o Tutor-Tutee Program

Target Group: Foundation till 3rd Year 1st Semester students

Throughout the semester

IChemE-UTP-SC is planning to organize a Tutor-Tutee Program as a sub-event for Chemical Exposure Symposium to help students in their academics. In the program, we will target two more demanding and challenging subjects in each semester and therefore provide seniors as tutors to the juniors. We foresee that this Tutor-Tutee Program will benefit the students. As a matter of fact, the students will be having extra guidance and assistance in these tougher subjects. The plan is that we will organize classes at least once a week, 1-2 hours per session. In those sessions, the tutees may ask questions regarding each specific subject which they are not clear or need further clarification. The tutor-tutee program will also focus on the final exam papers towards the end of the semester to prepare the students for the final exam. If demanded, we will also be doing a recap or revision on the whole course for the students before the final exam or study week.
