The
Learning Resource Center staff provides
tutoring services to ALL enrolled students
at ALL academic levels at Lincoln University.
The Learning Resource Center consists of
the Reading, Writing and Math/Science Laboratories.
The lab staff is committed to providing
all students with tutoring services to improve
their college performance. Tutoring may
also serve as a refresher for students entering
the educational system after a long absence.
Labs are available for individual help with
study skills, writing papers, reading, math,
sciences, and special projects. The aim
of the laboratories is to provide students
with learning experiences that will enhance
their chances to excel academically and
earn a GPA of 3.0 or higher, which make
academic scholarships a reality. Students
should continue to use the Reading, Writing
and Math/Science Labs to prepare for advanced
skills needed in graduate/professional schools
and management positions.
Reading Laboratory
The professional tutors in the Reading Lab
provide individual assistance to each student.
Required labs are assigned to students by
the Education Department for the following
courses: Reading & Study Skills (Edu

Attention is given to the mastery of the
content in these areas and development of
efficient and productive study habits. Activities
include speed reading, creative works reading,
and vocabulary practice.

9:00 am—5:00 pm.
Writing
