I understand that I must be prepared for the tutoring session by making available my textbooks, syllabi, tests, notes, assignments, and any other material that will help the tutor address my needs.

1 Purpose. I understand that tutorial services are supplementary to my classroom instruction and not a substitute for it and that my tutor will not teach material I missed by not attending class.

2 Commitment. I will attend my tutorial session at the agreed-upon times and If I am unable to attend, I will notify my tutor at least 24 hours in advance.

3 Concerns. If the tutorial service I receive is not satisfactory or beneficial to me, I agree to discuss the situation with the Tutor’s supervisor immediately.

4 Excellence. I agree to try any new learning strategies my tutor teaches me.

5 Quality. I agree to evaluate the quality of tutorial service as requested by the tutor’s supervisor.

6 Confidentiality. I agree to allow the tutor to discuss my progress with their supervisor. Outside of discussions with the supervisor, I understand that my tutor will keep details of my tutoring sessions confidential unless required by law.

7 Termination. I understand that the Tutor or ICNA Houston may terminate the tutor-student relationship at any time for any reason. I will respect Tutor’s or ICNA Houston’s right to terminate the relationship.

I understand that violating the following statements may result in termination of the tutoring agreement:

I will not send or post discriminatory, harassing, or threatening messages or images.

I will not copy, pirate, or download software and electronic files without permission.

I will not violate copyright law.
