ABSTRACT
Abstract: The following article concerns the issue of tutoring and peer tutoring which can be applied across different academic settings. The authors present the historical background of tutoring and peer-tutoring in English higher education, which developed in the Middle Ages, to be then subsequently used in other educational spheres in Britain and worldwide. However, the reasons for using the practice of tutelage at universities and schools differed considerably. Whereas at colleges it was applied for enhancing personal development of its undergraduates, at other types of schools it served addressing problems arising from unstable and volatile conditions in the state’s social, economic or educational policies. Material and methods: nie dotyczy Results: nie dotyczy Conclusions: Presently, due to a renewed interest in the individualisation of educational practices, tutoring and peer-tutoring are experiencing an increasing acceptance in a variety of didactic programmes and curricula both in higher education and at lower educational levels.
