Could not even be bothered replying to my request for assistance for my son who has autism.
Reply from Tutor Doctor
Sorry Gary, for your circumstances, but we are not sure why you would expect a service provider to buy a lead to tell you that we have no-one available to help you in your area. Apologies, and best wishes, new management, TD.

My son can be a challenge to sit still and stay focused for the entire session. Caitlyn adapts to my son's needs. He has excelled with her! My son loves Caitlyn and enjoys doing school when she is here. Highly recommend Tutur Doctors. More...

This service has saved my teen from "falling between the cracks" of our education system. With so much uncertainty the past couple years, it's a relief we can depend on Tutor Doctor to help us fill the gaps and with Highschool just around the corner, we are confident in success with Tutor Doctor by our side.

I am very pleased to have Ida as my son's English tutor. She is very experienced, organized and patient with my son. When my son had a school project, Ida would adjust her schedule to accommodate an extra lesson for my son to make sure he can submit his project on time. Again, we are more than happy to have her be our tutor. She treats her students like her own kids. Hope we will have a long term relationship together. More...

My son’s tutor is Courtney Pagach. She is very professional and absolutely amazing to work with. My son is in Junior High. We were looking for a tutor for general or overall academic help to keep him on track with homework and assignments. I was impressed that during our very first conversation she understood exactly my son’s tutoring needs. Courtney has been great at helping keep my son on track. She signed into my son’s school online portal and also to gets updates from teachers. She keeps on top of what assignments are past due and what is coming up so he can plan and work toward those upcoming assignments. She really engages with my son and with me to figure out how best to help him progress academically. My son likes working with Courtney and finds the sessions with her to be productive. She communicates well and in a timely manner and is easy to work with. She also takes the time to coordinate with me separately to help my son which I very much appreciate. I think, because of her holistic approach to tutoring she is so effective. 😀 More...

I am so impressed with Tutor Doctor. My son is a Junior in high school and he has been with Tutor Doctor for 1 year. He began the journey with a low score on his Pre SAT’S of a 680 and to date he scored a 1410. The tutors are very professional and enthusiastic about the success of there clients. The tutors make u feel so comfortable and have so much patience. Thanks to Mazi, Sylvia and Arron for all they have done!! This is not the end of our journey with Tutor Doctor, we will continue to make my son as successful as we can. We are also going to have personal tutoring for my son, because we are forced to stay at home from this Pandemic. Can’t wait for more exciting moments with the Tutor Doctor Team. Thank!!!!

I’m seeing very negative reviews from the Vyn family regarding your very unethical business. You should do what reputable businesses do, and pay your tutors properly and refund outstanding debt to customers who have depended on your services. It’s never worth having negative reviews in a community like Ancaster. More...

Do yourself and your child(ren) a favour and stay clear of this company, especially if you are in the Hamilton, Ancaster, Cambridge area. We had a wonderful tutor, however the franchise owner stopped paying her for hours worked, and she couldn’t get in touch with him. Of course, we couldn’t continue to ask her to tutor for us and not be paid for doing so. In the meantime, the previous owner left and the new owner won’t return any phone calls or emails. We prepaid for almost 100 hours and have used half, however despite emails, no one is providing us a solution, yet alone our money back. Please look elsewhere and safe yourself the aggravation.

We have had a great experience with Tutor Doctor so far. Our child has been well matched with his tutor. She clearly puts in a lot of effort in creating lessons for him, and communication with her has been easy & consistent. He has responded well to her, and she responds in kind by designing lessons for him that pique his interests. More...

Past Tutoring session. Dissatisfied customer. Initial tutor was subpar and my child did not receive adequate tutoring. The tutor spent a number of sessions with my son before FINALLY realizing he was ill-equiped to help him. My son consistently failed quizzes and tests that the tutor prepared him to take. When I complained I received another tutor (no refund). The second tutor helped but no refund for poor service. Furthermore, nearly nine months later I received a bill for 4 tutoring sessions I had to have because of the four sessions that were wasted. There was a mistake on Tutor Doctor's part (ONCE AGAIN) and I had to pay. When I referenced the prior issue with a neglible tutor I was told that they secured another tutor but would not offer credits or a refund for those sessions. Horrible customer service and ZERO consideration for the parent or student. ALEX was insistent about receiving a final payment NINE months after service but did not insist on making sure my child had the best tutor to start his program with Tutor Doctor. More...

So I hired tutoring for my son in December with Tutor Doctor which was going considerably well with the exception of a change in tutor within a couple of months. My son's tutoring schedule was 1x a week with the exception of March break. Last session took place on March 12th, then the COVID-19 pandemic hit and in one way or another has affected us all. Tutor did not show up at my home for the next scheduled session on March 26th so I waited to hear of any updates and received none, no email, no phone call, nothing! I sent an email on April 3rd asking for an update as to how this situation is being handled. Only then, did I find out about the transition to an online tutoring platform. After explaining to Mike that online tutoring is not an option for my son who has attention issues and I don't want to continue paying over $50 an hour to have my son tutored online when I know it will not be effective and cannot bank the hours as my son is away with his father for the summer, he advised me if I break my contract there is a penalty of $150 which I did sign for in the contract. After alot of back and forth by email, he let me know he was unwilling to waive the $150 fee even under the pandemic circumstances. I paid the fee of $150 as I really had no other choice, however, am completely appalled at how this whole situation was handled. I for one, had to reach out to receive information regarding the tutoring and what was going on during the pandemic. Not once did I receive a phone call to discuss the situation. At the end of the day, I understand I broke this contract, however, under the circumstances of the pandemic, I feel like an exception could have been made for the $150. I would definitely not recommend this company. Very unprofessional!!! More...

My son Ethan has really benefited from one on one tuition in maths, giving him the essential extra confidence he needs for forthcoming exams. It allows him to discuss areas he is struggling with and get an in depth explanation not available in class. Getting the extra tuition has proven to him I am invested and believe in him and has also led to him taking extra revision sessions at school as he doesn't want to let me down either. It really has helped in so many ways and I'm confident it will show in his grades! Highly recommend! More...

At Tutor Doctor ACT, we love being a part of child's journey and helping them to achieve their goals. We strive to equip our students with the building blocks they can use to succeed in every aspect of their life.
Can you provide your services online or remotely? If so, please add details.
Yes, we offer live online tutoring either in conjunction with in-home tutoring or as an alternative where in-home is not possible. This is done through an online platform where our tutors are connected with their students via microphone and camera, and have the software to draw and type on a shared screen.
What changes have you made to keep your customers safe from Covid-19?
Our business has a COVID-Safe policy in place that ensures the safety of our tutors, their students and our community. This is achieved by social distancing, sanitising hands and all equipment, and avoiding any physical contact. In the event that a child or tutor is unwell, we can either reschedule the session, or move the session online.
