Peer Tutoring
Peer Tutoring
Peer Tutors are students who excel in their areas of study and who enjoy helping fellow students achieve academic success. We are trained according to national College Reading and Learning Association (CRLA) standards.
Our goal as tutors is to help students become active, independent learners. We use a variety of techniques such as questioning, modeling, listening, and demonstration. Tutoring is not intended to be a substitute for class attendance or a quick fix the day before an exam. Peer tutors help in a wide range of subjects. They are also on hand to assist students with accessing Blackboard pages and online course materials.

Embedded Tutoring
The Embedded Tutor Program is a semester-long initiative designed to provide students with additional, targeted support in select courses at MassBay Community College. Through a collaboration with the Academic Achievement Center (AAC) and SUCCESS Initiative, faculty will be matched with students who have previously excelled in their course. By partnering with faculty, embedded tutors strengthen classroom learning, reinforce course material, and foster a collaborative learning environment. Together, faculty and embedded tutors create a space that helps students build confidence, master course material, and succeed at MassBay.
Students and faculty interested in participating in the Embedded Tutoring Program should contact the AAC directly at aac@massbay.edu.
