Use This Link for Direct Access to Brainfuse

 

In addition to the link on this page, there are access points for Brainfuse in myFSCJ and Canvas course shells.

Note:  You may also access online science tutoring by using the Live Help feature in Brainfuse that is staffed by Brainfuse's professional tutors.  Please note that you are allotted 90 minutes per month to use the services provided by Brainfuse's tutors.  Any sessions that you have in Live Help will be deducted from your monthly allotment of time. To maximize your access to tutoring support, we suggest that you use Tutor Match with FSCJ's tutors as your primary source of tutoring support and then supplement with help provided by Brainfuse's tutors during times when our tutors are not available for appointments.

 

What to Expect During a Science Tutoring Session

Science tutoring appointments are scheduled in 30-minute increments. You may stretch your session time to a full hour by scheduling two back-to-back tutoring appointments in one calendar day. We cap tutoring sessions at one hour of tutoring per calendar day to ensure that our staff are available to assist as many students as possible.

  • Please prepare for your session by identifying specific questions or examples of problems that you would like to work through. Bring your class notes, textbook, or any handouts that you have so that they may be referenced during your session. 
  • If you are seeking science tutoring because you would like to prepare for a standardized test or licensure exam, please consult practice test materials so that you will have specific examples of the kinds of problems with which you need help. Study materials for a number of these exams are available through our library: https://guides.fscj.edu/testprep
  • For online tutoring sessions, you may the Snap and Send feature in Brainfuse's mobile app to facilitate content sharing during the session.
  • Students who receive notetaking or sign language interpretation as a part of their accommodations for disabilities may bring these support staff members with them to their tutoring sessions. For online tutoring sessions, just reach out to the tutor with whom the session has been scheduled to alert them that you will be inviting another attendee so that they can provide you with a special access link for the session.
