13. The four parts of a Tutor’s Goals Audience---name of the tutee, Performance or behavior---an action verb written in future tense indicating that the tutor prepared for the session, Condition ---specifying the exact content to be covered, Degree---may be qualitative or quantitative.

15. Identification of the Task The instructional objective can help clarify expectations for the tutorial, guide the content covered in the session, and organize the tutorial. The act of writing the instructional objective will help the tutor clarify to themselves the explicit outcomes to expect of the tutee. A benefit of working one-on-one in a tutorial setting is that the instructional objective can be tailored for the individual and their specific academic need rather than a universal approach to academic work.
