Why did you want to be a Peer Guide leader?: One of my major passions is meeting and helping people. Undertaking the role as a Peer Guide Leader allows me to deal with various people daily and face different situations. This has really increased my confidence and understanding of the world around me.

How can having a Peer Guide help a first year student?: It will help assist a smooth transition into the University life, as we help provide students with the skills and information needed to settle in, and signpost them to the most important things to know, especially when it comes to specific academic problems.
