What does TUTEE mean in Scrabble?
noun
A person who receives instruction from a tutor.
The word tutee names the receiving half of a tutoring relationship, just as employee names the person who works for an employer. Colleges and coaching programs use the term to keep records straight when one tutor works with several tutees across a term. Outside of education administration, the word is rare, since most people simply say student or pupil instead. Tutee still fills a useful gap, though, whenever a writer needs to distinguish clearly between the person teaching and the person being taught.
