Use HelpNow! for Homework Help

School is back in session! The Library offers a resource called HelpNow -- a live tutoring service designed for a range of academic needs. Tutors are available Monday - Sunday, 2:00 PM -- 11:00 PM CST. HelpNow is a comprehensive suite of tutoring services designed for a range of academic needs; whether it’s tackling a tough homework problem, learning an academic skill, or writing a term paper.

These are the HelpNow services:

  • Homework Help: Students submit a question in our online classroom and receive live, one-on-one assistance from a Brainfuse tutor.
  • Skills-Building: Our skills building service helps students master a concept or skill through state-aligned online lessons, presented by Brainfuse tutors in one-to-one sessions. HelpNow Skills Building has been designed for a variety of age groups and academic needs.
  • 24-Hour Writing Lab: Our writing instructors help students become better writers by providing constructive feedback and other assistance within 24 hours of receiving a student’s submission.
  • Test Center: Visit our online assessment library to take practice standardized tests (SAT, ACT, GED and more) and practice subject specific tests, like math and science. Get results instantly and, if you choose, share them with one of our tutors for a targeted skills building session.
  • 24/7 Help Center: Students submit questions via our online form and a tutor will respond to the student’s question within 24 hours.
  • Foreign Language Center: Students receive live online help with their foreign language homework from our fluent foreign language tutors.
  • Adult Education Center: Adults can receive live online help from our trained adult education specialists in areas such as US Citizenship testing, resume and cover letter writing assistance and core subject education.
  • Full Spanish Speaking Service: Spanish-speaking tutors are offered co-extensively (same subjects and hours of availability) with our English-speaking tutors.
Plainfield Public Library cardholders can access HelpNow from home. Cardholders from other libraries are welcome to visit us in person to use this resource on one of our public computers.
