Abstract:

Peer group mentoring is a learning process that helps the students get more advice from the subject experts. Peer group mentoring is a critical component of academic achievement enhancement because it promotes collaborative learning and offers vital academic and emotional support. In this study, peer mentoring on undergraduate and postgraduate students is examined, which emphasizes the positive effects of relationships between more experienced and less experienced students on retention, motivation, problem solving ability, and the move from traditional educational structure to modern knowledge. As a result of peer group mentoring increasing engagement and participation of students in their student communities, academic performance both improved. Peer group mentoring mentors provide mentees with practical advice and efficient study techniques based on their common experiences, all the while fostering critical thinking and self-efficacy. In order to fully understand the potential benefits of peer mentorship for underprivileged students in particular, this paper calls for additional research on the topic.
