I loved the tips! Good job!
Great well-researched article. The pro’s definitely seem to outweigh the cons and I really liked the quote from Jeff Atwood.
I’m using a similar method for helping entrepreneurs learn the business skills they need by connecting them together in virtual mastermind groups and showing them that their peers are often the best source of advice and support.
Thanks again for confirming my bias (that this type of learning works)
Very helpful article. Please I need someone to help me write a literature review on how peer tutoring affects academic performance of students
