The answer

A Muslim should be truthful and seek truthfulness, for truthfulness leads to righteousness and Paradise, and lying leads to wickedness and Hellfire, as stated in the Almighty's saying: (O you who have believed, fear Allah and be with the truthful) [At-/119], and in the Prophet’s (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) : (Hold fast to truthfulness, for truthfulness leads to righteousness, and righteousness leads to Paradise). Therefore, mentioning home tutoring as teaching in an educational institution is considered a lie. It is better to state the truth that the tutoring was private and took place at home. Whoever is truthful and fears Allah, Allah will provide for him from where he does not expect.
