Résumé:Background: Peer tutoring enhances academic success and confidence in nursing students. Effective peer tutoring requires preparation, focusing on teaching and learning modalities to equip tutors with the necessary skills, knowledge, and confidence. Method: Utilizing a backward-design approach, this project developed and implemented an evidence-based peer tutor training program to improve peer tutors' confidence in their knowledge and skills in teaching other students. The training included asynchronous modules on key tutoring principles and one in-person simulated session. Undergraduate baccalaureate nursing students who met the criteria and were interested in tutoring completed the training. Results: Confidence in peer tutoring was measured using pre- and postsurveys. Peer tutors reported a 43% increase in confidence and demonstrated improved tutoring skills. Conclusion: Evidence-based preparation enhances tutors' knowledge, confidence, and competency, enabling them to teach other students.
