Peer Assisted Learning

Benefits for PAL Leaders

This page includes details on the advantages of becoming a PAL Leader, such as:

  • Full training provided

  • Networking opportunities
  • Free session resources
  • Enhanced CV (work experience)
  • Coaching Experience
  • Ongoing support from PAL team and academics

Other Benefits

  • Over the course of the academic year, presentation and leadership abilities develop because Leaders are required to deliver compelling presentations to a group of students once a week.
  • In order to organize and conduct their PAL sessions effectively, leaders must improve their time management abilities.
  • PALs emphasize the value of going over and reviewing the Year 1 course contents once more because doing so supports their studies in Year 2.
  • Additionally, you can use this as an opportunity to meet new people from both your PAL group and the larger PAL Leader community at the university.
