Parents and guardians in Lagos could heave a sigh of relief as Tutor Doctor, a rapidly growing “at home” tutoring franchise worldwide enters the Nigerian market.
Tutor Doctor is offering one-to-one tutoring service designed to help students from ages 6 to 106 make the most of their study time, with special focus on students with various forms of special needs.
The demand for tutoring has evolved due to myriad reasons including the adoption of new technologies, rising student enrolments, intense competition among students, inability of standard education systems to address the unique needs of each student, lack of teaching staff at schools, and out-dated school infrastructural facilities.
‘’We look forward to assisting students in achieving their educational goals with programmes that are specifically designed to fit the needs of each individual. One-to-one tutoring ensures that each student is being given the utmost attention and tools for success. It also gives our tutors the satisfaction of seeing their students’ progress. We cannot wait to start helping students reach their full potential’’ said Ignatius Inyang, regional manager at Tutor Doctor, Lagos, Nigeria.
The education company uses a variety of well- known books and educational materials to supplement customised programmes, but the franchise primarily leverages the curriculum and text the student is currently working with to ensure the most relevant tutoring is provided. Working with students’ current teacher to it ensures that they are meeting both the student’s and teacher’s expectations.
It promises fewer “math meltdowns” and less homework headaches now that it is opening a new franchise location in Lagos, offering the community and students a private, easy way to catch-up or get ahead in school. Tutor Doctor of Nigeria will launch on the 10th of May 2017 at Four Points by Sheraton Victoria Island.
In addition to providing school- age students with tutoring in various subjects, families also hire Tutor Doctor to help students get ahead and prepare for more advanced challenges, such as Honours classes that could help them get into a preferred college or university.
Tutor Doctor was founded in 2000 as an alternative to the ‘’one-to-many’’ teaching model most extra-curricular learning centres offer by providing a personalised one-to-one, in-home tutoring service to students. In 2003 it turned to franchising as a way of expanding its impact and meeting the vast market demand.
With offices in Canada, the United States, Latin America, the United Kingdom, Middle East, Australia and Africa, the Tutor Doctor vision is becoming a reality as the lives of students and their families are being positively impacted throughout the world. With over 400 franchised territories worldwide, Tutor Doctor was listed by Entrepreneur Magazine as one of the fastest growing franchise brands.
