We recognize that many mature students often opt for flexible online programs, thereby allowing them to work at times most suitable to them, and being able to continue their personal or professional activities due to the flexibility offered by online learning programs. At the same time, students also require easily accessible academic support services which may not always be available via the online or distance program of study. As online education has become more popular and increasingly more difficult, it has become easier to fall behind. The key to success is not to get discouraged.
We offer many resources; both online and one-on-one that will help you become an active learner and assist you in reaching your professional and academic goals.
Online Tutoring
Online tutoring is available to all registered students. KnowledgeWalk Institute tutors are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and can help students succeed in the areas of academic writing, Information and Communication Technology, Finance, Economics, Management, Business, Science, Statistics and Psychology. Once you enroll and access the tutoring site you will be able to browse related material and resources; take practice quizzes; and post questions related to course material. A tutor will respond to questions in a timely manner.
