Peer Tutors provide individual and small group tutorial assistance for existing course curriculum. Additionally, Peer Tutors work with students to develop their self-esteem, effective learning strategies, critical thinking, and study skills. Peer Tutors are responsible for using “best practices” learned during the provided tutor orientation. Peer Tutors will work with students in the First-Generation Student Center (FGSC) to identify their areas of strength and to be accountable and responsible for their educational choices and actions.
