Other than the fact that one is free, and the other is not.

That is, why do so many students opt to receive tutoring when office hours are available?

Yes, I realize that some professors just suck at explaining/teaching, thus a tutor might be better, or a student cannot find time to make it to office hours due to work or what not, but even taking these situations into account, I believe most students will not take advantage of office hours. Why?
