ACADEMICS

PROGRAM MISSION

In our academics program, we aim to equip our mentees with not just suitable preparation for their schoolwork, but also with the skills to develop a meaningful depth of knowledge. This fosters healthy and effective habits, which form the foundation for future learning. We encourage students to share their opinions and personal perspectives, developing great speaking and comprehensive skills. At the same time, we challenge them by asking analytic questions, activating their problem-solving and critical-thinking skills. This, along with our personally customizable mentorship curriculum, is what sets Peer2Peer apart.

Our mentors are high school students from local and international schools, as well as undergraduate and postgraduate students from universities in Hong Kong and abroad. Each mentor is carefully selected to ensure they meet academic and ethical standards. Our services target underprivileged students in Primary P.3 to Secondary F.3 who need tutoring, providing assistance in subjects such as Chinese, English, Mathematics, and Science based on demand.

1) Online academic mentoring Program

All academic mentoring sessions are “free“.
Our services target includes grassroots or underprivileged students from Primary P.3 to Secondary F.3.
We offer tutoring in subjects like Chinese, English, Mathematics, and Science.
One-on-one or small group “Zoom” online sessions.
Student Mentors will be matched with each student based on their grade, ability, and subject.
Each semester, the mentorship program includes 10 hours of sessions.
The scheduling of mentoring sessions can be arranged according to the needs of the students and parents.
The first one to two sessions will be trial classes; if both parties are satisfied, the sessions will continue.
For the Year 2026/27 Mentoring Program:
1st semester will start in September 2026 and conclude in December 2026.
2nd semester will start in January 2027 and conclude in end of March 2027.
3rd semester will start in March 2027 and conclude in June 2027.

2) Student-Driven Project – It is all about turning your ideas into reality.

This program empowers mentors to bring their own community initiatives to life. Student mentors can collaborate on group projects—often tied to CAS requirements or school assignments—covering academic topics like English, Maths, Science experiments, or non-academic areas like Art, Music, and Sports.

Mentors can design and lead their own curriculum either individually or with friends. Projects run for a minimum of 6 hours total, scheduled over weekends or after school during the term.

In previous years, we have partnered with student mentor groups from Canadian International School, ISF Academy, ICS, Singapore International School, South Island School, German Swiss International School, St. Paul’s Co-educational College, Creative Secondary School, and more. We also serve as CAS supervisors and provide official reference sign-offs upon completion.

Here is a quick overview of how the program works:

– Design Your Own Course: You will get to create and teach your own content in subjects like Academics, Science Experiments, Art, or Performance Art, sports.

– Go Solo or Team Up: You can lead the project on your own or collaborate with classmates and friends.

– Time Commitment: The project requires a total of 6 to 25 hours.

– Flexible Scheduling: You can choose to run your project over the Holiday, or on the Weekends or after school during the school year.

How P2P Supports You:
We are here to help! P2P will assist with mentee recruitment, provide project guidance, and supply a small budget for materials. Upon completion, you will receive a reference letter and validated entries for your school logbook.

Next Steps:
Please feel free to send over a summary or proposal for your program to admin@peer2peer.hk or WhatsApp’s to (852) 9048 9849. We will just need a few details to get started:

– The program’s core content

– The duration (number of classes and the length of each class)

– Your proposed dates

Once you send that over, we can discuss your proposal in more detail and get your program scheduled. Looking forward to hearing your ideas!😊

Student-Driven Project

Peer2Peer believes in fostering a love for reading and writing at a young age. While working on the basics of the English language (i.e. grammar instruction, sentence structures, vocabulary expansion, and simple writing practices), we also try to provide interesting and stimulating literature. Using poems, short stories, and fun news articles that are suitable for their level of proficiency enriches the experience of the student while developing their reading skills. In terms of writing, we will help students in writing fluent, logical sentences, while equipping them with useful writing devices. Mentees will have great tools under their belt when taking exams or writing compositions. We hope that this can not only lead to a blooming interest in reading text, but also their willingness to share their thoughts and challenge different perspectives at a young age. We understand that students have different needs when it comes to the English subject. Peer2Peer welcomes students to voice out the specific areas in which they want to work on more, or even if they want more advanced materials. We have our own selection of exercises, practice books, and materials that have been carefully chosen by students who know the Hong Kong English curriculum best. More challenging materials can even be chosen personally by our mentors based on your requests!

