Peer Tutors
Lulla, Neil
Hello Everyone:
At my institution, our peer tutors have a regular hours they work each week. Within those scheduled hours, students can schedule tutoring appointments. But regardless of whether the tutors actually have appointments or not, they are available and paid for their scheduled hours. During hours in which tutors are available but don’t have appointments, they are free to work on their own homework and still get paid for those hours. I have a few questions regarding my peer tutoring program model for anyone who is willing to share their input.
- For anyone who has a similar model for their peer tutoring program at your institution, what would you say is a good percentage of time tutors are actually in appointments versus the total hours they are working?
- Do you allow your peer tutors to work on their own homework if they do not have scheduled appointments and still get paid for the hours?
- Does anyone use a different model for scheduling tutoring appointments? If so, could you please briefly explain.
Any input is greatly appreciated!
Thank you all! Happy Thanksgiving!

I’d like to hear input on this topic as well.
We also have a similar models where we do allow our tutors to complete their own homework during their unscheduled hours with pay.
I do not believe we have concluded on an appropriate ratio of scheduled v non-scheduled paid hours.
I’m interested to see how other institutions model their tutoring centers.
