That's not the alternative, either, because nobody will pay for one adult teacher per student. The alternative is no tutoring at all.

One kid teaching another is nice occasional exercise.
It is absolutely not solution to lack of teachers. Even teacher having 15 bad students the same time is better then one kid trying to be tutor.
It is also quite unfair expectation to be placed on a kid.
The tutors is not improving own recall. The tutor is dealing with social problem outside of tutors control or abilities. And no, good student kid wont be able to individualize teaching better then adult teacher. The good student kid will struggle with the whole motivational thing much much more.
