Hey!
Well I think I found this great site, that first explains why peer tutoring is very important in some courses and how becoming a peer tutor is a great skill to learn. Then it starts going into the different methods a peer tutor can use to excel at what he/she is doing. This site focuses on how simple things such as, teaching an exchange student how to save a picture off the internet, can make a big change and how that itself (teaching a person how to do something) is a great skill to learn. This site has some videos about each of the cases presented that show how a peer tutor should interact with the student he or she has been asigned to focus on. I found this site interesting because some of these "peer tutors" are young elementary mentors who are teaching people younger than them how to do something very simple such as take a picture with a camera, and this is why i chose it.
