cant get post to work from exisitng table

I cant get post to work and create a new row. I copy a table from an existing table with new fields and this works if i use put (overwrites)but I dont want put as i need a new row.

    //controller  
      if ($this->request->is('post')) { //doesnt work
               
                  $tutoredit = array('TutorEdit' => $this->request->data['Tutor']);
               $tutoredit['TutorEdit']['tutor_id']=2;
              
                   if ($this->TutorEdit->save($tutoredit)) {
         ////////
   
    ///view
   
     echo $this->Form->create('Tutor', array('type' => 'post'));
                     
                        echo $this->Form->input('id', $formHorizontalHtmlOptions);
                        echo $this->Form->input('first_name', $formHorizontalHtmlOptions);
                        echo $this->Form->input('last_name', $formHorizontalHtmlOptions);
                        echo $this->Form->input('email', $formHorizontalHtmlOptions);
                        echo $this->Form->input('mobile', $formHorizontalHtmlOptions);
                        echo $this->Form->input('home_phone', $formHorizontalHtmlOptions);
                        echo $this->Form->input('work_phone', $formHorizontalHtmlOptions);
                        echo $this->Form->input('gender', array_merge($formHorizontalHtmlOptions, array('type' => 'select', 'options' => $gender)));
                        echo $this->Form->end('Save Edit Request');
