Description:
Society's evolving perception of the role of & value of higher education relates to education's role in employment. Employment is the most cited reason for school completion. The creation of peer tutoring programs was to improve the academic performance of underprepared students. This study evaluated tutors registered in the Tutorial Training Course T-15 at Chabot College, Hayward, California. The Tutor Evaluation & Self-Assessment Tool (TESAT) was utilized to measure the tutors' performance. Thirty tutors performed the pre- & post-assessments. The instructor also evaluated the tutors with the TESAT, after the tutors' post-assessments to investigate the relationship between the tutors' & their instructor's perception of their tutorial skill. The tutors rated themselves as being proficient. There was a moderate correlation between the tutors' & the instructor's assessments. Attempts are currently being made to certify Chabot College's Tutorial Instructional Program with the College Reading & Learning Association. This certification in the field of tutorial education will assist the enhancement of the tutoring profession.
