- You are not expected to provide the quality of instruction that a T.A. can, but it is assumed that you know the material well enough so that the student benefits from your efforts.
- It is the student's responsibility to contact the tutor. The tutee is given the tutor's name and email address. Please let the tutoring coordinators know if no one has contacted you within a week.
- Students usually tutor for 2 hours a week per tutee.
- It is expected that you will tutor students one-on-one. If you help two or more students during the same hour, that time will only count as one hour.
- Once you are assigned to help a student, please make an effort to work out a regular schedule quickly. This will enable you to fulfill your commitments despite MIT's demanding routine.
- Graduate students serving as RAs and TAs may not tutor through this program without the permission of their supervisors. In no case should a TA tutor students through this program in the subject in which he or she is TAing. Due to INS regulations, it is impossible for us to pay any foreign graduate students who are working as TAs or RAs.
- You will be paid for tutoring ONLY the students that you are assigned to through the tutor/tutee matching program.
- The best way to contact the tutoring coordinators is by e-mail at hkn-tutoring@mit.edu. Your comments, suggestions, and complaints are welcome.
