Rude tot has to be made to be taught (7)

I believe the answer is:

tutored

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'to be taught' is the definition.
(synonyms)

'rude tot has to be' is the wordplay.
'rude tot' anagrams to 'TUTORED'.
However, I am not clear how this is indicated.

'made' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for tutored that I've seen before include "Trained" , "Rude tot (anag.)" , "Coached" , "Disciplined" , "Instructed" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
