To increase the number of engineers in America and throughout the world, a growing number of UCLA Engineering students are volunteering their time and knowledge by offering online math and science tutoring assistance to Los Angeles community schools. From a university secured server, LA students have free access to an online platform where they can receive tutoring help from a Bruin engineering student tutor. Homework help is at their fingertips during late afternoon and early evening hours (tutor schedules are posted online). The only requirements are a computer, with Internet access, and a challenging math and/or science question.
