Tutor&Tutee Program

The 'KUBS TNT (Tutor & Tutee)' program, a tutoring program for KUBS.

Understanding how many current KUBS students are working as part-time tutors after school, the KUBS runs a program through which students can receive financial aid by teaching juniors or foreign students who are struggling with current major classes.
The TNT program is currently looking for students who can help current KUBS students and international students on major studies, as well as mentees who are looking for academic support. By forming study groups, the TNT program aims at promoting academic exchanges and improving academic performance.
