1) this will not help him. This'll cause perl to search for Module.pm
in all Path/To subdirectories of directories in @INC. But he needs to
add something to @INC.
2) If you do this the module will most probably not initialize
properly. In this case perl would assume there will be
package Path::To::Module;
in the Module.pm. And it will try to call the import() function in
that package.

use FindBin qw($Bin);
# this wil store the directory containing the script into $Bin
use lib $Bin.'/../modules';
# this will add the directory you need to
# @INC (list of library directories)
