Peer Tutoring
We offer a free peer tutoring service for students who want some extra help with their course.
Peer tutors are usually senior students from Otago Polytechnic. As well as content help, assistance with study skills, time management and organisation is available. Students may apply to the Learning Centre for a peer tutor and we will try to match you with someone suitable.
Only students who are attending class regularly can be offered a peer tutor.
"I wouldn’t have survived the year without my Peer Tutor.”
"My Peer Tutor was able to explain things at a slower pace than in class so I could understand it better.”
"They pointed out to me where I was going wrong and how to do it.”
Yes, I want a Peer Tutor
Peer Tutor Training
The Learning Centre also provides online peer tutor support at "One to one-to-one". (Or you may enrol in a course to train as a peer tutor; to do this, please let us know.) If you are interested in becoming a paid peer tutor, then you should contact William Lucas.
Enrolments are taken from February to September.
