The Rinella Learning Center provides a wealth of leadership and employment opportunities to students. Through these experiences, students gain skills that will make them more attractive to potential employers and improve their chances of attending graduate and professional schools. We frequently hire graduate students to serve in our office as Graduate Assistants, and hire undergraduate students as Tutors, Supplemental Instruction 兔子先生, and Learning Ambassadors; we also offer opportunities for students to become Undergraduate Associates and learn more about academic careers.
We accept inquiries from candidates interested in becoming a tutor on a continuous basis. As we continue to review our needs each semester, qualified applicants will be contacted via email to schedule an interview.
If you are interested in being a tutor, please contact tutoring@miamioh.edu.
