Tutor Doctor believes there’s no such thing as a one-size-fits-all education. Since launching in 2000 in Canada, the brand has grown into a global education leader—now spanning five continents and more than 300 territories worldwide.

In the UK, Tutor Doctor launched in 2009 and has since expanded to 75+ territories, helping thousands of students reach their potential while building trusted partnerships with schools, local authorities, and families.

At Tutor Doctor, education is personal. Every learner begins with a free consultation to uncover their goals, challenges, and learning style. Students are then matched with tutors whose expertise and personality are the right fit. Whether sessions take place in-home or online, each plan builds confidence, closes knowledge gaps, and helps students rediscover the joy of learning.

A Proven Business with Purpose

Tutor Doctor’s franchise model is as personalised and dynamic as its tuition—combining purpose with profitability. Franchisees run their businesses from home, keeping overheads low with no inventory to hold, while scaling at their own pace. Many come from corporate or entrepreneurial backgrounds and thrive with the guidance of an experienced global support team.

Franchisees operate across two complementary lines of business, offering both social impact and financial opportunity:

Private clients (B2C): Delivering tailored tutoring to families seeking high-quality academic support.

Schools & local authority partnerships (B2B): Through the Schools Delivery Programme, franchisees work with schools to reach disadvantaged or hard-to-access learners.

This dual model creates multiple recurring revenue streams while expanding community impact—a structure that truly balances purpose and profit.

Strong Results, Strong Reputation

Pilot franchisees under the Schools Delivery Programme each surpassed £1 million in turnover.

The UK network achieved a 114% uplift in revenue year-on-year.

Around two-thirds of all UK tutoring now comes through schools and local authorities.
Winner of the BFA Franchisor Trailblazer of the Year 2024 and shortlisted at the National Tutoring Awards.

Comprehensive Training & Ongoing Support

Tutor Doctor’s support begins before launch and continues for the life of your business:
8 weeks of guided pre-training plus 5 days in-person at Head Office in Canada.

Dedicated business coach from day one.

Continuous access to experts in marketing, operations, technology, and recruitment.

Peer Performance Groups, mentorship programmes, and regional meetings that build
collaboration and accountability.

Join a Brand That Makes a Difference

Franchisees come from diverse professional backgrounds, often with no prior education experience. What they share is a passion for helping others and the drive to run a purpose-led, profitable business. Tutor Doctor’s proven model, low-overhead structure, and home-based setup allow owners to grow at their own pace while maintaining exceptional financial and personal fulfilment.

With over 25 years of proven success, Tutor Doctor offers a low-risk, high-reward model that empowers you to run a meaningful, profitable business. It’s where entrepreneurs change lives—and build lasting success along the way.

Testimonials:

“The Schools Delivery Programme has been revolutionary for the network – presenting the opportunity for business owners to achieve turnovers in excess of a million pounds. This is very much the current reality and is certainly a realistic goal for franchisees.” — Rob Kerrison, Tutor Doctor Franchise Owner, Cambridge

“I spoke with other franchisees and they seemed to have one thing in common – the passion for education. They all wanted to have an impact on the formative years of a persons’ life, and I knew that I had to be part of it.” — Piyush Gupta, Tutor Doctor Franchise Owner, Peterborough
