Peer Tutoring in Mathematics

Catalog description

By invitation of a professor, a student may serve as a peer tutor for a course. Each peer tutor works with the professor to define the specific role in the class, which may include helping conduct classes, leading study or discussion sessions, and helping students master the course material. The peer tutor does not grade or keep other records for the class. The peer tutor will submit a paper of reflection on the work and the student’s learning. This reflection paper will be expected to appear in the student’s portfolio required in MTH 4710 (Senior Seminar). This course will be pass-fall and will fulfill the Internship, Clinicals, and Practica category of Experiential Learning of the BELL Core.
