MSSN Tutorial Class Transforms New Students' Academic Journey at UDUS

Since February 2024, Fatimoh Aliyu embarked on her academic journey at Usmanu Danfodiyo University, Sokoto (UDUS), facing numerous challenges typical of a freshman in the Department of Pure Chemistry, Faculty of Chemical and Life Sciences. Like many new students, she struggled with the rigorous demands of her courses, particularly in calculations.

However, a turning point came when Fatimoh discovered a group message on WhatsApp inviting all 100-level students to attend tutorial classes organized by the Muslim Students’ Society of Nigeria (MSSN) at UDUS.

Expressing her gratitude, Fatimoh highlighted the tutorial's impact on her academic path. "It's been a great assistance in understanding what I find challenging in class," she remarked, emphasizing how the sessions helped her overcome academic hurdles.
