The Best Tutoring in Surrey, BC

We start with a free consultation to learn about your student, their goals, school context, and learning style. Then we recommend a tutor who fits on three levels: subject expertise, teaching approach, and personality. We serve families across Surreys neighbourhoods like Guildford, Fleetwood, Newton, Cloverdale, South Surrey, Whalley and City Centre, and the surrounding areas of White Rock, Delta, Langley City, Township of Langley, New Westminster, Burnaby, Richmond, Vancouver, North Vancouver, West Vancouver, Coquitlam, Port Coquitlam, Port Moody, Maple Ridge, Pitt Meadows, and Abbotsford. If the first match is not the right fit, our Tutor Fit Guarantee means we will adjust the plan or tutor. A local parent put it simply: Love how Tutor Doctor pairs the student up with the right tutor for their learning style and personality.

Yes. Our tutoring is aligned to the BC curriculum and to what students are learning in Surrey Schools (School District 36) and nearby districts. We support classroom learning, address skill gaps, and help students prepare for provincial checkpoints like the Foundation Skills Assessment in Grades 4 and 7 and the BC Graduation Literacy and Numeracy assessments in the graduation years. With your permission, we can coordinate with classroom teachers so tutoring reinforces current units, rubrics, and pacing.

We tutor students of all ages, from early elementary through high school, post-secondary, and adult learners. Common requests include math, reading and writing, science, study skills, and test preparation. We also coach executive functioning through our X-Skills program so students build habits like organization, time management, planning, and follow-through. If you have a specific course or goal in mind, tell us during the consultation and we will tailor the plan.

You choose in-home or online sessions, or a mix of both. We schedule around your familys calendar including after school and weekends. Session length and frequency are set during the consultation and depend on goals, attention needs, and timelines. Online sessions include interactive tools and are recorded so students can rewatch before quizzes and exams. In-home sessions happen where students are most comfortable, which helps focus and confidence.

You receive updates after each session with what was covered, wins, and next steps. We set clear goals at the start and check progress against those goals, homework completion, quiz and test results, and confidence. If the plan needs to change, we adjust quickly and keep you in the loop.

Yes. One-to-one tutoring is well suited for students with learning differences or anxiety about school. With your input and any IEP or school plan you share, we target strategies that work for your child, pace lessons appropriately, and build executive skills that make school feel manageable. Our tutors are trained to adapt methods and materials so students feel supported and capable.

Yes. We prepare students for classroom tests, midterms and finals, provincial assessments like the FSA and the BC Graduation Literacy and Numeracy assessments, and other high-stakes exams your family identifies. We focus on content, practice under timed conditions, and proven test-taking strategies such as breaking down multi-step questions and managing time.

Tutors with Tutor Doctor are subject-strong and skilled at teaching. Many hold or are pursuing advanced degrees or have classroom or tutoring experience. Every tutor completes a thorough screening process that includes interviews and background checks. We look for clear communication, patience, and the ability to adapt to each students learning style. This is why families in Surrey tell us their children not only understand the work, but also feel more confident.
