Reviews

This book is the perfect companion to its predecessor ‘Effective Personal Tutoring in Higher Education’. Moving from tutoring theory to case study based examples provides a rich set of examples for new and experienced personal tutors. The companion is accessible for practitioners and for those developing personal tutoring frameworks. As an acting personal tutor and academic lead for developing personal tutoring systems, I have found this book has supported the development of my practice and in opening discussions with colleagues around coaching and tutoring. I would recommend this book to anyone involved in tutoring in higher education. Dr Lisa Simmons, Senior Lecturer, Manchester Metropolitan University
