Peer-to-peer academic support for engineering students

About the Service

The UMES tutoring service provides course-specific, peer-to-peer tutoring support for undergraduate Engineering students. Our tutors are fellow students who have excelled in their courses and are passionate about helping others succeed.

Every peer tutor has been through a rigorous approval process, which includes verification of a final grade of A or higher in the courses they tutor, as well as maintaining a minimum CGPA of 3.0.
