Tutoring

The Office of Academic Success strives to ensure all students at ZSOM are supported. A wide range of tutoring options are available to help students develop the skills required to become successful, self-directed, and lifelong learners.

Faculty as Tutors

First 100 Weeks

Students are encouraged to utilize full-time teaching faculty members in the Department of Science Education as faculty tutors.

Please contact Malika Martin (Malika.Martin@hofstra.edu) to schedule an appointment with a faculty member.

    Second 100 Weeks

    Students in the Second 100 Weeks are encouraged to reach out to Dr. Melissa Pawelczak to address questions or concerns.

      You are also encouraged to reach out to supervising faculty members, residents, and ACE directors with any questions and for feedback.
