Peer Tutoring was established by TTUHSC School of Medicine Class of 2000 students in order to provide medical students with a venue of displaying and distributing useful study aids. As a consequence of the program and its associated website, students in the medical school can benefit from the efforts of their current peers as well as from students from years past.

Peer Tutoring also functions increasingly as an organizational body for student-to-student tutorials in the basic science years. Peer Tutoring's tutorials and seminars aid students in the understanding of difficult subject areas and serve as helpful reviews for the USMLE.
