The Study Zone

Come In. Get it done.

Summer Schedule: July - August 2008

Need homework help?

Get it at the library!

The Study Zone is a great place for students to study, do homework and get help with their questions. Volunteer tutors provide free homework help during Study Zone hours. Students can find help in all subject areas, including Math, Science and WASL and SAT test preparation. Stop by a KCLS community library and find your Study Zone.

Study Zone Tutors can help students:
• Prepare for the SAT or WASL test
• Improve in Math, Science and other academic topics
• Write a report or paper
• Complete an assignment
• Learn new study skills

The Study Zone is a free service of the King County Library System. Students, grades K-12, can “drop in” for homework help any time during Study Zone hours. There is no need to sign up in advance. See the schedule for Study Zone hours at a KCLS library near you.

Study Zone tutors are volunteers from our communities who must pass a
Washington State patrol background check and complete a program orientation before they begin tutoring. Study Zone tutors can provide help in all subject areas up to the 6th grade level and also specialize in one or two subjects each up to the college-prep level. Each tutor works with 1-5 students in a group setting.

The Study Zone is a free service of the King County Library System. Students, grades K-12, can “drop in” for homework help any time during Study Zone hours, so there is no need to sign up in advance. Volunteer tutors are available at participating KCLS community libraries, during Study Zone hours, to help students with their homework.

The Study Zone needs dedicated volunteers.
