From the multiple theories of experiential learning to discourse on learning styles and preferences, hands-on learning is well known as an important mode of engaging with new ideas and processes. This article runs with this notion by not just sharing interactive activities for training peer tutors but asking readers to participate in them. A narrative and reflective essay, it walks the audience through three exercises, step by step, and explores their impact in the contexts of the author’s tutor training program, her 2019 Canadian Writing Center Association Conference workshop, and the article itself. The piece asks whether there is room for more hands-on learning in all of these venues and calls on readers to reflect on their own experiences.
