1. Teacher Recommendation Form
Contact the teacher of the subject(s) you wish to tutor and ask them to complete this recommendation form! **Here is a script on how to approach your teachers to request a recommendation! Be sure to have each teacher fill out the form for every subject you wish to tutor for. **
2. Application
Once the teacher submits their rec., Sarah Wong (Peer Tutor Trainer) will review their responses to determine your eligibility to apply as a peer tutor. If the eligibility criteria is met, Sarah Wong will contact you with instructions to complete the peer tutor application form.

4. Getting a Tutee
Following your training, Maggie Shen (Database Manager) will create a personalized tutor profile with the information provided on your application. Potential tutees will browse tutor profiles and submit requests. If a tutee requests you, Maggie will contact you to confirm your availability. **Failure to respond to a request will result in a drop from this program.**
5. Get Matched
Once you are matched with a tutee, Maggie will then connect you with them. Before your tutoring sessions can begin, you must fill out this Contract Request Form with your information. Mrs. Kat will then email a contract for electronic signatures.​ Read carefully and adhere to the norms & conditions specified in the contract. You may begin tutoring as soon as you receive an email confirmation from Mrs. Kat.
