"It is easier for a tutor to
command than to teach.”
John Locke
"A
private tutor is a private instructor who
teaches a specific educational
subject or skill to an individual
student or small group of
students. Such attention allows the student to improve
knowledge or skills far more rapidly than in a
classroom setting. Tutors are
often privately hired and paid by the student, the
student's family or an agency. Many are used for
remedial students or others needing special attention;
many provide more advanced material for exceptionally
capable and highly motivated students, or in the context
of
homeschooling. Tutelage
is the process of being under the guidance of a tutor.
Tutoring also occurs when one adult helps another adult
student to study a specific course or subject that
he/she is taking to get a better result. The adult can
also let the student work on his own, and can be there
if the student has any questions."
