What does "peer tutoring" mean?

Peer tutoring means getting help from other students, like you. Peer tutoring takes many forms: an older student tutoring a younger student in a subject they took years ago, a student of a higher ability tutoring another student who may be struggling, or students in the same class coming together to review material, with one student leading.

Peer tutoring can be one-to-one or take place in small groups! Both formats complement a traditional school classroom and can offer a safe, supportive environment to get the help you need.

While peer tutoring can be one-on-one (ex: Live Help rooms), tutors cannot host a private session exclusively for one learner and intentionally exclude other learners (unless those sessions are a part of a specific Schoolhouse program/initiative). Learn more here.
