Trinity College Dublin, The University of Dublin
• Your Tutor is not a teaching assistant or a seminar leader
• Your Tutor is an academic staff member who looks after you, not your grades
• They can provide personal and academic advice
• They will advocate on your behalf to College should anything happen in your life which may affect your academic performance
• However, they can only do this if they KNOW you are struggling in some way so it is important to let them know if you are going through a hard time or if something unexpected has happened
• Your relationship with your Tutor is entirely confidential, and they can provide a listening ear as well as advice on options
