The Best Tutoring in Calgary, AB

We tutor to the Alberta Program of Studies and to what your child is learning in class. Our team stays current on curriculum updates for CBE, CCSD, Rocky View Schools, and Foothills School Division. Tutors review teacher outlines, recent assignments, and upcoming assessments so sessions support what is happening in the classroom. We also prepare students for Alberta standardized tests, including Grade 6 and 9 PATs and Grade 12 Diploma Exams. In high school, that often means focused help in Math 10C, Math 20-1 or 20-2, Math 30-1 or 30-2, calculus, Chemistry 20 and 30, Biology 20 and 30, Physics 20 and 30, and ELA 10-1 through 30-1. This tight alignment helps students keep pace and build confidence.

We provide one-to-one tutoring for all ages, from elementary through adult learning. Common areas include:
– Math K to 12, Math 30-1 and 30-2, calculus and statistics
– Science K to 12, Chemistry, Biology, and Physics
– English Language Arts K to 12, reading and writing support
– Social Studies and study skills
– English language learning support for newcomers and multilingual students
– Diploma Exam and PAT preparation
– University support for select first-year math and statistics
A local Calgary parent shared, “their sons Math 30 grade improved significantly with in-person sessions, which reflects the personalized, course-specific support we aim to deliver.”

Our process is simple:
1) Assess: We start with a free consultation to learn about goals, learning style, and school requirements.
2) Match: We select a tutor with the right subject expertise and personality fit. If the fit is not right, we adjust quickly.
3) Tutor: Sessions focus on filling learning gaps, helping with current coursework, and building confidence.
4) Support: You receive session reports and regular check-ins so we can refine goals and celebrate progress.

Yes. We work with students who have ADHD, dyslexia, anxiety, and other learning differences, and we can align with school IEPs where applicable. For English language learners, we tailor instruction to language proficiency levels used in local schools and build vocabulary, reading, and writing strategies connected to current coursework. We also build executive functioning skills through our X-Skills approach, which covers organization, planning, time management, prioritization, and goal setting. With over 30 percent of CBE students identified as English language learners, we understand how to support multilingual families in practical, encouraging ways.

You receive an update after every session that outlines what was covered, strengths, and next steps. We set short-term goals that tie to upcoming quizzes, projects, PATs, or Diploma Exams and we adjust the plan as needed. We check in with parents and students, and when possible we align with teacher feedback. This transparency helps you see steady gains in understanding, study habits, and grades.

Tutors with Tutor Doctor are carefully vetted through interviews and background checks. We look for strong subject knowledge, teaching or mentoring experience, and the ability to explain concepts clearly. Many have classroom or tutoring experience in Alberta course pathways and are selected for their ability to connect with students. We match by expertise, learning style, and personality so your child works with someone they trust and respect.
