. Introduction. Nowadays, specialists of different scientific directions note the growing trend in the deterioration of physical and mental health of younger generation, largely resulting from the health cost of education. In this regard, it is important to develop the institution of tutoring as a pedagogical innovation, which will ensure the formation of a healthy, active, purposeful and responsible personality, who can successfully live in a rapidly changing world.The aim of the article was to identify the factors, which have to be taken into consideration, when organising and implementing master's education in the direction "Health-Preserving Tutor".Methodology and research methods. Leading methodological approaches, when studying future tutors' readiness for health-preserving activities, were anthropological, personality-oriented and environmental. The authors designed the programme of complex diagnostics "Harmony", which included the following methodologies: evaluation of satisfaction with physical condition (according to Giesener Beschwerdebogen, GBB); self-evaluation of mental state (H. J. Eysenck); "Value orientations" (M. Rokich); the Social Readjustment Rating Scale (T. Holmes, R. Rage); questionnaires "Need for tension in terms of health" (Z. I. Tyumaseva, A. A. Tsygankov, I. L. Orekhova) and "The level of development of recreational activity" (G. V. Valeeva, V. S. Misharina).Results and scientific novelty. The structure and the concepts of "tutoring" and "tutoring support in health-preserving" were specified. The components of the tutors' readiness for health-preserving activity were revealed: psycho-emotional, psycho-physical, cognitive and value-motivational. In the course of pedagogical experiment, the factors of risks and sustainability, which influence the formation of tutors' readiness for health-preserving activity, were identified. A diagnostic program was developed to identify the factors.Practical significance. The developed diagnostic tool can be employed when assessing the level of readiness formation for health-preserving activity among students and tutors. The materials of the research can be useful to specialists, who are engaged in vocational training of tutors, as well as to teachers, heads of educational organisations and undergraduates of pedagogical higher education institutions.
