Peer Tutoring

Peer Tutoring took place from March to December 2017. The tutors for the Peer Tutoring course were mostly from grade 11. Those
who were selected as tutors were those who had excelled in their given subject area. Subjects taught included Math, Chinese,
Korean, Biology and Social studies. There were two reasons for the establishment of the Peer Tutoring courses. The first reason
was to give our grade 11 students an opportunity to gain some experience in planning lessons and teaching, as some of them had
expressed an interest in pursuing teaching as their future career. The second reason was to give our G7-G10 students a chance to
get some extra help with subjects which they found difficult. Overall the Peer Tutoring courses proved to be very successful, with
the tutors gaining valuable experience, and the students who participated obtained access to in-depth tuition, helping them to
excel in academically.
