Tutoring services are available by appointment or drop-in for both in-person and online tutoring service. Check the tutoring schedule for a time and tutoring method that works best for you.
Drop-ins
Drop-in tutoring is available on a first come, first serve basis. Click on the drop-in link during the given time to join the drop-in zoom meeting.
If a tutor doing drop-in tutoring is helping a student in-person you may have to wait for them to be available for drop-ins via Zoom. The tutor will monitor their waiting room and message you an approximate wait time.
Appointments
Students can schedule and cancel their own tutoring appointments through Navigate. Students need to log into ACES first and then click on the AlamoNAVIGATE link. Watch the videos in the Navigate and Zoom Tutorials section below for demonstrations.
Note: When scheduling your own appointment through AlamoNAVIGATE make sure to use either the "Tutoring - General" or "Tutoring - Writing" service. The "Tutoring" service is being used by other Alamo Colleges campuses so if you select this service you will see tutoring centers from other campuses instead the SAC tutoring centers.

Tutoring will be available both as drop-in or by appointment.
Tutoring services are available by appointment. Drop-in tutoring is ok but is dependent on the tutors not having appointments. Students can schedule their own tutoring appointments by using the AlamoNavigate link inside their ACES account. The tutoring availability schedule is posted on the SAC Tutoring page along with tutorial videos on how to schedule appointments and using Zoom.
If you are having trouble setting up your own appointments, please contact us at 210-486-0170 or send an email to sac-tutoring@alamo.edu. If you send an email, make sure to include all necessary information (Banner ID, day, time, course number, whether in-person or Zoom) so that an appointment can be scheduled.
NOTE: In an effort to provide a safe Zoom environment for tutoring, the tutors will need your name, ACES ID or student Banner ID, and professor's name for verification before allowing you into their Zoom room.
