In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: Hi Sara, At FAU we had considered several outside vendors over the years. We had our faculty (mainly from math, science, and writing) do mock sessions (we got logins and they got to go into actually online tutoring sessions) and they were disappointed with the quality of the tutoring received. Without faculty buy-in, we opted to keep everything in-house. Best wishes, -Jennifer Jennifer Bebergal, Ed.D.
