Peer Tutoring
Peer Tutoring offers a unique form of academic support to students. A fellow PBA student, who has been carefully recommended by the faculty, will work closely with you. These sessions happen in a small group format, are accessible to PBA students, don’t require scheduled appointments and will provide you with the academic assistance you need in a comfortable and supportive atmosphere. Some of the subject areas include:
- Math
- Science
- Hebrew
- Greek
- Nursing
- Spanish
Academic enrichment workshops
Academic enrichment workshops will help you identify how you learn best, adopt critical thinking skills and explore a variety of other issues related to enhancing your academic experience. These 50-minute, faculty-led sessions happen during the third and 11th weeks of the fall semester. Each workshop focuses on a different topic—which could be anything from learning strategies to college etiquette to leading by example—and provide excellent learning outlets for all students.
