What is Tutoring?

In this ESF-funded project, a qualification for tutors of all study programs of the TU Dresden is offered.

The qualification is based on the individual needs of the students and the subject-specific requirements of the study programs. In addition to the preparation for the tutorial teaching activity, competencies are promoted in all participants that are also useful in later professional life, both in the application process and in everyday working life. The overall goal of the project is a central qualification for tutors of all study programs of the TU Dresden.

Have you made the leap and become a tutor? But you still lack tips and tricks for the preparation and implementation of your tutorial? Tutoring helps you with the planning of your (digital) tutorial and with any difficulties that may arise. The individual and free qualification offers exciting events, clarifies your questions and gives you the chance to develop yourself with professional support.

Experiences of our participants

Edward, tutor at the chair for health and nursing/professional didactics

"Tutoring offers an excellent content overview of TU Dresden services, didactic basics as well as visualization for experienced tutors and newcomers. The workshops are moderated by dedicated leaders who respond to the ideas of all course participants. Exercises break up the sessions and provide space for individual feedback."

Anne, Practical Course Leader

"Tutoring for me has been an instruction manual and toolbox all in one. Better yet, it's responsive to questions. Thus prepared, tutors can go into practice more confidently and hopefully be rewarded with good exam results afterwards."

Jessica, Tutor at the Chair of Magnetofluid Dynamics, Measurement and Automation Technology

As a tutor, I have a teaching assignment that I am happy to fulfill. I am looking forward to getting security and feedback from qualified trainers with didactic backgrounds by participating in tutoring. This will allow me to check for myself where there are still possibilities to change something in the tutorial for a smoother flow.

"Das TUTORING Projekt ermöglicht uns die Sicht von Studierenden auf unsere Lehrveranstaltungen einzunehmen. Insbesondere die Selbststudienphase der Studierenden wird durch eine durchdachte Strukturierung und Überarbeitung der Lehrunterlagen angeleitet und gestärkt."

Modules of the Qualification

Target group: Tutors who, for example, guide exercises and (laboratory) practicals.

There are 4 central modules that all tutors can join at any time during the academic year:
