CODE OF CONDUCT for tutors
- I understand that my role as a tutor is to encourage and enable learners to achieve their potential as independent learners through acknowledgement, encouragement, understanding and personalised attention.
- I will be careful to avoid creating any unhealthy dependencies by suggesting a need for tutoring where no such need exists; reporting in a manner that explicitly or implicitly suggests a need for further on-going tutoring or engaging in any practice that undermines the independent learning of students.
- I will not engage in any form of plagiarism, such as completing students’ assignments for them.
- I will provide honest, positive and constructive feedback to my students.
- I am committed to identifying any particular challenges or difficulties my students might have with their learning and to assisting them in overcoming those barriers.
- I will report any concerns I have about students’ social, emotional and behavioural difficulties that are beyond my competency to address.
- I will identify and report to the organisation any special educational needs that are beyond my experience or ability to resolve.
- I understand that my relationship to my students is professional and not personal and that I have a duty of care towards them.
- I will show respect for my students’ cultural background, personal dignity and values.
- I will maintain accurate records of tutoring sessions as required.
- I will not seek to provide educational services to students or company partners I have been introduced to by the company.
