What is Peer Tutoring?

Peer tutoring creates a comfortable, supportive atmosphere for students to practice their skills and work towards mastery of the content material. Peer tutors possess experience and knowledge in a subject area, exceptional study skills, and are able to use that experience and knowledge to guide others.
