The Peer Tutoring Program allows students who are excelling academically to help other students by leading drop-in tutorial sessions for a variety of subject areas and programs. Tutors work with tutees to review course material and work through questions together; however, tutors do not reteach an entire class or help tutees complete entire assignments.
How Does the Program Work?
- Two hour group, drop-in tutorial sessions run weekly
- Students can attend for the whole two hours weekly or drop-in as needed with questions
