Contract cheating behaviour includes:

Paying a private individual/company to provide you with “model” answers for an assignment that you minimally edit before submission
Buying, selling, or swapping completed assignments through “sharing” websites or social media platforms like Facebook or WeChat

Closely associated with contract cheating and prohibited by the SFU Academic Integrity Policy are the following:

Uploading the instructor’s teaching materials (e.g. course outlines, lecture slides, assignment questions, etc.) to note sharing websites
Sharing the instructor’s teaching materials with private tutoring companies
Booking University space (e.g. study rooms) on behalf of private tutoring companies who illegally use the University’s teaching materials to provide paid services for students
Providing private tutoring companies your SFU username and password so that they can access teaching materials in Canvas

An ethical tutor will focus on teaching you concepts so that you are able to understand the material and complete your assignments on your own. There are legitimate services available for free at the University. Speak to your instructor or the Student Learning Commons if you need help.
