a1822 P. B. Shelley Triumph of Life in Posthumous Poems (1824) 261 The tutor and his pupil, whom Dominion Followed as tame as vulture in a chain.

a. In the Universities of Oxford, Cambridge, and Dublin: A graduate (most often the fellow of a college), to whom the special supervision of an undergraduate (called his pupil) is assigned. Subsequently also used in other British universities and other further education establishments. Also, in Cambridge and some other universities and colleges, a member of the teaching staff assigned responsibility for the general well-being of a student (cf. moral tutor n. at moral adj. Compounds 2). The word was first used of those who stood in a supervisory relation to undergraduate members of colleges or halls, not on the foundation, and were responsible to the hall or college for their pupils' payments (= creancers: cf. creancer n. 2) By Wykeham's Statutes for New Coll., Oxf., imitated at King's Coll., Camb., and Magdalen Coll., Oxf., each junior foundationer was assigned to the special charge of a senior called his informator. Both these offices appear to have been merged later in the tutor. Naturally the tutor looked after his pupils' studies also, and this came to be the main part of his duties, esp. at Oxford. Tutores are also found at Louvain in 1476 supervising the studies of the scholares (Rashdall Universities of Eur. (1895) II. 766).

1884 J. B. Mullinger Univ. Cambr. from 1535 396 The Cambridge system by which the expenditure of the student is supervised to a certain extent by the tutor was in operation as early as the sixteenth century.

1886 R. Willis & J. W. Clark Archit. Hist. Univ. Cambr. I. Introd. 91 In the [Latin] statutes of..Clare Hall [1551]..we meet for the first time at Cambridge with the term tutor, in the modern sense, namely, a fellow of the college who is to be responsible for his pupil's expenses, to explain to him what he has to do and to learn, and..is to be treated by him with filial obedience and respect.

1887 Q. Rev. Oct. 403 By the middle of the sixteenth century, the modern system of admitting students not on the foundation was fully established; and, as a natural result, the office of ‘tutor’ in the present meaning of the term then first appears.

1895 H. Rashdall Univ. Europe in Middle Ages II. 515 It seems probable that before the middle of the fifteenth century the teaching of Undergraduates..was mainly in the hands of Tutors in the Colleges, or Principals and their assistant Regents or non-graduate Lectors in the Halls. Note, The word used both at New College [c1400] and Magdalen [1479] is Informator. At Brasenose College [founded 1509] the word Tutor occurs for the first time, but only in reference to the Fellow who is to be responsible for a Commoner.

ΚΠ

1828 N. Webster Amer. Dict. Eng. Lang. (at cited word) Tutors are graduates selected by the governors or trustees, for the instruction of undergraduates... They are usually officers of the institution, who have a share, with the president and professors, in the government of the students.

c. private tutor (at the English Universities): A person engaged by students to assist them in their studies and preparation for the examinations, but not appointed or recognized by the University or College. Also, a person who makes it his business to prepare students for professional examinations apart from the universities, as an army tutor, a law tutor.

Shelley Triumph of Life in Posthumous Poems (1824) 261 The tutor and his pupil, whom Dominion Followed as tame as vulture in a chain. 4. a. In the Universities of Oxford, Cambridge, and Dublin: A graduate (most often the fellow of a college), to whom the special supervision of an undergraduate (called his pupil) is assigned. Subsequently also used in other British universities and other further education establishments. Also, in Cambridge and some other universities and colleges, a member of the teaching staff assigned responsibility for the general well-being of a student (cf. moral tutor n. at moral adj. Compounds 2). The word was first used of those who stood in a supervisory relation to undergraduate members of colleges or halls, not on the foundation, and were responsible to the hall or college for their pupils' payments (= creancers: cf. creancer n. 2) By Wykeham's Statutes for New Coll., Oxf., imitated at King's Coll., Camb., and Magdalen Coll., Oxf., each junior foundationer was assigned to the special charge of a senior called his informator. Both these offices appear to have been merged later in the tutor. Naturally the tutor looked after his pupils' studies also, and this came to be the main part of his duties, esp. at Oxford. Tutores are also found at Louvain in 1476 supervising the studies of the scholares (Rashdall Universities of Eur. (1895) II. 766).

Oxford (1881) 360 That all persons of whatever quality soever, untill they be admitted to the Degree of Bachelor of Arts..doe live under the care, tuition, and instruction of approved Tutors. 1696 E. Phillips New World of Words (new ed.) (at cited word) A Tutour in the University, is one that takes care to teach and instruct the Youth that are sent thither from inferior Schools; and the Scholar so taught, is call'd the Tutour's Pupil. 1864 J.

Cambr. 124/2 The Tutor..generally acts as agent for the College in all business transactions with its members... The Tutor himself does not necessarily lecture or teach. Private Tutors are called Coaches. 1884 J. B. Mullinger Univ. Cambr. from 1535 396 The Cambridge system by which the expenditure of the student is supervised to a certain extent by the tutor was in operation as early as the sixteenth century. 1886 R. Willis & J. W. Clark Archit. Hist. Univ. Cambr. I. Introd. 91 In the [Latin] statutes of..Clare Hall [1551]..we meet for the first time at Cambridge with the term tutor, in the modern sense, namely, a fellow of the college who is to be responsible for his pupil's expenses, to explain to him what he has to do and to learn, and..is to be treated by him with filial obedience and respect. 1887 Q. Rev. Oct. 403 By the middle of the sixteenth century, the modern system of admitting students not on the foundation was fully established; and, as a natural result, the office of ‘tutor’ in the present meaning of the term then first appears. 1895 H. Rashdall Univ. Europe in Middle Ages II. 515 It seems probable that before the middle of the fifteenth century the teaching of Undergraduates..was mainly in the hands of Tutors in the Colleges, or Principals and their assistant Regents or non-graduate Lectors in the Halls. Note, The word used both at New College [c1400] and Magdalen [1479] is Informator. At Brasenose College [founded 1509] the word Tutor occurs for the first time, but only in reference to the Fellow who is to be responsible for a Commoner. 1933 Times Lit. Suppl. 14 Dec. 889/3 He [sc. Sir John Sandys] was for long Senior Tutor of his college, a different thing in Cambridge from Oxford. 1980 L. P. Wilkinson Cent. of King's p. xiv Tutor, a Fellow responsible for a student's general welfare. Every student has one. b. In U.S. universities and colleges: ‘A teacher subordinate to a professor, usually appointed for a year or a term of years’ ( Cent. Dict.). ΚΠ 1828 N. Webster Amer. Dict. Eng. Lang. (at cited word) Tutors are graduates selected by the governors or trustees, for the instruction of undergraduates... They are usually officers of the institution, who have a share, with the president and professors, in the government of the students. c. private tutor (at the English Universities): A person engaged by students to assist them in their studies and preparation for the examinations, but not appointed or recognized by the University or College. Also, a person who makes it his business to prepare students for professional examinations apart from the universities, as an army tutor, a law tutor. ΚΠ 1827 E.
