Beyond subject expertise, they're familiar with how top universities approach problem-solving and critical thinking—skills that transfer across disciplines.
Michigan alumni tutors can share insights about college-level expectations, study strategies that work at elite universities, and how to develop the academic habits that lead to success. They understand the transition from high school to rigorous university coursework and can help you build those skills now. This perspective is especially valuable if you're aiming for selective colleges or specific competitive programs.
Given Michigan's strength across engineering, business, sciences, and liberal arts, alumni tutors excel in subjects like mathematics, physics, chemistry, biology, economics, and computer science. Many also provide support in humanities and standardized test prep. When you connect with a tutor, you can discuss your specific subject and find someone whose background aligns with your needs.
