Find a Peer Tutor
Find a Peer Tutor
The MBA Center collects a database of peer tutors to share as a resource for other students. The Grad Center does not match students with peer tutors or have guidelines about frequency of service or compensation. Frequency of services and compensation shall be negotiated between peer tutor and tutee.
It is important that you find a peer tutor that is a good match. All peer tutors have received an A- or better in each course. When you email a peer tutor from the list below, we suggest you consider asking them the following questions:
- Why did you decide to become a peer tutor?
- What is your style when tutoring?
- How do you approach a situation where this style is not successful?
