Rapport Building
In order to allow the students to improve in their studies, I feel that there's a need to have a bond between the tutor and the parents. Tutor may help to solve the child's queries and teach them more knowledge. However, there's a need for the tutor to update the parents on the status of the child's learning after each tuition session. Besides that, there's a need to advise on the parents' role in the child's learning journey.

There's also a need to maintain a good relationship with the students.
Tutors may be strict. However, being friends with the students may be an alternative option.
This would mean that the tutor is more approachable and there may not be a gap.
In other words, should the student face any difficulty, they will just ask the tutor without any hesitations.
