Tutor (education)

In the British higher education system, a tutor is an officer of a college responsible for the pastoral (as opposed to academic) care of a number of students in cognate disciplines;[1] as against a Director of Studies in Cambridge who is responsible for the academic progress of a group of students in their own discipline,[2] with both Tutors and Directors of Studies answering to a Senior Tutor.

Not to be confused with Private tutor.
