Currently, the find command only allows us to find a student successfully if I find the student according to his or her full name saved in the contact book.

This can result in huge inconvenience for the tutor if say the tutor has large number of students and suppose a student just joined but the tutor forgot about the student's name. Or if the tutor only remembers that the student's name starts with B.

We made it clear here that we only support finding using any word (whole word) in their name. As such, the teacher does not remember the full name of the student.
