• Be able to deliver quality one to one tuition in family homes, schools or designated areas.
• Be able to develop lesson plans to deliver predetermined plans and objectives.

• Be willing to keep records of students' progress and able to give us weekly updates of your records.

• You need to provide us with the contact details of at least two references we can get in touch with.

What We Offer

Yet you have the backing of a reputable agency that does not simply make introductions but can offer guidance on the curriculum, course materials, exam papers, and free tutorials to ensure you are fully prepared.
• All Tutor Doctor clients have been visited and vetted by an educational consultant, so you know tutoring is safe, and that the student and family are fully committed. We handle all contracts, so you are given long-term assignments, and are paid monthly and on time.
