Acknowledgements usually go in the "Author Note" at the front of a 
document:

If there was someone listed as a "tutor" in the acknowledgements, and 
they were not someone appointed by the institution, or in some way 
accredited, I would ask the student exactly who they were, and what help 
they provided. The student might have to then undertake some 
supplementary assessment, to show what they, as opposed to their tutor, 
could do.
