Sarah Dimakis, daughter of Rachel and Al Dimakis of Federal Way, a senior at Hamilton College in Clinton, New York, is serving as the head peer tutor for research in the Quantitative & Symbolic Reasoning Center at Hamilton this year.

The mission of the QSR Center is to support students in the development of their academic skills, and to foster collaborative learning and intellectual growth.

Tutors are students who have been recommended by the departments for which they tutor.

They have taken the courses they tutor and have been trained in tutoring techniques and interpersonal relations.

The QSR Center offers drop-in peer tutoring in introductory level courses containing a mathematics/quantitative component.

Dimakis, a mathematics and psychology major, is a graduate of Charles Wright Academy.
