Lab/Tutorial Center

utorial assistance with French assignments and conversational practice is available on a walk-in basis for current students. The French Tutorial Center is a free service for UT students, especially those enrolled in Lower Division French courses (506; 507; 508K; 312K-L; 310L; 118K-L; 119; 604; 612). The Tutorial Center will be held in TA offices (4.102A or 4.102C) this semester; a name in the table below indicates an available time/tutor.

Strategies:
There are many ways to benefit from the Tutorial Center; here are a few suggestions:

• Have a purpose in mind for each visit.
• To practice pronunciation, read out loud and have the tutor correct your pronunciation;
• To practice listening comprehension, listen to the tutor with your book closed and repeat what the tutor says.
• To practice conversation, have an idea of something you'd like to talk about, and have a couple of sentences or questions prepared to start with.
• To practice grammar and vocabulary, use activities from the text (review or current material). Have the tutor ask you questions aloud, without your seeing them.
• The center is staffed by TAs working in many different courses, so bring your books and course packet with you so the tutor can use your vocabulary and grammar.
  NOTE: Tutors may answer specific questions and explain usage, but no advance editing on compositions and homework.
