Description:...

Students can make huge gains in academic grades and confidence with the help of peer tutoring. This book provides practical, research-based strategies for anyone wanting to run a peer tutoring programme or to improve their own tutoring practice.

The book focuses on two key components of tutoring: the tutoring relationship and tutoring tools. The author has developed a tutoring toolbox, based on the latest research, that can be easily applied in a tutoring session. Case studies explore peer tutoring programmes run by schools, an iwi organisation and a community group.
