In British, Australian, New Zealand, Italian, and some Canadian universities, a tutor is often but not always a postgraduate student or a lecturer assigned to conduct a seminar for undergraduate students, often known as a tutorial. The equivalent of this kind of "tutor" in the United States of America (U.S.) and the rest of Canada is known as a teaching assistant.

In the United States, the term tutor is generally associated with one who gives professional instruction in a given topic or field.

C.R.T. "The Confusion Response Technique"
C.R.T. which stands for "Confusion Response Technique" is a simple, yet effective tool for tutors to help their students, not only locate the information that is confusing the student in math texts and materials, but also pinpoint the "cause" of the confusion. This is important for two reasons: Firstly, C.R.T. helps students reduce self-doubt and regain confidence and self esteem by making them aware of the factors "causing" their confusion. Secondly, C.R.T. helps the student to locate his own confusion and "self-correct", allowing the student to become a more meta-cognitive and independent thinker and learner.

CRT could mean credit (credit points) or "to give or award an educational credit to"?
