tutee
One-on-one student
A tutee is someone who receives tutoring—the student in a tutor-tutee relationship.
The word is mainly used in educational contexts where the distinction matters: Each tutor was assigned three tutees.
It follows the pattern of other -ee words denoting the recipient of an action.
