Course-Based Peer Tutors in Science and Quantitative Reasoning

Through a pilot program, subject to ongoing evaluation, an instructor may request authorization to appoint one or more Course-Based Peer Tutors in a science or quantitative reasoning course. These tutors are available in addition to the other resources (such as faculty and Teaching Fellows) associated with the course. The Course-Based Peer Tutors are undergraduates who, in most cases, will have previously taken the course.

Course-Based Peer Tutors attend lectures and are available to students in the course for one-on-one and small group tutoring. They are overseen by the course instructor.  

Requests for authorization to appoint a Course-Based Peer Tutor should be addressed to the Science or Quantitative Reasoning Council, c/o Dean William Segraves, SSS 103, 432-1037.
