"We had some problems finding qualified, reliable and caring tutors in mathematics for our grandchildren and English teachers for our grown-up children for a long time. Luckily, PD Plus Tutoring Service was referred to us and we are very pleased with the performance. We would like to express our gratitude and thank PD Plus Tutoring Service and personally the Director, Angela Bissett, for helping us to find committed, organized, well-prepared tutors and patient, encouraging professionals in our area. Everything is going great and our children and grandchildren can't wait for their next lessons! We would highly recommend PD Plus Tutoring Service to our friends and to all ages and gender.

"I have been a client of PD Tutoring Plus for approximately one year. I have been impressed with Angela Bissett's commitment to service and her interest in selecting just the right tutor for my son. The tutors that we have met have been qualified and kind. PD Tutoring Plus fulfills an educational niche that enables the child to gain confidence in their work and in their abilities."

"I just wanted to contact you and let you know that last week on my daughter's report card she got 6 B's and 2 A's (Math included). She even made the honour roll! Not a bad way to start off high school. I had tears in my eyes when she told me. Things are working out really well and your tutor is now concentrating on helping her with French rather than Math. Thanks for having such great tutors!"

"The tutor was fantastic. He is exactly what we needed...he and my son got along terrifically. I really think that this is going to be a long-term fit and a good one. So thank you very much for having the foresight to make this match."

"First of all, I must compliment you on the integrity of my tutor. He is both capable and knowledgeable. I have not done math in six years and it was never a strength of mine. I am applying to SFU and needed to upgrade my skills in this area consequently I was facing some deadlines. Adrian honestly questioned the feasibility of my completing my Math course in three months. I didn't realize how many hours per day I would need to put in to pass the course. Therefore, as a result of this conversation, I am going to withdraw from the course at this time. In the fall I am going to attempt a math course that SFU will be offering by distance and I would be delighted to use him again at that time. I would like to thank him for his accurate assessment and support in this matter!"

"Your tutor is wonderful and very organized, precise, concise, and very bright. He just couldn't be better. We are very pleased to have him - don't let anyone else have him - we want to keep him!"

"She is a superb tutor. My daughter went from a 66
average to a 92 average in less than 6 months, thanks to her. She is
very patient and her teaching methods appear to be very effective."

Melanie, Coquitlam

"After seeing my daughter struggle at school with her reading, writing, spelling and everything language arts and noting that things were not improving, I contacted PD Plus to find out about tutoring.  Within 2-3 days Angela had a tutor for my daughter.  We had our first meeting and after Lynda assessed our daughter I was more than thrilled and relieved to know that what our daughter was experiencing was not the end of the world and with Lynda working with her I am seeing that her confidence is and will be growing in her skills and that will translate to the classroom and reflect in her work.  Our daughter is very thrilled to have a tutor - someone just for her - to work with, it is really exciting to see our daughter thrilled by this whole process. I would highly recommend PD Plus Tutoring.  Their tutors are awesome!

"My son had a great report card, with a 4 or 5 mark rise in MATH so having a tutor focus him on getting it done is helping."

Tracy, Vancouver.

"Our tutor is wonderful.  He is very knowledgeable of Chemistry, and he is very generous of his time.  My daughter has shown great improvement in her IB Chemistry 11 Class.  I am so pleased to have found PD Plus. The tutoring arrangement is very flexible, and their tutors are so highly qualified."

Testimonials From Our Tutors:

"My name is Celine Gilmore. I have been working as a tutor with PD Plus for two years. During that time I have found PD Plus to be professional in every aspect. Their priority is to foster a good student-tutor relationship, which is conducive to learning and progress. The Director is very approachable and is always willing to answer questions in a timely fashion, give advice and share ideas. Monthly progress reports on each student ensure that the tutor, the parents, and PD Plus are on top of the student's progress, allowing the opportunity for intervention if necessary. "

"I have been a tutor with PD Plus for over two years and continue to enjoy the variety of opportunities it gives me to use my teaching skills. I have tutored both native speakers and ESL students through PD Plus in the areas of writing, socials, English as a second language and homework support. The agency offers tutors the flexibility and array of teaching materials needed to conduct interesting and effective lesson plans. All the students I have tutored have been motivated and polite, and their parents hospitable and kind. As an employee of PD Plus I always feel appreciated- I highly recommend this agency to everyone."

"My name is Daniel Amezcua and I have had the pleasure to work for PD Plus Tutoring Service as an ESL tutor since 2006. Having worked as an ESL teacher and private tutor for various companies in and around Vancouver, I have to say working for PD Plus has been one of my best employment experiences. In the past, I had to deal with dishonest employers and uncertain wages. Not so with PD Plus! PD Plus allows me the freedom to choose my own schedule, collect my own payments, and set my own curriculum. In addition, Angela is an approachable employer who maintains a daily rapport with her tutors via e-mail and is supportive with new ideas and lesson plans. I highly recommend PD Plus Tutoring Service as a grade A company to work for!"

"I have worked for PD Plus on and off for about two years. Angela has been a supportive employer throughout this time. She has written me references when I wanted to go back to school to get my teaching certification, and hired me back after I took a leave to concentrate on my studies. She finds jobs for tutors when they need them, and if you can only work a couple of hours a week, she understands. In terms of my daily work with the students, one of the things I most enjoy is working with them one on one and having the opportunity to develop a relationship. This allows me to better understand their motivations, as well as fostering a sense of trust that is very beneficial to the student-tutor relationship. To me, there is no better feeling than seeing a student who was struggling begin to flourish. That is where my job satisfaction comes from; it is such a reward and encourages both the student and me to keep working hard."

"I have worked for PD Plus for more than two years and have enjoyed the excellent standard of care not only for the students but also for tutors. My students and I have benefited from the useful teaching materials provided and that we can count on PD Plus to diplomatically take care of any problems that arise. I like that I can create a schedule that works for me and that my students are committed to learning which makes it interesting for both of us. PD Plus is a great company to work for."

"PD Plus Tutors was a wonderful discovery. It has put me in contact with several students, and we meet at times that fit both our schedules. The agency provides their tutors with plenty of useful and appropriate material to supplement the lessons, and are always available to help the tutors in any way they can. I would highly recommend PD Plus for tutors who are looking for a quality agency and quality students."
