Linda joined the Tutor Doctor team in 2018 as a Customer Service Representative, and now is the person behind the hiring of our amazing tutors! Before joining Tutor Doctor, Linda worked with the Calgary Board of Education as an Educational Assistant, so she truly understands the needs of children and how vital extra support can be for them. As a mother of two children herself, she always asks herself, “Is this someone I would want tutoring my child?” in the hiring process. Her passion for helping families and children has always been at the forefront from her extensive work with children through a non-profit association she founded or working with various school boards. Linda is responsible for building a strong tutor base that will give us the freedom to ensure the best match for each child is achieved. She is responsible for job postings, interviewing, hiring and ensuring we attract “the best of the best” tutors for our families. She is dedicated to finding tutors with the special skills needed to help our students succeed and ensuring our tutors are well prepared to meet with their students and families.

Hello! My name is Shannon and I have been working with Tutor Doctor as a tutor and Educational Consultant since 2020. I have over 16 years’ experience in the teaching profession, having taught Kindergarten through to Grade 12 in Calgary and abroad as a certificated teacher. I have since pursued leadership roles in schools and school boards with my Masters level education and a focus on instructional leadership; helping teachers to do their best work. Tutor Doctor has provided me with the opportunity to get back to my grass roots, working with students and their families to regain confidence, stretch existing skills and achieve their learning goals. I believe that all students can learn and succeed. Some of us just don’t “fit in the box” so to speak and need a more personalized approach to their learning in order to thrive. There is nothing more intrinsically rewarding than that!
