Very expensive. Moreover, the teacher can only work according to a manual, doesn’t want to adjust to child’s needs. All children are different and it’s quite unprofessional to teach them all the same... See more

The owner Joel Vance made promises he didn't keep. Hired them to help my son in Algebra 2 and he guaranteed that he be ready for his test and pass it. My son failed! He promises weekly progress reports and never recieved even 1! When I spoke with him about these problems, he made excuses and refused to do anything to make the situation right. Paid $3,000 for nothing! He lied about everything! Don't trust him. Get another company, this 1 is a scam.

Kiddo was struggling with math

Kiddo was struggling with math. We called tutor Dr. Raquel was so kind in her evaluation of my child and she placed her with a to notch tutor. Valeria, the tutor, is a college student with a genuine interest in helping my student. The confidence tutor Dr has given my child for math has made such a difference on n our lives. We went from struggling to A’s and being very prpepared to take the STAAR.

Great experience with the agent who helped place our daughter with her tutor. My daughter is getting the help she needed and is excelling in her subjects. Would recommend Tutor Doctor for any child that may need help with their schoolwork.

I have recommended Tutor Doctor already and will continue to do so based on our experience. The level of professionalism is exceptional, surpassed only by the desire to ensure that the service given meets the needs of the student.
They have gone out of their way to find the right tutor for my daughter despite the first one not quite working out and I could not have asked for more.

Our tutor Valerie is excellent

Our tutor Valerie is reliable, friendly and professional she has excellent communication skills in terms of arranging timings and teaching my daughter Jessica. Jessica's confidence has grown immensely in nearly 2 months of having a tutor. Which I feel is the most important thing for a 7 year old. I also receive feedback sheets from Tutor Doctor which are very useful in reminding me what we have covered and what I can do to support Jessica at home. I would definitely recommend this company.

Thank You Tutor Doctor

From the moment David discussed my daughter's needs with her, Tutor Doctor have been exceptional. The Economics tutor they matched my daughter with has been absolutely first rate, transforming her learning and enjoyment of that subject to the point where she wants to study it at university! Given that her 'A' level road has been bumpy, to say the least, this is no mean feat! And the undoubted star of the show through all of it has been Victoria, whose genuine care and thoughtful attention to detail has really made a difference to my daughter's university prospects and wellbeing. Thank you!
