Tutoring system
Student tutors
Tutoring is an organized help for students based on a personal approach.
Student tutors guide their protégés (students) and advise them on how to solve their problems. The tutor can also advise students on their choice of study fields, elective courses, further studies, etc. The purpose of tutoring is to strengthen the contacts between students by exchanging useful information and experiences in the field of studies and student affairs.
Tutors from Master’s study programs can offer undergraduate students’ information from their personal study experience.

How do I become student tutor?
Preprosto! Tutor študent je lahko vsak redni ali izredni študent, ki je uspešno zaključil prvi letnik študija na UP FAMNIT in je vpisan na 1., 2. ali 3. stopnjo študija na UP FAMNIT. Kandidat za tutorja študenta se prijavi na (letni) razpis za tutorje študente. Kandidati, ki bodo ustrezali razpisnim pogojem in bodo izbrani bodo prejeli sklep o imenovanju v tutorja študenta. Mandat študenta tutorja traja eno študijsko leto.It’s easy! Student tutor can be any student who successfully completed their first year and is enrolled as a BSc, MSc or PhD student at UP FAMNIT. Tutor candidate should fill in the application form and deliver it to the Office of Student Services. Applicants who meet the conditions of the call for applications and are selected will receive a formal decision on their appointment as student tutors. The term of office of a student tutor is one academic year.
Rules on the tutoring system at the University of Primorska are available at THIS LINK.
The Rules stipulate that the Open Call for tutors is published at least once a year, no later than 1 March.
Tutor work report
By October 10, the student tutor must submit a work report for each academic year to the coordinator of faculty student tutors on the prescribed form. Student tutor must ensure that the report is (co)signed by the coordinator of the student tutors at the faculty.
The coordinator of faculty student tutors submits a report on the work of the tutors to the coordinator of teacher tutors of the faculty by October 15 at the latest.
The coordinator of faculty teacher tutors reviews the report of student tutors and proposes to the competent committee the confirmation of the report.
Useful information
The tutors have some useful materials available to help them with their work.
You can read everything about the tutoring system in the Priročniku za tutorje Univerze na Primorskem.Tutoring guides for students with special needs and for foreign students are also available.
Training of student tutors
Tutors have the opportunity for education and training in various workshops and sessions. These are conducted within the framework of Continuing Education for tutors.
Here you can watch a short video about the training of tutors during past academic years.
Teacher tutors
Teacher tutors advise mainly individually. They help students with their studies with the aim of improving their academic achievements in individual fields of study, advise on the choice of elective courses and answer questions about progression to a higher year, completion of studies, and the choice of mentor in the final work. In particular, teacher tutors are available to students with the status of a student with special needs and together they create an individualized study plan.
