What does a personal tutor do?

The core purpose of a personal tutor is to support taught students’ academic, personal and professional development through an ongoing personalised point of contact with the University. They also can refer students to the appropriate sources of academic or welfare and support services when necessary.
 
Personal tutors can advise students about support services outside of their school or department, including those delivered by the Student Support Centre such as student life, mentoring, money advice and support, international visa and welfare support, residential support and discipline in-campus accommodation and the Centre for Wellbeing which offers counselling, physical and mental health support.
