View Program Map  

About the Program

The Mathematics Department at Las Positas College offers a wide range of tuition-free, noncredit courses and programs designed to help students be successful in mathematics, from student learning support to being a math tutor. Course offerings include sections from our award-winning Math Jam program, foundational math classes in Pre-Algebra and Algebra, and our new concurrent support courses. Students interested in developing their tutoring skills can take training courses in our Math Jam mode. Most classes are mirrored in the math department and can be taken for noncredit or credit.

About the Certificate

The Math Jam for Tutors Program is designed specifically to provide a supportive, noncredit pathway for current Las Positas College math students who are interested in becoming tutors. This program will recruit and prepare students to become paid math tutors at Las Positas College. It offers the unique experience of receiving hands-on training helping students learn key math concepts while in a collaborative setting, supported by a math instructor and fellow math tutors. This program complements possible concurrent training and/or employment at the Tutorial Center, and while completion of this program is very desirable, it is not a requisite for working at the Tutorial Center.

Career Opportunities

This noncredit program prepares students to become paid tutors in the area of Mathematics.
