Peer-tutors are undergraduates with majors and concentrations across the various UH West Oʻahu disciplines. They have been selected through a competitive application process, for their exceptional reading, writing, mathematics, and subject content abilities, their broad intellectual curiosity, their keen interpersonal skills, and their desire to assist and learn with their peers. Once peer-tutors have been accepted, these individuals complete various training sessions designed to educate them in peer-tutoring techniques and the challenges of different disciplines.
