Experience the Education Boom with Tutor Doctor
We’ve helped countless franchisees in the UK launch profitable businesses. Our tools, processes and unparalleled support have helped our franchisees in the UK build and grow their businesses. You always have the support of the Head Office team and our wider network of fellow franchisees around the globe for guidance and help.
We are an active Corporate Member of The Tutors’ Association, working closely with them to further the tutoring profession and standards in the UK. We are very proud that 2 out of the 29 National Tutoring Programme (NTP) approved tuition partners are Tutor Doctor franchisees!
At Tutor Doctor, we believe that freedom shouldn’t come with unbearable risks. Our franchise owners, representing over 600 units in 13 countries, get the career freedom they crave without the enormous weight of going out on their own. In the UK, we started operations in 2008, and have grown to over 133 territories. A study conducted by the Sutton Trust found that over a third of pupils in the UK receive private tuition, and that nearly 60% of secondary school students in the UK have received private tuition at some point in their academic career.
According to research into the private tutoring market, carried out by Cairneagle on behalf of Supporting Education Group in January 2022, demand is projected to translate into strong growth in the next few years, and forecasts a compound annual growth rate of 7% for the tutoring market until 2025.

Training & Support Provided:
We’ve spent the past two decades perfecting a comprehensive onboarding process to help our franchisees get their businesses up and tutoring as quickly as possible. We go above and beyond to prepare our franchisees for business ownership, assigning each franchisee a Launch Support Specialist who works closely with you throughout your first year in all aspects of the business.
After your first year of business, you can choose the type of ongoing support that fits your needs best. Get help when and where you need it with Specialist Support or participate in our Active Coaching Program, which will give you access to one-to-one coaching to guide you through your next year of operation.

The Financial Info:
The Tutor Doctor franchise fee starts at £38,000, but if you have at least £13,500 in available liquid capital Tutor Doctor has a number of financial partners who can help you finance your investment; alternatively, you may qualify for the Government backed Business Start-Up Scheme which allows you to borrow up to £25,000 without investing any money of your own. (This figure doubles if the business has two Directors.)
Working from home your overheads will remain low as there are no premises, equipment, leases or inventory involved. Tutor Doctor will assist you in generating leads, and can also connect you to its lead generation partners who can help you get your business off the ground.

Expected returns after two years vary, however, Tutor Doctor insists that it is its priority to give you as much support as you need to turn your franchise into a profitable and successful business. Moreover, field research has revealed that franchisees following its proven model consistently have enjoyed high, and early returns, as well as compounding recurring revenues.

New revenue stream sees 30% increase for franchisees
![Tutor Doctor Image](https://static4.franchisedirect.ie/dims4/default/4856f29/2147483647/strip/true/crop/741x486+0+0/resize/741x486!/quality/95/?url=https%3A%2F%2Ffranchisedirect-40-prod-ops.s3.amazonaws.com%2Ff0%2Fa5%2Fde2457a4f9ab3a80d4f4e78cfdc4%2Fnew-revenue-stream-pr-image.jpg)
The revolutionary route to market is a result of a collaboration between the team at Tutor Doctor head office and a focus group of its franchisees. Together they created a bespoke suite of marketing collateral, process documents, how-to webinars and even tutor education programmes to help all 78 members of the UK network capitalise on the new revenue stream. A demonstration of the power franchising at its best!
“We have just had our biggest ever quarter and this growth is driven by our work with schools,” says Rob Kerrison of Tutor Doctor Cambridge and Norwich. “Our school revenues this March are three times more than last year as the programmes we are now running are far broader and more complex and we need to provide a stronger team with more tutors, more variety and flexibility. We deliver an exceptional service to these schools, and they really value the work we do.”
Tutor Doctor franchisees work closely with over 50 schools across the country. A testament to the exceptional quality of its service and the regard in which the brand is held, Tutor Doctor is the only tutoring franchise in the country accredited by the National Tutoring Programme (NTP). The NTP is a government-funded, sector-led initiative to support schools as they strive to address the impact of Covid-19 on pupils' learning.
Frank Milner, President of Tutor Doctor, explains: “We have always encouraged our franchisees to build relationships with their local schools, but recent events highlighted the importance of such partnerships and the opportunities they provide - for students, schools and franchisees alike. In collaboration with a pioneering group of franchisees, we’ve developed a system that helps franchisees translate the specific needs of schools and educators into an outcome-focussed service that can be replicated throughout their territory.
“Through our continued commitment to support students through these programmes, we’re seeing tutoring becoming more relied upon to supplement mainstream education. And, thanks to additional government funding being made available, this much needed service has become more available to students who, in the past, may not have been able to access it.”
Piyush Gupta, franchisee for Tutor Doctor Peterborough, drove an increase in his business’ revenue of over 100% in the last year alone. In Q1 of 2022, his franchise ranked number two for sales not just in the UK, but globally, for the entire Tutor Doctor network. As part of the Schools’ Market focus group, Piyush and the team concentrated on building valuable partnerships with local schools in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic.
“Working with schools has been a huge contributing factor to our success. This is something that the entire network has been able to benefit from. These new solutions mean we can continue delivering education to those in need and help address the learning loss. In this academic year alone, we’re on track to deliver 11,000 hours of education in various capacities! We’ve proven ourselves to be a trusted, reliable partner and as such, now have a close relationship with the local authorities. This has also seen us become the main education provider to children in care or not in education.”
Tutor Doctor is the fastest-growing in-home tutoring franchise in the world, with over 700 franchise units operating in 16 countries. Franchisees manage a team of tutors and work closely with families and schools to identify individual the needs of each student whether online or in person, so that they can learn in the comfort of their own home, at a time that suits them. As successful business owners at the heart of the local community, franchisees help children to achieve their potential and change lives for the better.
“The ongoing impact we’re having in the schools’ market truly affirms our collective mission to change the trajectory of students’ lives,” adds Frank.
