Tutoring Opportunities for Teachers in Simcoe County

S.M.A.R.T. Tutoring and Test Preparation Services works with Ontario Certified Teachers and experienced educators who provide personalized in-home and local library tutoring for elementary and high school students across Simcoe County including Alliston, Barrie, Bradford, Innisfil, Midland, and Orillia.

If you’re looking to work with motivated students while focusing on teaching, S.M.A.R.T. Tutoring provides the students, administrative support, and professional systems that allow educators to do their best work.

We believe tutoring should reflect the professional standards of great teaching, not quick-fix homework help.

Why Teachers Choose S.M.A.R.T. Tutoring

S.M.A.R.T. Tutors establish a consistent weekly tutoring time with each student. S.M.A.R.T. Tutoring supports the client relationship and manages the business side so tutors can focus on teaching.
