recommend you a good tutor for you.

Some part of the underlined seems redundant, so I guess it should be corrected to
"recommend a good tutor to/for you", what do you think?

from my workbook
ex) I know a lot of English teachers. I can recommend you a good tutor for you.

It is a frequent mistake to see "recommend you" when " ecommend TO you" is meant."

The original is not simply redundant. It's wrong.

Your correction is right.

Thanks a lot!! "recommend a good tutor to you" definitely works, but does "recommend a good tutor for you" also work as I can't find it in a dictionary, but I can recalling hearing it?

"For" is the person who will benefit. "To" is the person you spoke to.

I recommended a good tutor to Mrs. Smith for her son Jimmy.
