All listed words share the stressed vowel /ɪ/ and the ending /ʃən/, rhyming with the target 'tuition'. Beware of lookalikes like 'nation' (/ˈneɪʃən/) and 'station' (/ˈsteɪʃən/), which have a different vowel and do not rhyme. Also note that 'intuition' contains 'tuition' and does rhyme, but it is a separate word with a different prefix.
