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.
So, what sets Tutor Doctor apart?
- Our service is highly personalised. A one-size-fits-all strategy isn’t what we do. We carefully match tutors to students and have a creative approach tailored to each child.
- We are local. Our franchise owners build partnerships, support local schools and positively impact their local communities.
- More than tutoring. As a Tutor Doctor franchisee, no two days are ever the same. Your day is filled with diverse tasks that keep you engaged and connected with your community.
- Award-Winning: We're the #1 education franchise in the UK. Featured in Elite Franchise Top 100 every year since its inception. Highly Commended by the Best Children’s Services & Education Franchise at the 2021 Global Franchise Awards.
But don’t just take it from us - over 3000 families have rated us 4.9 on Google.
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.

Tutor Doctor continuing to give lessons on success
The global in-home and online tutoring franchise, Tutor Doctor, is no exception, as the brand is entering the new year having celebrated huge successes across its growing network of over 350 franchisees.
At the beginning of December, 2022, Tutor Doctor’s international franchise network came together in Orlando, Florida from the USA, Canada, the UK, Australia, South Africa and Latin America to reflect on the last 12-months, share ideas and look ahead to the future. The first in-person conference since the pandemic, the theme of ‘Dream, Believe, Achieve’ has never rung more true for Tutor Doctor’s team of dedicated, passionate franchisees. All of whom are solely committed to raising the standards of education for students around the world. Keynote speakers included Director of Strategic Alliances, Michelle Campbell, CFE, and published author and entrepreneur, Omar Soliman, among others. Also taking to the stage to offer his expert insight was Tutor Doctor UK’s very own Adie Twining. Adie, as well as being awarded this year’s New Franchisee of the Year Award, discussed the unwavering efforts he and his team have dedicated towards supporting his community through the Ukrainian refugee project.
Global President of Tutor Doctor, Frank Milner, believes this opportunity for celebration was the ideal way to see out the end of 2022 and take the international community of franchisees and education specialists into an exciting new period for the brand.
“It was fantastic to finally come together as a network after such a long wait!” said Frank. “As an international franchise, we have a diversity of driven, passionate entrepreneurs who’ve been waiting for this opportunity, not only to be recognised for their hard work, but to share thoughts and ideas among like-minded individuals within the network. That’s really what makes our franchise tick. This year has been incredibly successful and I’m immensely proud of the achievements we’ve celebrated in both the education and franchise industries.
“By taking the time to celebrate our achievements, we’ve affirmed our collective goals, and we can’t wait to use them as a springboard taking us into 2023 and beyond.”
A black-tie awards evening capped off the conference, with the UK franchise network dominating categories as both winners and finalists. Although some franchisees didn’t bring an award home, every award category saw nominations from UK franchisees, who have been credited for an exceptional 2022. This included Rob and Lynne Kerrison of Tutor Doctor Cambridge and Norwich, who were the third highest performing franchise financially across the entire international network this year. Award winners, meanwhile, were:
- Franchisee of the Year Award: Piyush Gupta, Peterborough, Huntingdon, Stamford
- New Franchisee of the Year: Adie Twining, Southampton
- Hall of Fame Award: Mark and Jo Butler, Reading, Wokingham, Maidenhead
To cap off an incredibly successful year for Tutor Doctor, the franchise has solidified its position as one of the most exciting and innovative franchise opportunities. Placing 16th on the Elite Franchise Top 100 league table and number one for education franchises, the brand enters the new year with a reaffirmed mission. Tutor Doctor is not only paving the way for a brighter future in the education industry but is setting the standards as one of the leading franchises available today
