interactions among students. However, limited research has explored the specific impact of peer
promoting academic development and enhancing students' learning experiences. One important
aspect to consider in these programs is the impact on students' academic self-efficacy. Academic
self-efficacy refers to an individual's belief in their ability to perform tasks and achieve academic
success. Understanding how peer tutoring programs influence students' academic self-efficacy is
crucial for educational institutions and policymakers seeking to improve student outcomes.

learning sources in an on line environment. The result showed strong positive feedback for and

concern.
analysis of finding tutored students outperformed control students on examinations, and they also
developed positive attitudes toward the subject matter covered in the tutorial programs. The
meta-analysis also showed that tutoring programs have positive effects on children who serve as
tutors.
Comfort (2011) demonstrated that peer tutoring during practical sessions on applied
sports science programs can enhance the achievement of tutees during practical assessments. It is
therefore recommended that peer tutoring is adopted as an effective teaching and learning
method for the development of students’ practical skills during undergraduate sports science
degrees.

Douglas Fuchs et.al (1997) determined the effectiveness of a class wide peer tutoring
program in reading for three learner types: low achievers with and without disabilities and
average achievers. Findings indicated that, irrespective of type of measure and type of learner,
students in peer tutoring classrooms demonstrated greater reading progress. Horvath (2011)
made a research work on Effects of Peer Tutoring on Student Achievement. The results
demonstrated higher average retelling scores for the students who were engaged in the peer
tutoring activity. The findings indicated peer tutoring as an effective instructional strategy,
Iman Almarzouqi (2006) has conducted qualitative research on peer tutoring. The aim of
the study was to evaluate the English language peer tutoring programme in order to highlight
benefits and challenges and to make informed improvements. Benefits for tutors such as learning
through teaching and becoming more responsible while doing something worthwhile to help
others. Benefits of tutees included improved levels of self -confidence and English language
aptitude.
Mustafa (2011) demonstrated that a revision program can be designed, developed and
delivered by recent medical graduates without external influences from colleagues. The result

showed that junior doctors successfully effectively design, develop and co-ordinate a revision
program to a large number of students. Okilwa (2010) have examined the effects of peer tutoring
on academic performance of students with disabilities in grades six through 12 peer tutoring was
reported as effective for special education students in both general education and special

usually carried out by students of higher courses (“peer mentoring”), who, by means of a tutoring
process, orient the first-year students and students of exchange programs academically and
professionally. These mentoring programs place emphasis on the connection between academic
and social aspects.In the Spanish university sphere, mentoring programs focus on a link between
the students and the diverse resources that the Institution provides for the University

There have been such actions in other countries, but, as noted by Wang (2001), the
characteristics and context of each country causes mentors and mentees to differ in their beliefs,
in the way they interact, and in their needs, which makes generalization from one country to
Kram (1983, 1985) suggests that there are four phases in a mentoring process: initiation,
cultivation or development, separation, and redefinition. In the first phase, the definition of the
purpose of mentoring, the verbalization of the perceptions and expectations of mentors and
mentees, their mutual knowledge of each other, the establishment of goals and the planning of
the sessions are especially relevant In the cultivation or development phase, the mentee should
develop proactive behavior, whereas the mentor guides the session, reviews the goals and action
plans, analyzes the successes and difficulties that have arisen, and establishes new goals and
actions. The third phase, separation, implies the beginning of the mentee’s independence from
the mentor. In the last phase, the mentoring relation is over and a more informal and supportive
relationship between mentors and mentees may evolve. Participant selection was done by means
of a two wave sampling. At the beginning, it was decided that only the students of the morning

shift could participate in the program, so the afternoon group made up the control group. Then,
the mentoring program was presented to the students of the morning shift and, as recommended
by Tokar, Fischer, and Subich (1998) and Allen (2003), they voluntarily decided whether or not
to participate.
We think that the results obtained indicate the efficacy of the program, especially with
regard to career development function, which reveals the existence of benefits of implementing
mentoring programs in university contexts. Nevertheless, the generalization of the results found
is subject to some limitations of the sample used in this investigation, particularly, its size.
Consequently,similar assessments in other academic contexts and with larger samples are
needed, in which the participants are analyzed before and after implementation of the mentoring

4. Peer role modeling: Peer tutoring programs provide opportunities for students to serve as
role models for their peers. By pairing students with successful and knowledgeable peers,
institutions can inspire and motivate students to strive for academic excellence.
5. Transferable skills: Participation in peer tutoring programs not only benefits the students
receiving support but also the students acting as tutors. Tutors develop valuable
communication, leadership, and mentoring skills, which can have a positive impact on
for educational institutions. By utilizing existing student resources and creating structured

The present study has shown that may students are have experience positive impact in
their academic self-efficacy and academic performances. It is recommended that future studies
should continue to monitor the significant impact of peer tutoring programs for grade 10
students. It would be beneficial to have this study conducted throughout the whole grade level,
so that the experience of peer tutoring programs might have been specifically measured.
However, the researchers recommend to get validators who are expert in the field and at the
same time who are teaching, so that the validators may consider the level of comprehension.
