How can a college tutor near me at Michigan State University help me study?
College coursework is often more difficult than the work you did while in high school. It can also be hard to find the support you need from your professor because of the size of your class. While you can ask your professor to provide further clarification on a topic they're teaching, you might not always understand the explanation they offer. Your professor might have office hours, but that doesn't mean they'll have the time or opportunity to give you one-on-one instruction to help you better understand a difficult topic.
Fortunately, Michigan State University tutoring allows you to get the personalized instruction that you may need. We can connect you with a Michigan State University tutor who puts your needs first. Since they are working with just you, your academic struggles and goals are their primary focus during your study sessions. A private instructor doesn't have to stick to one method of teaching either but can adapt the way they teach to fit your preferred learning style.
Can a Michigan State University tutor help me get ready for exams?
If you are preparing for your unit test, your midterm, or your final exam, it can be overwhelming to try to study on your own. Enlisting the assistance of a college tutor at Michigan State University can help you build your proficiency in even the most challenging of topics. Your instructor can employ several methods to help you learn better. For example, if you are someone who learns best through audible information and you are struggling with Government, your instructor can lead lectures on the concepts covered or can have animated conversations with you. If you are having a difficult time with Geography and you are a visual learner, then your instructor can help you create a map, flashcards, or other studying aids. No matter what your unique learning style entails, Michigan State University tutoring can play to your strengths.
An MSU tutor won't just help you prepare for your tests and guide you through your homework. Your private instructor can also help you learn how to make your studying more efficient by offering you advice on how you prioritize your homework, how you take notes during lectures, and how you organize your studying material. These tips offered during MSU tutoring can help you throughout your entire academic career.
How can I find a college tutor near me at Michigan State University?
Since you likely have a busy schedule as it is, we understand that it can prove difficult to make time to meet up with a private mentor. The benefits of MSU tutoring can make all the difference in your course, though, and that's why we want to make getting started easy and efficient. We do the work of finding you a tutor who can meet up either online or in-person. Either way, you'll have access to private instruction that is based on you and your needs.
When you choose online Michigan State University tutoring, it can make studying even more simple and convenient. Without worrying about a long commute somewhere, you can simply log onto our Live Learning Platform. This platform is designed to give you a place to connect with your instructor and utilize the many features it has. All you need to get started is a compatible device, such as a smartphone, tablet, or laptop, and a reliable internet connection. Then it's as simple as picking out a place you'd like to study.
The features that the Live Learning Platform has are not to be underestimated. They can make a huge impact on how you learn. For example, the virtual whiteboard gives your instructor the ability to show you visual examples of the concepts you're reviewing together. The live video chat makes it easy to communicate with your instructor, as you can hear, see, and speak with each other. This means if you have a question, you can ask it immediately. The document sharing lets your instructor watch as you solve example problems. With the platform, you can always return to a previous study session as well, because each lesson is recorded and saved.
Ready to begin working with a private instructor? Reach out to Varsity Tutors today and speak with one of our education consultants about how you can get started working with an MSU tutor. We can get you more information, answer your questions, and connect you with a private mentor in as little as 24 hours.

Recent Yonkers Tutoring Session Notes
1. Wrote entire homily for Speech class. He paralleled some gospel story to the story of King Arthur. Only the hard copy is due the next day but the student doesn't have speech class (he has Spanish instead) that day.
2. Brought a green folder with brads and pockets. Supervised while the student made the dividers and then checked his Lit binder for all rough drafts that were supposed to be in there.
3. Study pack, Social Studies (most of it was done - he had left only a page's worth of the more reading-intensive work to do).

Today the student and I started with Chemistry and ended with Algebra 2. We did a 2 page worksheet on writing empirical formulas of compounds given a percent composition of the elements present. We then went on to work on his math assignment for the weekend, looking at the transformation of functions when multiplied by a coefficient or translated up/down or right/left. The student understood all of this very well and did many problems on his own. Overall a great session with much improvement and understanding.

We worked through a new review worksheet that the student was given by her teacher. We didn't have time to finish all of it, but we worked steadily and the student seems to have learned a lot. I think she is getting rotational physics pretty well.
