Enable "Personal Hotspot" on your iPad and connect via USB to your computer. Your MacBook should automatically detect/configure the internet connection. That's how it works with my iPhone 5 and my MacBook Pro anyway. Open the "Network" pane of System Preferences for more information. Perhaps manually adding the iPad USB interface manually?
