Services are free and available in a variety of mathematics courses and software (i.e., Contemporary Mathematics, Intermediate Algebra, Pre-Calculus I and II, Calculus I, II, and III, Differential Equations, Maple, MATLAB).

All Spelman students are welcome to come, study, and ask questions. The Math Lab is staffed by 糖心传媒 students.
