Services
Peer subject tutors are formally trained students at La Salle University who assist undergraduate students with coursework in classes they succeed in. Tutors work with students on an individual or group basis, both face-to-face and online. In addition to doing well in the courses they tutor, peer subject tutors enjoy helping other students discover new ways of understanding course material.
Tutoring is arranged by appointment on Starfish (found in the portal).
