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 $55/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

Extremely Grateful

I just wanted to follow up on my daughter’s experience with TTS.

Jordan A. was prompt, accommodating and supportive to our daughters needs.  We were able to work out a weekly schedule plus Mr. A was accommodating to a few extra sessions prior to tests. Mr. A. in both his communications with me and my daughter, was always prompt and kind. He supported our daughter to understand Chemistry 12 concepts in a way that was more aligned with our daughter’s learning style.

We are extremely grateful for our whole experience overall with TTS and look forward to continuing with tutoring for our other children in the upcoming school year.

Wishing you a great summer, Rain.

Above and beyond

Silviu Z. is an excellent tutor, helping me excel in both in-person and online courses through his vast resources and knowledge of the BC curriculum. He was instrumental in my success through my pre-calculus courses, and continues to assist me moving into my university classes, most notably MATH 100. Thank you to Mr. Z for going above and beyond to help his students succeed.

Very helpful, thorough and professional

Daniel S. tutored my son in Chemistry 11 a few times and we were very pleased with his services. My son did better than expected on his Chemistry 11 final! We would not hesitate in hiring him again or in recommending him to others. He was very helpful, thorough and professional! Thank you very much!

Thank you for your time and effort

I would like to thank the tutor Gerry M. for his time and effort to provide help to my son. The final report has been issued today and his Calculus 12 is 87% which is “A”. I am glad that he had Gerry as his tutor during the last month of school. 

Once again, thank you for your time and effort.

Kind and fun tutor

Our family contacted Patricia in a bit of a panic last fall when my daughter’s grade 6 classroom teacher went on leave and we were left with a different substitute every day. 

Patricia fit us in right away and started working with my daughter in math and language arts. Listening to their sessions my daughter was happy and engaged – a miracle! Patricia encouraged her creative writing skills and her appreciation of my daughter’s writing really gave my daughter confidence to work hard on her writing and take it to the next level.  In math Patricia has worked tirelessly on the fundamentals with my daughter and her most recent report card showed a vast improvement from the last two. I cannot recommend Patricia’s kind, fun, consistent and thoughtful approach more. She is a wonderful tutor.

Very helpful in explaining confusing concepts

I had Silviu’s help for IB Math Analysis and Approaches (IB Math AA HL) throughout the entire program. Silviu always provided the necessary materials and was very helpful in explaining confusing concepts. Silviu is very knowledgeable about the IB Math AA program and this is evident through his ability to deliver the necessary math content. Thank you, Silviu!

Highly Recommend

Silviu gave me tutorials for IB AA HL Math, and also IB AA SL Math after I switched later in the year. He guided me through many difficult topics allowing me to grasp them before continuing. His tutorials were of exceptional quality and I highly recommend!

Math IB

Max H.

Thank you

I’d started tutoring with Silviu Z. back when I was in the IB program for Math and Physics SL and continued upon entering university for Calculus 1 and Calculus 2. Similar to my experience back in high school, I really appreciated how we covered, in depth, any topics that were challenging, went through a variety of practice questions, and discussed efficient problem-solving techniques in each lesson. Thank you! – Shreyanshi V.

Still wondering about tutoring costs?

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 $55/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.
