The Role of the Tutor in a College of Further Education: A Comparison of Skills Used by Personal Tutors and by Student Counsellors When Working with Students in Distress.
Hart, Nicola
British Journal of Guidance and Counselling, v24 n1 p83-96 Feb 1996
Compares the personal counseling role of the college tutor with the work of the trained student counselor. Found that a lot of role confusion exists, that untrained tutors use a smaller range of skills than counselors, and that they tend more toward advice giving and directive techniques. They feel unprepared and unsupported in their counseling role. (KW)
