Best preparation for prospective tutors
They provide support on an equal level and are as close to the needs of the students as teachers can hardly be: student tutors or mentors. They therefore have an important function at Frankfurt UAS - and the need for students who would like to take on such work is correspondingly great. In order to optimally prepare those interested for this work, a qualification program for student tutors and mentors was created
What role do I play as a mentor? How can I support my fellow students when starting their studies? How do I plan my tutorial in a didactically sensible way? – Prospective tutors or mentors face many questions. The Frankfurt UAS qualification program provides answers: students are optimally prepared for their work at the university in interactive workshops and exchange formats. For example, they learn how to make a tutorial varied or how to give constructive feedback. At the same time, they acquire valuable key skills for their future professional lives.
The Frankfurt UAS tutor qualification includes a basic qualification at the start of the semester as well as in-depth offerings throughout the semester, peer exchange formats and professional support from the program coordinator.
