This study aims to develop peer tutoring learning media based on Android applications to improve learners' independence. The alternative taken to achieve this goal is to apply peer tutoring learning media based on Android applications with emphasis learners learning independence especially life skills subjects. The development of this learning media is based on the facts and the thought that the learning process implemented tends to be very conventional and has not used an Android-based media. Tutors also have not optimized the potential of learners to share experiences in meeting learning needs. The research method used is research and development with the following steps: (1) a preliminary study to research and collect information and literature to develop of learning media, (2) compiling conceptual learning media to develop the prototypes and (3) conducting limited trials on the learning media. The results showed that the weakness of tutors used of instructional media was due of the limited availability of Android application-based media facilities owned by community learning centre (CLC), namely: (1). 47% tutors have never made an Android application-based learning media that fits to the learner's characteristics, (2) 80% tutors did not organized learners to use learning media, (3). 47% tutors did not use media that is suitable with the learning objectives. This condition led to the need of the development an Android application-based peer tutoring learning media as a learning model using Mobile Phone at the teaching and learning process. This method is a kind of learning strategy to improving the learning independence activities of learner's inequality education program at the CLC.
