Description
Summary:Background: Peer tutoring is a process of accompaniment carried out by a student with certain features and skills, whose objective is to support and guide, academically and emotionally, other students who may require it. Aim: To assess the experience of medical students who played the role of peer tutor. Material and Methods: We carried out semi-structured in-depth interviews, with prior informed consent, to a non-probabilistic and intentional sample of six students who performed the role of peer tutor, during 2017 and 2018. The data analysis followed the scheme of constant comparison and progressive reduction in a manual way, according to the comparative method, guaranteeing scientific rigor, maintaining criteria of credibility, dependence, confirmability, and transferability. Results: The first level identified 234 units of meaning that originated in the third level, two qualitative domains, oriented to the contribution of peer tutors derived from their experience to strengthen both the process of peer tutor training and the management of peer tutoring. Conclusions: Peer tutoring as a teaching-learning strategy contributes to the development of generic competences and metacognitive skills, generating high levels of personal satisfaction and identification their teaching role.
