Tutoring Services
Molloy's Tutoring Services prepares you for academic success. It provides you with support in two specific ways: improvement and supplemental. Content help is available when you are below a “C” average in your major course of study and need to improve your grade. Supplemental help is provided when you are passing a course but require reinforcement or clarification in particular aspects of the course work.
Our tutors will assist you – free of charge – in achieving your academic potential in various subjects including mathematics, science, modern languages, and undergraduate nursing.
We will match you with a tutor trained to help you succeed. Our tutors are:
- Professionals: Active or semi-retired teachers or professional certified in the field in which they tutor
- Graduates: Students who have obtained their graduate/undergraduate degree
- Peers: Undergraduates knowledgeable in the subject area
