1 / How does tutoring work at Foothills?

Easy! You choose the subject and type of tutor that fits your needs (certified educator, academic tutor, or student tutor). Sessions are one-on-one, online or in person, and designed to help you feel confident, prepared, and a little less stressed.

2 / Are drop in sessions same price as weekly?

Yes, Same price for drop-in or weekly, but weekly gets you the VIP treatment (same tutor, same time, same spot).

3 / What’s the difference between weekly and drop-in sessions?

Weekly sessions guarantee consistent weekly support: same tutor, same time, same location (or virtual)                                                                         

Drop-in: Flexible, book as needed (up to 7 days in advance), Availability varies week to week, ideal for make-up sessions or flexible schedules​

4 / What if I need to miss a session?

Life happens, we get it! Just give us at least 24 hours’ notice, and you can rebook using our drop-in link.
 

5 / What if I cancel last minute?

Less than 24 hours? Unfortunately, the session is still charged. We save that time just for you and your tutor is ready to go!

6 / Do you offer online tutoring?

Absolutely! Whether you’re in your bedroom or at the rink waiting for practice, you can hop into a one-on-one virtual session from anywhere.

7 / What subjects do you tutor?

We’ve got you covered in:

• Math - All Streams

• Science, Chemistry, Physics, Biology

• English

• Need something else? Ask! We might have a tutor for that too.

8 / Can a teacher tutor me if I attend the same school they teach at? 

Good question! Unfortunately, teachers are not able to tutor students from their school. But don’t worry, we’ll match you with someone equally awesome.

9 / Who are your tutors, anyway?

Certified teachers, university students, and high-achieving high school grads who want to help you succeed.

10 / What if I’m doing okay in school — should I still get a tutor?

Totally. Many of our students already have decent marks but want to stay ahead, prep for exams, or boost their confidence. A tutor isn’t just for when you’re struggling, it’s for leveling up.
