An interesting article was published by Franks & Richardson (Nature, 2006) on the subject of ant tutoring. A technique knows as 'tandem-running' is used by some ants where a 'tutor ant' teaches its pupil where to find food. The 'tutor ant' slows down or speeds up depending on the needs of its student.
I, Tony - short for (Ant)hony, decided the name 'TutorAnt' captured my love for nature and tutoring and on the 10th November 2014 the name was registered.
