I am doing some research on private tutoring and private schools and I
would like to hear from other schools about their experiences with this
phenomenon.
Specifically, I'd like to know:
Does your school have a policy about allowing private tutors to work with
students on campus?
Are private tutors screened (CORI check or other)?
Any sense (estimate/guess) of how many students have private tutors?
For what subject/reasons do your students seek private tutors?
Does you school have an academic support center/learning center? If so,
how many students are seen for tutoring "in house"?
Does your school have part time/full time tutors on the faculty?
Why might students seek private tutoring as opposed to using their
school's in house learning center?
I would really love to hear others' perspectives on the topic!
Many thanks,
Laura
