Wednesday Study Sessions

As the school year nears completion, finals and classes are getting tough and sometimes, additional help is needed. If you need extra help with any classes, feel free to take advantage of the Wednesday Study Sessions. With at least 24 hours notice, we can get you a tutor with almost any subject. Wednesday Study Sessions are held at Avila University.
For additional information or to schedule extra tutoring, please contact the office at 816.501.2438.
