Peer Tutors

Peer Tutors at Richmond are current students who are paid by the University to offer academic support to others across a range of subject areas. If you’re finding a particular topic challenging, at least one of our Tutors is likely to have relevant experience that they can share.

Peer Tutors don’t do your work for you (this is likely to be considered plagiarism). Instead, they offer guidance and supporting knowledge to help you achieve your potential. If you do request a Peer Tutor, you will be asked to accept several terms and conditions which make the role of the Tutor, and our expectations of you, clear.

Peer Tutoring is paid for by the University and so we encourage any students to participate who may benefit.

Please have a look at our tutor profiles below and make contact using the email links at the bottom of each profile.
