- HELP!
-
Learning to program requires patience, persistence and can still be challenging. I want to be your first source
for help. Please ask questions before, during and after class as well as visit me during office hours. I am happy
to meet at other times as well. In addition to my help, the CIS Success Center (MAK C-2-105) is a great place to
find help. Free tutoring for CIS 162 is available during specific hours during the week. See
cis.gvsu.edu/success
and the Center door for a current schedule. You can also contact the
GVSU tutoring center.
