Many people just throw a can of freon in having no clue as to what they are doing. Your A/C system could be properly charged, many other factors can have an effect on how well it works. Such as...
-Cabin air filter dirty
-Cooling fans not kicking on, or only one of them turning on.
-A/C condenser full of dirt not allowing good airflow through.
I'm sure there are other things to list, but A/C systems are pretty complex to diagnose without the proper tools. I suggest taking it to a shop to have it checked.

Well, odds are you are low on freon, which means a leak, which means it has to be found and repaired....
So if a garage, just tops it off, without fixing the leak, it'* only a temporary solution....
