− | 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.[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tutor] | + | A private tutor is a [[private]] instructor who teaches a specific educational subject or [[skill]] to an individual student or small [[group]] of students.
