How much is a tutor in the Vancouver Island?

At TTS, we offer affordable tutoring services for you and your family. The cost for tutoring is as follows:

Competitive tutoring rates

Because we are a non-profit, TTS offers competitive tutoring rates for highly qualified tutors.

Our rate is $57/hr per hour with no minimums required – simply pay as you go on an hourly basis.

No commitments or contracts

With TTS, you are not required to commit to any number of lessons, nor do we require you to sign a contract. It is a pay as you go system. You pay for each lesson when it takes place.

Our tutors are available to help with both short term needs (as short as one session) as well as ongoing tutoring, for those that are looking for help for a semester or a school year.

Do you offer in-person tutoring on Vancouver Island?

We offer in-person tutoring exclusively in the Lower Mainland, but provide online tutoring across the entire province.

Will online tutoring work for me?

The vast majority of clients that try online tutoring find success. Our tutors have individualized their online delivery to suit the subject matter and their teaching style. Online  tutoring uses video chat technology equipped with whiteboards and many other educational applications. At TTS, we don’t use a “one-size fits all” solution, rather, our tutors tailor their teaching to each student’s needs.

The tutor is teaching your student only, and is able to give them the same individual attention that they could if they were sitting together. In addition, our tutors are still local and are trained to deliver the BC curriculum – and they’ve been working online for several years now, bringing experience and expertise.

What our students are saying

Organized and systematic teaching style

I received tutoring in Pre-Calculus 12 and Physics 12, and the support I was given had a significant impact on my understanding of both subjects. Silviu also significantly helped me improve my Pre-Calculus 12 mark. Beyond academics, he provided valuable insights into how post-secondary education works, along with practical advice for preparing for it.

One of the strongest aspects of the tutoring was the depth of experience he brought from working with many other students. This allowed him to share useful strategies, common challenges, and effective ways of approaching difficult concepts. He also provided a wide range of academic resources and structured materials that made studying much more efficient and focused.

In addition, his teaching style was very organized and systematic. Each session followed a clear structure, and there was a consistent approach to learning that made it easy to build on previous lessons. This consistency helped me stay on track and develop a stronger understanding over time.

Overall, I had a very positive experience and would highly recommend Silviu as a tutor to other students.

Huge part of my academic success

Silviu at TTS Tutoring Services has been a huge part of my academic success throughout high school. He is patient, knowledgeable, and always made sure I fully understood the material while pushing me to achieve my best. Thanks to his guidance with academics and resources, I was able to earn strong grades in math and physics 11 – 12, and I would highly recommend him to any student looking to improve their confidence and performance in school. He has also helped explain things related to the University process and is eager to help with anything he is able to.

High As in all 3 classes

I had Silviu as my tutor for Physics 11 and Pre Calculus 11 and 12. With his help I was able to earn high As in all 3 classes. He does a great job of making sure his students actually understand the material and can apply it in their school work 🙂

Recommend it for anyone looking for high quality tutoring

I had a great experience using the Teachers’ Tutoring Service. We were able to quickly find a tutor for our Grade 12 student in math and science, and the support helped them achieve strong results. The process was simple and it was easy to find a tutor who was a good fit for our needs. I would highly recommend this service to anyone looking for quality tutoring and an easy way to connect with the right teacher.

Silviu played a huge role in my journey

I have worked the past 4 years with Silviu, pretty much my entire high school career. He has been such an excellent tutor always making sure I am prepared, having patience with me when I struggle, and constantly pushing me to excel towards my best. Especially when it came to the University applications season he was very helpful. With his guidance I was able to get a 97% in grade 11 math, a 99% in grade 12, a 94% in Calculus 12, and a 92% in Physics 11. Clearly my results reflect his efforts as it were not for his extra guidance I would have not understood to course material as deeply. I definitely recommend him to any student who wants to work hard towards a high average and get into a good University. This fall I will enter at the University of Toronto. Thanks to Silviu for playing such a huge role in my journey!

I felt very prepared

As an IB Math AA SL student, I have been taking classes with Silviu for the two years of this course. Throughout this time, he has helped me understand the material better than how it was taught by my school teachers, and provided many useful materials for practice. With him, I felt very prepared for both my Mock Exams where I got perfect scores on both paper 1 and paper 2, earning me a solid predicted score of 7. I would highly recommend others to seek assistance from him.

This is a miracle!

Teachers tutoring service has played a significant role in R. education. Jack k. has done some great work with R., we are very grateful to have him, he is a wonderful tutor. Since R. has started with teachers tutoring service he has gone from kindergarten level English to grade 9 English, reading and writing. This is a miracle! I was told from professional that it would be impossible for him to improve this much in such a short period of time, but he has, with the help of teachers tutoring service. R. is at grade 4 level mathematics, he has improved because he was at kindergarten level 2 years ago. R. and I thank you, all of your staff and all of the people that donate to your establishment. 

Teachers tutoring service changes lives, R. would not be where he is at without the support that he has received from your establishment. R. is working on writing a letter to teachers tutoring service.

Huge difference

I took MATH 151 at the University of Victoria and worked with Silviu from Teachers Tutoring Service. He was very helpful in breaking down challenging concepts into steps that were much easier for me to understand. I was struggling with certain topics, but his explanations helped provide clarity and helped me to be confident going into exams.

Silviu was professional, patient and always willing to go over questions multiple times until I understood them. His support made a huge difference in my ability to get through the course.

Still wondering about tutoring costs?

icons_benefit-5

Cost of tutoring broken down

TTS is a non profit society, and as such, our goal is to provide you with affordable, high quality tutoring, while minimizing cost. The bulk of the $57/hr hourly rate is paid to the tutor, while a small portion of it covers the TTS administration and staffing costs. In addition, TTS then donates a small part of this amount to TAS Tutoring Aid Society, our registered BC charity that provides subsidized tutoring services to students that wouldn’t otherwise be able to afford tutoring.
