This is a joint application for Peer Tutors & Peer Assisted Learning (PAL) Leaders, who will be serving during the Spring 2024 semester.

PAL Leaders & Peer Tutors are academic leaders on campus who are expected to support the objectives of Course Support, which are to

  • Foster an inclusive and collaborative environment for students to learn by implementing strength-focused approaches.
  • Advance educational equity on campus by providing a proper balance of challenge and support that leads to more independent and self-directed learning.

Peer Tutors may work with a variety of courses, and conduct individual and/or small group tutoring sessions with undergraduate students enrolled in those particular courses. Peer Tutors must offer at least 6 hours of appointment availability, and may be given the option to provide drop-in tutoring hours.
