In addition to office hours, please feel free to contact me via email if you are "stuck". Also, Grossmont offers some great resources to help you do well:

  • Math Study Center Links to an external site. - tutors can help you with the calculation aspects of homework assignments (bring your textbook and Masteringastronomy.com login information with you).
  • English Reading and English Writing Center Links to an external site. - useful if English is not your native language, especially since Astronomy has so many new words and new definitions for "common English" words.
