STUDENT-TUTOR PROJECT
The tutor student program is an innovative project in tutorial action that tries to put into practice a social action model, supported by collaborative work/learning, through which the students of the 1st yer of Bachillerato (student tutors) practice and learn social skills, assuming certain tutorial responsibilities with students from other educational stages. The tutored students, usually belonging to the first ESO course, will have the personalized support of a tutor during their stay at the Center.
“The process of teaching is so close to learning that they should never be separated from each other. You teach while you learn and you learn while you teach”.
This model of intervention and accompaniment aims to take advantage pedagogically to the differences between students, allowing diversity to be treated not as aproblem but as a resource that makes possible the help for the tutored student and the training for the tutor student.
The Department of School Guidance coordinates the actions of the student tutors and carries out a follow-up through periodic meetings with them as well as the tutors' teachers of the tutored students. Student tutors will usually use spaces for recreation to share. Using in particular one break per week to spend time with his tutors.
