Before the start of the lecture period, students at the Faculty of Humanities have the opportunity to prepare themselves didactically for their role as student tutors. The qualification course starts on March 30!

Did you know that the humanities faculty offers its own program for student tutors? The Office for Studies and Careers (AStuB) offers seminars, counseling, and a teaching practice certificate for tutors, and also advises teachers on all university teaching issues related to tutorials.

A qualification course for student tutors will take place from April 2 to 4 for the 2025 summer semester. The course will cover the didactic basics of planning and conducting a tutorial so that the start of the winter semester can be as successful as possible. Further information on the event can be found in the course catalog of the Office for Studies and Careers.

Dear tutors, We look forward to receiving your registration—and dear teachers, we would be delighted if you could inform your tutors about our offer! If you have any further questions or need assistance, please contact Nadia Blüthmann directly.
