Working and studying in a university ESL center presents extra freelance opportunities and their attending ethical issues. With a BS in magazine journalism, I love editing and coaching people's writing and the extra cash. But as I've found out, different cultures have different expectations about what a tutor or writing coach should do and what cheating is.
I suggest seeking guidelines from your own institution and creating a document to explain to your student from the beginning what type of work you as a tutor or writing coach are not able to do. I'll try to find some guidelines to post here.
