Great experience

I had an extremely disappointing experience working with Tutor doctor. Despite fulfilling my responsibilities as a tutor, I was never paid for my work. I reached out multiple times to address the issue, but my concerns were either ignored or met with unhelpful responses.

It’s unacceptable for a company to take advantage of its employees, especially when they rely on timely payments. If you’re considering working with this company, I strongly urge you to be cautious. A business that refuses to pay its workers is not one worth trusting.

Raveena Patel took our money, but we didn't get the help that we needed. She wouldn't respond to repeated texts that we wanted our money back for unused sessions. My daughter's tutor Shelby did the math for her so my daughter didn't learn how to do them on her own. I had told her my daughter is more apt to learn in person, but she said the only tutor they had was online. It's scammy.

£49.50 an hour for tutoring absolutely astronomical costing for tutoring. Promised the earth and all company are bothered about is payments not how my child is progressing. The tutors are amazing but the cost is unbelievable, and taking advantage of families trying to support their children to progress. You should be ashamed at these prices you are charging

I am a science tutor, and was contacted by Tutor Doctor in the Uk. I guess they spotted that my charge rate of 27 pounds per hour was nice and low, allowing them to slap on a big mark up. I have done over 50 hours of tutoring during this year via Tutor Doctor for students who are out of school (retaking A levels, etc).They offered a rate of 25 pounds per hr, which seemed reasonable, given I was able to do some tutoring during school hours. Tutors are required to enter "reports" on each tutorial. Early on I was naive enough to think they required a meaningful report, so spent significant extra time writing this, though after a while I realised that my "manager" had no interest in the content of the report. Then I was required to enter the report on a user-unfriendly website. Overall, this meant a significant extra amount of time was required, so the actual hourly pay was significantly less than 25 pounds.
I offered one parent the option to pay me the 25 pounds direct. She said it sounded great but then said, enigmatically, "I have to carry on with Tutor Doctor". I now discover from this Trustpilot thread why she felt she needed to stay with Tutor Doctor: they persuade students and parents to fork out nearly 3000 pounds, up front, for 45 hours of tuition to Tutor Doctor, but the tutor gets less than 25 pounds per hour: a 140 per cent profit for doing precious little to benefit students. Such demands for massive upfront payments with no guarantee of quality tuition are a disgrace. Students and their families would be much better off using legitimate tutor agencies, who don't demand such payments.

Joni is terrible to work with. She is condescending and rude. Tutor doctor pays late, they do not pay in full, they have hidden terms and conditions that they do not communicate and you do not agree to but then they enforce and deduct from your pay. They are unprofessional and they are unreliable. They pay you a 1/4 of what the parent pays for the session.

Being contacted from a tutor page
After that turn up to be an agency
Late payment trying to use others skills to make money

Absolutely not recommended as work or as tutor for children
Hire a tutor directly

I have been using Tutor Doctor for many years both professionally and personally. In all this time their commitment to the learner and their outcomes has never faltered. Their flexibility in finding the right fit for the child has always been appreciated.

Waste of money. I purchased the 42hours for my daughter but no benefit at all.

Failed to return calls as promised twice also claimed we weren't in their area when we clearly were, shame as use to have a good reputation locally.

Owner of Longmont, CO franchise is transphobic and believes that trans people suffer from a "psychological disorder." He is not a safe person to bring into your home if you or your children are LGBTQ+. I can provide receipts of his bigoted words.

Our experience with Tutor Doctor couldn’t have been better. They were easy to work with, matched us to an amazing tutor, and made everything my easy. Highly recommend!

Tutor Dr. Only finds inexperienced and poor English speaking hired help.
What a joke this place is.

We’ve used Tutor Doctor Crewe a few times now and always found them to be communicative, helpful and pretty spot on when matching my children with Tutors.
I really like the report feedback after each session, which as a parent keeps me informed and in the know about my child’s progress.

The tutors were good but not the payment plan. This is a notice to parents not to get sucked into paying in advance for multiple hours if there is a chance your child will not need them. Not only will you not receive a refund, you won't even get a response to your queries. The franchise in my area was very responsive when I wanted to sign up, but failed to respond to multiple requests when I asked about a refund for unused hours.

This is a quick review about West Berkshire, Reading, North Surrey brand owned by Mark Butler. As a tutor it had been an ambiguous experience. I was asked to commit to a student for a full-term whether I wanted to tutor the student or not. The director Mr Butler who has no Educational background (he is a brewer) should not ask freelancing professionals to commit to anything. A director should be qualified well enough to direct a tutor doctor branch. I work for an agency now where everyone has serious Educational background. Also these directors who just buy a franchise have more than one businesses. Easy to look it up at companies house website. The above director has 9 businesses. How can one person focus on that many businesses? Must be a juggler. Well, that explains the quality of some tutoring services. My advice is to find an agency or agencies whose owners are teaching professionals. They pay more too.

Tutor doctor in Carlsbad ca with Julie Gibbs is the has the worst management and payment plan. Super expensive Save your self the trouble and look for a more professional service.

Tutor Doctor tutors aren't that bad. I just had a tutor who barely ever had time to tutor my child. On top of that I paid for classes in advance, now that the year 2023 is close to an end, I haven't received any feedback regarding my refund. They've been ignoring me for the past month now. I would strongly recommend that parents use other tutoring services that are less likely to scam you of your money like Tutor Doctor did to me, especially if you're in South Africa.

Great experience with the Richmond, BC location. Started with a personal meeting to ascertain our needs & fit for a tutor. Our son was frustrated with the quality of teaching in Math 11 pre-calc, lack of detailed explanations from the teacher, lack of quality time when he would go in for extra help, etc. Our tutor from Tutor Doctor has not only eliminated the classroom frustration by being able to explain concepts in different ways, but have seen a big improvement in marks.

I'm not really sure where these positive reviews came from.

If you look at Consumer Affairs, a lot of people feel they were ripped off.

It's very hard to get in touch with the tutors. If your child needs tutoring and the tutor doesn't show up, that is a big problem.

I would not pay anything upfront with these people because it's apparently hard to get time to speak with anyone - especially after they have your money.
