Peer Tutored Paired Reading: outcome data from ten projects

Abstract In the context of a large scale dissemination project, ten different peer tutor projects were conducted, and procedures and outcomes are reviewed in this paper. Pre‐and post‐test data are reported for all studies, while four studies also have baseline data and two studies have comparison group data. Two studies have follow‐up data for the short and long term respectively. The evidence reviewed suggests that peer tutored paired reading accelerates children's reading progress, with peer tutors gaining more than tutees.
