Personal Tutoring resources

To support the tutoring process, resources have been recommended by Personal and Senior Tutors at the university. They are either based on their own practice, or taken from other universities, and include self-assessment analyses which can be used to stimulate group and individual discussions.

There is also a timeline of topics which could be discussed across the student journey, from a first meeting with tutees in Stage One, to final year tutorials. These, and our guidance on inclusive one to one tutorials and inclusive group tutorials, are provided as a starting point. They can be found on the Resources and Training page of the Learning & Teaching @ Newcastle site.
