Is using TutorForHelp cheating?

Great question. Let's start out by asking a few more questions. Is using Wikipedia cheating? How about participating in a study group? Reading the textbook? What if you search for something on Google?

The truth is, any resource, online or otherwise, can be used for both learning and cheating. All of these resources are different and have only one thing in common: you, the student. So, before you use TutorForHelp or any other resource, ask yourself: If students' purpose was having someone else do their work, that would be viewed as a violation. But if people are using it as a tutor, then it's a tutor. It's the same online as it would be getting help at your neighbor’s house.

We believe that most students don't use TutorForHelp to cheat, and that we make a positive contribution by helping people learn. Here's what some students have said about the tutoring they've received on TutorForHelp:

So what's your Academic Honesty Policy?

We're thrilled that thousands upon thousands of students use TutorForHelp to get tutoring help. We believe that we've created a wonderful opportunity for students, tutors, experts, and even professors to come together and share knowledge. Our tutorial marketplace allows students to get tutorial help for less money because tutors can share a single tutorial effort with more than one student.

We are committed to creating and maintaining a culture of learning and integrity. Sometimes this is pretty easy: If a student asks someone to write a paper or take a final exam for them, it's obviously cheating. We explicitly warn against posting such questions, scan for them and remove any we become aware of. Sometimes it's more difficult: if a student asks for an explanation of a chemistry equation, how do we determine they have both permission and an honest intention to learn? Ultimately, we have put strong measures and language in place to discourage abuse, but it is up to you to act with honor and integrity.

Our tutors must act responsible too. If a student wants someone to take a final for them, no cheating occurs (beyond the dishonesty of their intent) until someone else comes along and says, "Sure, I'll take your final for you." Therefore, our policy covers both students and tutors as follows:

Our Academic Honesty Policy for Students

We know everyone tells you to take school seriously. But hey, we're going to tell you that too. So remember: it's wonderful to use TutorForHelp to get help learning how to solve tough homework questions, but it's absolutely not OK to cheat! What's in it for you? In the long run, your grades and where you went to school won't matter at all if you don't actually learn what you're supposed to be studying. We were students just like you, so trust us when we say that you'll only gain something out of going to school if you make an real education out of it.

If you are found cheating, you will be banned from ever using TutorForHelp again!

Our Academic Honesty Policy for Tutors

We want you to earn lots of money on TutorForHelp. Remember, though, that you have a duty to teach, not help students cheat. What's in it for you? First and foremost, if you are found helping other students cheat, you will be banned forever and will forfeit any remaining balance or claim to your tutorials!
