The Office of Advising and Career Development offers free, one-on-one tutoring for all undergraduate students at Chaminade University. Tutoring services are designed to guide students to the point at which they become independent learners, no longer needing a tutor. Subjects tutored include, but are not limited to: biology, chemistry, math, nursing, English, etc. The tutoring corps consists of trained Peer and Professional Tutors.
