The United States Air Force Academy (USAFA) has opened an Evening Tutoring Center to provide after-hours tutoring every evening before class days. The center focuses on first and second year courses in challenging quantitative disciplines: mathematics, physics, chemistry, and engineering mechanics. Staffed exclusively by faculty-level instructors, the center offers extra instruction to all first and second year cadets. Early demand has been remarkable, and early indications are that cadets who visit the center for extra instruction in mathematics perform better than peers with comparable backgrounds.
