Tutors

As a student, have you felt that you could have an older student as an advisor? A person who understands all your difficulties in adapting to university studies and knows how to search for information and navigate university affairs? Who organizes joint events and listens in case of concerns? Who shares tips and knowledge about learning and support systems in university?

If you had a good tutor, come and continue his work! If you didn’t have a tutor or you didn’t get the help you expected from him, become a tutor yourself!

All students can become a tutor every spring semester. You will be notified of the application period for tutor training in the student mailbox.

What does the tutor training offer the student?

“Tutoring has been self-fulfillment for me. For example, helping first-year students, which I myself am happy about. It gives me a positive feeling when someone has received help from me.”

“I am very glad that I decided to become a tutor. Thanks to this, I have made many nice acquaintances and crazy experiences. I learned to communicate, care, notice and know myself better. The ability to assert oneself as part of communication is extremely important both in the company of friends and professionally.”
Carmen Kilvits

“The insanely positive atmosphere and free communication made the tutor training enjoyable. To be honest, the Wednesday meetings felt like evenings of conversation with friends and peers. --- Thanks to this, I have made many new acquaintances, I dare to speak up or help confused students.”
