Student Employment
Peer Tutors and Student Support Staff
PEER TUTORS
The Tutoring Center welcomes applications for new tutors in all academic subjects. (We most often review applications for biology, chemistry, and modern languages, but we hire for other areas of study regularly.) Peer tutor positions are competitive, as tutoring is an excellent opportunity to assist others, build communication and leadership skills, strengthen your knowledge of your areas of study, and build your resume. If we cannot offer you a position at the time of your initial application or we are not currently hiring for the subject-area in which you would like to tutor, your application will be kept on file for future semesters.
To become a peer tutor, a student must have:
- A cumulative GPA of 3.0 or higher
- Sophomore standing or higher
- Excellent communication skills
- Faculty recommendations (List contact info for references on application. Please do not request that faculty send letters with application.)
All new peer tutors must participate in a required tutor training program.
To apply, download an application download an application (PDF) and drop it off at the Tutoring Center. For more information about becoming a tutor, contact:
