Let's break down
the fundamentals
What do we do?
Peertivity trains students to become Servant Leaders (SLs) through the AIM model—Appreciate, Investigate, Motivate—supporting their peers in developing real-world skills, motivation, and confidence. Sessions are led on campus by students, for students, with guidance from a trained liaison and support from our central team. It’s peer-powered growth with a purpose.
How do we do that?
We use the AIM cycle—Appreciate, Investigate, Motivate—to train Peer Educators in the art of questioning, scaffolding, and leading with empathy. Grounded in over 20 years of research and field-tested in public schools, AIM equips students to guide their peers with strategies rooted in Servant Leadership, positive youth development, and evidence-based learning science.
What is Servant Leadership?
Servant Leadership is the practice of helping others grow by leading with empathy, responsibility, and trust. At Peertivity, students trained as Servant Leaders (SLs) learn to support their peers not through authority, but through listening, questioning, and shared purpose. These are coachable, lifelong skills that empower young people to guide others while developing their own voice and confidence.
Personalized Mentorship: What to Expect
Goal-Driven Session Design
✅
✅
✅
Every session is structured around the AIM model: Appreciate, Investigate, Motivate.
Peer Educators learn how to build trust, lead inquiry, and inspire real progress—whether they’re helping with organization, self-confidence, or peer relationships.
Sessions are flexible, student-led, and guided by real-world goals set collaboratively at each campus.
Peer Educator Matching
✅
✅
✅
We train and select peer educators based on their empathy, leadership potential, and alignment with Peertivity’s core values.
Each student leader is prepared to support peers in ways that reflect the needs of their own campus culture.
All Peer Educators complete AIM-based workshops, undergo school-approved vetting, and receive ongoing guidance from our team and their campus liaison.
1:1 Peer Connections That Work
✅
✅
✅
Peertivity creates meaningful, consistent 1:1 or small group moments where students feel seen, heard, and supported.
Our approach is grounded in Servant Leadership and informed by years of implementation across Texas public schools.
We provide practical tools, emotional scaffolding, and a proven process to help students thrive—on their terms, at their pace.
