Abstract
The purpose of this study is to identify competencies that peer tutors should possess in activities that promote learning motivation and learning improvement for their tutees and to investigate the educational needs for them at the K-university. To do so, we first conducted extant literature review and obtained expert consultation to identify relevant competencies of peer tutors. Second, the needs analysis using t-test, Borich needs, the Locus for Focus model was implemented to prioritize educational needs for peer tutors. Based on the results, implications and suggestions were discussed.
