Why Peer Tutoring is Helpful
- Peer tutors have often had the same or similar struggles as their tutee.
- Peer tutors âspeak the same languageâ and can connect with the student.
- Peer tutors provide academic support.
- Peer tutors serve as role models for their student tutees.
- Peer tutors often have great energy and enthusiasm for what they do because itâs a new function for them.
- Because your student is working with another student, he/she may be less anxious, may be more comfortable and less afraid to ask a âstupidâ question.
