Effective Personal Tutoring in Higher Education

This is an important new text for all lecturers within higher education (HE) who have a personal tutoring role. It introduces the concept of coaching and personal tutoring within HE, examines the core values and skills required by the tutor, looks in detail at student engagement and the student experience in relation to the tutoring role and the need to measure impact. Throughout, the text encourages reflection and the need to think critically about the role of the personal tutor. In addition, it contextualises the role within the HE quality assurance landscape including the UK Quality Code and the Teaching Excellence Framework.
