Mission Statement
Peer Mentor Network taps into the innate strengths of every individual, providing an adaptive,
peer-to-peer learning environment for
underserved students.
The Peer-to-Peer Advantage
Students understand each other and offer a judgement-free experience in which no question is off-limits. Our tutors are adept at modifying their curricula in response to individual needs. As students ourselves, we know how satisfying it is to master a concept and strive to provide others with the same experience.
Our ultimate goal is to make the students of today the "peer mentors" of tomorrow.
Our Promise
At Peer Mentor Network, you can expect:
Openness
Every voice matters. Peer Mentor Network accepts students and tutors from all backgrounds.
Accuracy
We encourage our students to ask questions. Your tutor will answer all questions to the best of their ability; if they aren't sure of an answer, they will find it.
Communication
We teach our tutors to follow the four Es: engage, educate, express, and entertain. Your experience with Peer Mentor Network will always be a dialogue, not a monologue.
Friendship
Your tutor will never laugh at your questions or comments. Our tutors want to develop a friendly relationship with each of their students—we see ourselves as our students' equals.
Reliability
Tutors are required to be at sessions at a predetermined, mutually agreed upon time. We value dependability as much as academic capability—we know that you count on us.
Privacy
Our tutors are not permitted to disclose any details about their students. All sessions are confidential.
