Tutoring
These tutoring services are looking for both teachers and
students. Homeschool families sometimes "outsource"
some instruction when a child's needs cannot be met within the
family circle. Hiring a tutor full time makes a family (and the
tutor) fall under the tutoring laws of a state's education code,
rather than under homeschooling laws.

all over the USA.
Changing
Teachers to Tutors/Mentors/Learning Facilitators
A new format for education needs to be adopted. Students, more
appropriately referred to as tutees, should be allowed to gain
the bulk of their education at home and visit with teachers,
more appropriately referred to as learning facilitators, tutors,
mentors, functioning as supportive specialist consultants, on
a one-on-one basis. By Merrill L. Tew.
