History of the TECHniques Center

The TECHniques Center has been a resource to Texas Tech University for 20 years. Begun in 1999 with only 20 students and one full-time director, the TECHniques Center is the only program of its kind in Texas and has expanded to include 175 student participants (each semester), 60 – 75 peer tutors, and eight full-time staff members. We are proud to be a nationally-recognized program for students who learn differently.

Tutoring

Tutors also assist with organization, time management, study skills, and other resources as requested by Academic Counselors.
