Center to work with writers for whom visiting our Center is a significant inconvenience.  If you ever have comments or questions about the program, please contact Assistant Director Adan Hussain.
