Matches
Matches between a student and tutor are made based on the following considerations:
- Schedule and availability
- Compatibility
- Interests, experience, and skills
- Requests
Student and Tutor Responsibilities:
- Student and tutor are expected to be on time and notify the other in the event of cancellation
- Student and tutor are expected to follow TLE’s Digital Code of Conduct
- The student is responsible for doing his/her agreed upon homework and/or assignments.
- The tutor is asked to give the assistance and offer resources as needed
Match Reassignment
Although this is uncommon, things don’t always work out. Both a tutor or student can recommend to end a match and be reassigned for any reason. As well, if the student or tutor is not fulfilling his/her responsibilities the match can be ended.
Common grounds for Match Reassignment/Termination:
Missed Appointments: The student or tutor has missed 2 or more appointments without a reasonable explanation or notice.
Possible Manipulation: The student or tutor is purposefully trying to manipulate you in some way. Discuss this with an administrator and together you will determine if a change is needed.
Inappropriate Behavior: The student or tutor acts in an inappropriate fashion that makes you feel uncomfortable. Bring this issue to an administrator or TLE staff member immediately.
Student Responsibilities: The student repeatedly expects you to do his/her homework and/or assignments.
Tutor Responsibilities: The tutor is unable to give the assistance needed.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
At no time can a student or tutor request any exchange of fees for tutoring services. This is an immediate ground for termination of the match and possible disaffiliation from The Learning Exchange.
