Learning Assistants:

       Lisandra Hernandez is the designated LA for this course.  She can be reached via e-mail at

lhern056@fiu.edu   and will respond to e-mails during her designated working hours provided 

there are no students who needs her help at that time.  Her designated hours are tentatively set as

below but these may be adjusted later on.   Times & days:  To be announced (6 hours / week).

Place:  in DM409A or just outside, near the tables & white board or on the patio (DM 4th floor).

 

Tutoring services:     

         You can get help in Calculus from tutors at the Math Department Tutoring Laboratory, and

from other University sources such as the Learning Center for Mathematics & Statistics, GL 120 

(305-348-2180, 305-919-5927) & Minority Student Services (305-348-2436).

 

The Math-Stats department, with support from the College of Arts and Science, is opening a

study hall.  As well as other students, there will be Learning Assistants available to extra provide help.

The learning assistants will be knowledgeable in the following subjects: Intermediate Algebra,

College Algebra, Trigonometry, Calculus 1,2,3& Diff. Eq.  The location is VH 180.
