“This book is the perfect companion to its predecessor ‘Effective Personal Tutoring in Higher Education’. Moving from tutoring theory to case study based examples provides a rich set of examples for new and experienced personal tutors. The companion is accessible for practitioners and for those developing personal tutoring frameworks. As an acting personal tutor and academic lead for developing personal tutoring systems, I have found this book has supported the development of my practice and in opening discussions with colleagues around coaching and tutoring. I would recommend this book to anyone involved in tutoring in higher education.”

“Building on their 2018 guide to personal tutoring, Lochtie et al (2022) provides 25 case studies illustrating how to translate theory into practice. A “themes” table enables the reader to navigate the wealth of material, and also to make connections to the relevant sections of the companion text. The valuable case studies are diverse in terms of writers, institutions and topics, and each one ends with critical reflections to move the reader on in their professional practice. Once again, this is an excellent text which would be of great value to all involved in supporting students directly or organising and managing such support.”
