The course unit is intended for Tampere University’s students who act as a sports tutor. In the universities’ community, a sports tutor offers peer support, enables sports hobbies, and encourages fellow students in their sporty activities. The sports tutor drafts a tutoring plan, participates in the activities for at least one semester and writes an essay reflecting on his or her experiences of being a sports tutor. Sports tutors are introduced to the roles and tasks of a sports tutor, Tampere Universities’ sports services and other sporting possibilities in the Tampere region.
