Disclaimer and Guidelines for Current RIT Tutors and Supervisors:
- This pay scale was designed for tutors working in the Bates Study Center for the Academic Support Center's Math Lab. We recommend that other RIT departments follow this pay scale, although it is not required.
- The new system will NOT result in a reduction of pay for students currently hired at RIT as tutors.
- Students with previous RIT tutoring experience may be entered into the new wage scale system at either the apprentice or associate levels.
- Decision of the tutor’s current wage scale will be determined by the tutor's immediate supervisor.
- To be entered into the Apprentice level, the tutor must have previous training equivalent to 5 hours of formal tutor training, and 25 hours of supervised tutoring experience.
- To be entered into the Associate level, the tutor must have previous training equivalent to 10 hours of formal tutor training, and 50 hours of supervised tutoring experience.