Our Student Mentor come from schools in Hong Kong and the United States, fluent in both English and Cantonese, ensuring smooth communication. We will match each student with the most suitable tutor, allowing them to feel comfortable and engaged during the learning process!

The topics we cover include:

Grammar guidance, sentence structure, how to write logically clear English sentences
Writing techniques (vocabulary, rhetorical devices, structure)
Analytical reading and writing (analyzing appropriate texts and literary works)
Providing basic or advanced practice questions based on needs
Class schedules can be arranged according to the needs of students and parents
Sessions conducted via Zoom

Math is a subject of problem-solving and critical thinking, which are two of the highest values we aim to equip students with here at Peer2Peer. Our mentees range from grade 3 to grade 9 (Primary P.3 to Secondary F.3), which means the mathematical topics that are covered at school span from basic arithmetic, algebra, geometry, to simple statistics. To tackle this, we have our own personal selection of exercises and practices that can help with students’ schoolwork. At the same time, we can also provide them with more advanced or foundational materials, depending on their level of proficiency or personal need.

We hope to make math fun and enjoyable for all of our mentees, as learning from a peer may be different than learning it from a teacher. We encourage our mentees to raise good questions, use different possible methods to solve issues, and to notice hidden connections. Through this, we hope to equip mentees with solid fundamental skills, and a strong mathematical sense that can aid them in their exams and future math courses as well.

Our Student Mentor come from schools in Hong Kong and the United States, fluent in both English and Cantonese, ensuring smooth communication. We will match each student with the most suitable tutor, allowing them to feel comfortable and engaged during the learning process!

The topics we cover include:

All mathematics topics learned in school
Math problems include basic arithmetic, algebra, geometry, and simple statistics

Peer2Peer hopes to help mentees understand their world, while also developing the skills to pose questions, plan investigations, and perform experiments to communicate results. Whether it is physics, chemistry or biology, or general science (GS), we focus on explaining concepts and helping our mentees understand their material at school. Mentors can also provide fundamental or advanced practices if a mentee wishes to receive them.

As the science curriculum in Hong Kong varies between schools, it is important to establish convenient and effective communication between mentors and mentees. According to the mentees’ own coursework, mentors will personalize learning materials that are the most suitable for them. While we don’t have a laboratory, we still do our best to help students visualize experiments and understand the scientific concepts behind them. However, if a mentee wanted to explore outside of their syllabus, our mentors would be happy to help as well.

Are you looking for CAS opportunities but haven’t had a chance to implement your project? Peer2Peer can support you! We are announce our “Student Mentor Drive Program/Project” to help students implement their projects this summer or during the upcoming academic year (weekends).

This is a unique opportunity to execute your own group project. You will gain personal growth and learning through project planning & design, allowing you to develop leadership skills, collaborate with like-minded individuals, and gain hands-on experience in project management. Mentors will receive certificates and accumulate at least 10 service hours upon sufficient participation, recognizing their commitment and contribution.

The “Student Mentor Drive Program/Project” initiative will:

Invite mentor (or groups) to submit innovative project proposals in areas such as Academics, Sports, and Performance Arts.
Proposed initiatives should utilize peer-to-peer mentoring methodologies, demonstrate clear educational or developmental value, and have the potential for a meaningful impact on mentees.
Student Mentor (or groups) will develop comprehensive proposals that include:
- Clear objectives and expected outcomes
- Target audience specifications
- Detailed program content and activities
- Implementation timeline with key milestones
- Defined team roles and responsibilities
- Budget requirements and resource allocation

Your programs and projects will also fulfill CAS (Creativity, Activity, Service) requirements in school, allowing you to gain experience while contributing to your communities. Proposals will go through a P2P review process, where the management team will evaluate the plans and select the most promising projects for implementation, along with funding, organize the Target audiences (young mentees), and logistical support.
