Abstract: This classroom action research aimed to improve the learning engagement of sixth grade students at UPTD SDN Banyuajuh 3 through the implementation of a peer tutoring method. The study used the Kemmis and McTaggart model, conducted in two cycles, each consisting of planning, action, observation, and reflection. The subjects were 30 sixth grade student (14 boys and 16 girls). Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation, then analyzed descriptively using percentages. The results showed that student engagement increased from 36,7% (low category) in the pre cycle to 63,3% (moderate category) in cycle I, and further increase to 86,7% (high category) in cycle II, exceeding the success indicator of 75%. The findings indicate that peer tutoring is effective in transforming passive students, who previously played and chatted with their deskmates, into active participants once they were guided by higher achieving peers in small groups. The study concludes that peer tutoring, supported by intensive tutor training and character based group rotation, is an effective strategy to foster active learning among elementary school students.
