Better to prevent than to check!

Here's how it works:

If you’re a student struggling with a particular subject, you can first check the website to see if a suitable tutorial already exists. If not, you can simply contact the Tutorial Office (Building ZVII, Room 401). You can do this either by email (tutorien@hszg.de) or in person during office hours, Tuesdays and Thursdays, 11:30 a.m.–12:30 p.m.

There, the general need will first be assessed, because a tutorial may only be offered if several students are having difficulties with a particular course. Unfortunately, one-on-one tutoring is not possible.

If there is a general need, a suitable tutor will be sought—ideally one from a higher semester in the same degree programme. In addition, further details must be clarified (frequency of the tutorials, dates, focus areas, and so on). After consultation, the tutor is then hired as a student assistant and may begin leading the tutoring session immediately.

There is also the option to submit an application to be a tutor. If you’re a student here, see a need for a tutorial in a specific subject, and are yourself strong in that subject, then just get in touch with us. We’d be happy to find you a job!

Best regards,

Your Tutoring Office
