Peer reviewedGiesecke, Denise; And Others – Preventing School Failure, 1993
This study evaluated a cross-age peer tutoring intervention using four low-achieving grade-four students as tutors and three grade-three students reading at grade level. Tutors and tutees all improved their sight word performance substantially. All participants reported they liked the program and tutors also improved in self-concept. (DB)
