Resumen:
The academic tutoring program works as a pedagogical support activity that directly involves
students, tutors and teachers in order to promote the development of the disciplines, as well as
to facilitate the teaching and learning process. To report the experience of a tutor in Invertebrate
Zoology (I and II), based on the training practice with classes in the first and second periods of
the Bachelor's Degree in Biological Sciences at the Center for Education and Health (CES), at
the Universidade Federal de Campina Grande (UFCG). The experience report from the
methodological perspective is framed as a form of narrative, where the author narrates through
writing, an experience lived from subjective and objective observations, from the
problematization, interventions and techniques applied. The experience reported here took
place between November and April 2022, during the Invertebrate Zoology I (semester 2021.1)
and Invertebrate Zoology II (semester 2022.2) courses between March 2023 and June 2023.
Among the main reports, we discuss that the monitoring adds to my student education,
contributes to my engagement with other students and provides me with experiences that
encourage my academic education, promoting autonomy in the guidance of content to other
students, both academically and personally, also contributing to the improvement of the
Bachelor's Degree in Biological Sciences course. We consider that academic monitoring stands
out as a driver and strengthener of such a process, being another space for the collective
construction of knowledge, breaking with traditional teaching patterns (verticalization and
depository education).
