About Tutoring at Pinewood Branch Library

The Pinewood Branch Library, also known as “Pinewoods,” opened in Spring, 2005, and is part of the Athens Regional Library system. The library offers programs ranging from the Mexican Consulate's “Plaza Comunitaria” adult education program, to guitar lessons, to computer literacy, and more!

UGA began supporting a tutoring program at Pinewood library in Fall 2005. Tutoring includes homework help, literacy activities, and other academic support, for students in upper elementary and middle school. Tutees also can use the Library’s computers and educational programs to support their learning after their homework is complete.
