Embedded tutoring is intended to:
1) Engage, retain, and empower students to persist in their educational and professional goals.
2) Foster a supportive classroom environment that will challenge students to reach new heights in their learning.
3) Support students through extra support from a trained classroom tutor.
4) Inspire students through having a class tutor who also acts as a guide and rolemodel.
5) Create a partnership between instructor and tutor that increases productivity and depth of learning during group work, one-on-one tutoring, and other class activities.
6) Support the growth of tutors in their educational and professional goals and offer a rewarding experience that will allow them to build their interpersonal and leadership skills and develop their teaching philosophy.
