Tutor Doctor understands firsthand that access to tailored, one-on-one teaching and instruction is one of the most important components of student success. A student also requires the right tutor for their specific academic goals and challenges, personality, and learning style.
The tutors we work with teach your child more than just a subject; they teach them how to overcome all educational obstacles. That is why they must go through a rigorous selection process to join our tutoring team!
01
We hire on the basis of ability. To ensure tutors have the skills and experience to serve Tutor Doctor students with excellence, we use a five-phase recruitment process that includes face-to-face interviews, safety and background checks, and calling on references.
02
We hire people based on their humanity. A tutor is more than just talent. We place a high value on personability. To put it another way, we only hire tutors who we would hire for our own children.
03
We provide tutors with the tools they need to succeed. We constantly equip and assess tutors as they grow by providing ongoing professional development, support, stringent quality controls, and intentional customer feedback tracking. If someone does not meet our high standards, we will no longer work with them.
Having highly qualified, background-checked tutors is the lowest bar an educational company should meet. Beyond the basics, we meticulously match local professionals according to things like personality, interests, and related experience. In other words, we pick tutors who students look forward to seeing and spending time with every week. Then, we provide a summary report after each session so you can see how things are going, and we can make sure we have the right fit.
Our tutors are highly qualified professionals with strong backgrounds in their subject areas. Many hold advanced degrees, teaching credentials, or certifications in education, and all have a passion for helping students succeed.
We have a thorough selection process that includes an application, interview, background check, and subject-specific assessments. This ensures that each tutor is not only knowledgeable in their field but also skilled in communicating concepts clearly and effectively.
We handle the matching process for you to ensure you’re paired with the best tutor for your needs. After an initial consultation, where we discuss your academic goals, learning style, and any specific challenges, our team carefully selects a tutor who is the best fit. This personalized matching approach ensures you have a productive, supportive learning experience from the start. If you ever feel you need a different approach, we’re happy to make adjustments to find the right match.
