In partnership with Washington State Community Colleges, Washington State University, State of Washington, and the Connecticut Distance Learning Consortium, EvCC currently offers online tutoring to provide assistance to students in math (mathematics, statistics, calculus), writing, anatomy,  physiology, and accounting.

eTutoring Services

  • Online Writing Lab allows you to submit a draft of your paper to a tutor, ask for specific feedback, and receive your work back with a tutor's response within 24-48 hours.
  • Live Tutoring via eChat allows you to meet with a tutor from one of NW eTutoring’s schools in one-on-one tutoring sessions via a fully interactive, virtual online environment.  
  • Offline Questions allows you to leave a specific question for an eTutor even when no live tutors are available for eChat.  You will receive a response within 48 hours (usually sooner).
