The English Skills Peer Tutors
Approximately 16 English Skills Peer Tutors
provide peer tutoring in the EWC.
Some of the peer tutors are
-
Grossmont students or students from another community college,
-
former Grossmont students who started as tutors while studying at
Grossmont and have maintained their jobs in the EWC while finishing
upper division work at San Diego State University, or are
-
graduate students at San Diego State University; many of them
aspire to teach English at the community college level. All English Skills Peer Tutors are initially selected as a result of
their high achievement in English classes and their high writing
proficiency; also, all newly hired English Skills Peer Tutors engage
in rigorous training to enhance their understanding of grammar,
punctuation, and the writing process.
