Tutor development 

At Te Puna Ako Centre for Tertiary Teaching and Learning, we provide training, resources, and support to casual or part-time tutors, demonstrators and sessional assistants.

Introduction to Tutoring Programme

Are you new to casual tutoring at the University of Waikato? Have you tutored before, but would like a refresher? If so, join us for our self-paced tutoring programme. In 2023, we have five self-paced modules available. You can also sign up for our Tutoring Mailing List to hear about workshops and events throughout the year.

The online modules are:

Module 1: The Professional Sessional
Module 2: Planning a session
Module 3: Classroom Strategies
Module 4: Feedback and marking
Module 5: Growth and support

If you are a new tutor, and you complete the Modules or participate in the introductory workshops, you can claim paid time. We suggest you allow around 2.5 hours to complete the modules.

You can register using this online form.
