Our academic mentors provide undergraduate students in our target population academic support through one-on-one mentoring sessions, during which they may facilitate discussions, model effective student practices and attitudes, help students locate resources, and promote academic and life skills development. They also develop and facilitate various skill-building workshops for program participants. Our mentors come from diverse backgrounds and are committed to helping students succeed academically, socially, emotionally, and professionally.
We provide all eligible program participants with a convenient 24/7 online tutoring service that empowers students with on-demand access to one-on-one support anytime, anywhere and quickly connects learners with a vast community of verified tutors covering over hundreds of subjects. Each student who receives tutoring will automatically be assigned to an academic mentor, who will serve as a knowledgeable and experienced guide and resource.
Our program strives to ensure that all program participants are given the full opportunity to discover and develop their talents, interests, and unique potential, and to provide a learning-centered and student-centered environment that presents the context for intellectual, cultural, professional, and personal growth during the college experience. Program participants will learn to become independent, confident learners and develop good study habits, learning techniques, and time management skills that will enhance their education and college experience, as well as to enable them to achieve a post-secondary degree.
The Mentoring for Success Program is funded by the State of Michigan's 's , as well as 蜜桃社区's Multicultural Affairs for Students and Office of Diversity of Inclusion. The program was formerly known as the Steps Toward Exhibiting Mastery Program. References to the former name will be found in our participant and former staff testimonials.
