Welcome to the Peer-Supported Learning Centre

Students working together at a PSLG session

The Peer-Supported Learning Centre assists students of historically difficult core modules from faculties all across the campus.

Based on the concept of "Working Better by Working Together", the PSLC uses small-group based sessions where students work together with their peers and a trained leader who guides them through exercises that they work together on to deepen their understanding of the core concepts of the module being supported.

We call these sessions Peer-Supported Learning Groups or PSLG.

The PSLG sessions give students a chance to better understand the material, but also to make new friends in their classes, to see that not only they are finding the content challenging and to ask questions in a safe, risk-free environment.

If you think the students of your module could benefit from this approach, or you'd like to ask any other questions please feel free to reach out to us at peerlearning or explore this site for more information.
