Every student in our University will have a personal tutor assigned to him or her. Personal tutors are academic members of staff and their responsibility is to help students develop and maintain their wellbeing, support their academic and personal development, help them understand University practices and standards, enhance their employability, help them build a sense of community and refer them to the appropriate support services.
Personal tutors help their tutees develop and maximize their potential.
Tutorials are led by students. Students should come prepared and willing to talk about their experiences, their successes, their plans for the future and any issues they are facing. However, personal tutorials are for all students, not just students who are facing difficulties.
