The Dr. Mack Gipson, Jr., Tutorial and Enrichment Center (TEC) provides one-on-one or small-group tutoring in virtually all subjects to Paine College students, faculty, staff, and administrators, free of charge. In addition to reviewing course work and preparing for tests and quizzes, the TEC can help students improve their study skills; plan, write, proofread, and format research papers; prepare for oral presentations; and develop computer documents and slide shows. The TEC also offers help with personal projects such as writing letters, preparing for standardized tests, and improving computer skills. In short, we try to provide whatever help or support a student might need in order to achieve success.

Located in the Gipson Building, just across the driveway from Haygood-Holsey.
