Various errors in a header file regarding a single type

I'm getting a number of errors in my header file that i can't seem to solve. They all seem to be in the lines that use the class Tutor type.

Here's my code: 

#pragma once
#include "Pupil.h"
#include "Tutor.h"
class Class
{
	char name;
	int num;
	Pupil** pupils;
	int pupil_amount;
	Tutor* tutor;
public:
	Class();
	Class(char, int);
	~Class();
	bool Add_Pupil(Pupil* p);
	Pupil* Get_Pupil(int ind);
	int Get_Amount()const { return pupil_amount; }//get the amount of pupils
	int Get_Num()const { return num; }//get the name of the class
	Tutor* Get_Tutor()const { return tutor; } //return a pointer to the tutor
	void Add_Tutor(Tutor* t) { tutor = t; }//set a tutor recieved as a pointer
	char Get_Name()const { return name; }

};

These are the errors:

enter image description here

I solved it by declaring the class "Tutor" as a friend but then my professor told me not to use friend declarations. I tried moving the function to the .cpp file with no luck.

Is there any way i can solve this without using friend?

This error happens because compiler doesn't have declaration of 'Tutor' class when compiling your 'Class'. Check that 'Tutor.h' really contains declaration of the Tutor class.
