Need homework help?
Get FREE tutoring 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 MSP/HSPE and SAT test preparation. Stop by a KCLS community library and find your Study Zone.

What is Study Zone?
Volunteer tutors are available at participating KCLS community libraries to provide free homework help to students at the library. The Study Zone is a great place for students to study, do homework and get help with their questions. The program is open to all students grades K-12. Study Zone sessions are designed for a group setting; each tutor works with 1-5 students in a group setting. Study Zone tutors are not able to provide intensive, private one-to-one tutoring.

How do students join Study Zone?
There is no need to sign up in advance, just drop in any time during Study Zone hour. Students are not required to register or provide personal information to participate in Study Zone.  See the schedule below for Study Zone hours at a KCLS library near you.

 How much does it cost?
The Study Zone program is a free service of the King County Library System.  There are no registration fees and there is no cost for students to participate.

Who are your tutors?
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 8th grade level and also specialize in one or two subjects each up to the college-prep level.

Interested in volunteering to be a tutor?  
The Study Zone needs dedicated volunteers to help students with their homework.  The minimum commitment is 2 hours, one day per week.  Academic community service credit is available for high school juniors and seniors and college students. Training and support are provided.

Funding and support for the Study Zone is provided by the King County Library System Foundation.
