Found in: Talent CA C2 - 1 week ago
ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE
This role reports to Learning Strategist or Learning Centre Coordinator
SUMMARY
Tutors receive three levels of training. Principle duties include tutoring KPU students to help them become more effective learners. Tutors achieve this by asking questions about the student's understanding of the subject area, making suggestions about how to study or a method of approaching a problem, modelling appropriate learning strategies, and by referring the student to learning resources or other services within or outside the university. Peer Tutors are not expected to teach coursework. They are not expected to be substitutes for teachers and they are definitely not allowed to do the student's work or assignments. Peer tutors are current KPU students helping other students to learn.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
- To tutor KPU students in specific subject areas after completing appropriate training
- To help KPU students to understand main course concepts, how to follow assignment structures, and how to improve their performance in their coursework
- To provide feedback on students' assignments and to provide students with ways to improve their work
