The Ultimate Tutor Onboarding Checklist

Tired of tutors quitting after a week? Or worse… they stay but constantly make mistakes and need hand-holding? It’s probably not your hiring process; that’s where most business owners go wrong. The real issue? A missing onboarding system. And today, I’m walking you through the exact 5-step onboarding system that helped me build a reliable tutoring team and scale to a multi-7-figure business. 🎯 In this video, you’ll learn: ✔️ How to make tutors feel valued from day one ✔️ What to include in your tutor training SOPs ✔️ Why buddy systems and culture-building boost retention ✔️ How check-ins and community reduce turnover and tutor ghosting I’ve used this process to help thousands of tutoring business owners, from first-time hirers to 7-figure CEOs, build dream teams that actually stick around. ✨ Want the full system in checklist format?

A few of you are new here so I thought I'd introduce myself ☺️ I'm Lisa (hehe). I'm in my early 30s, though I'm often told I look like I'm in my young 20s (and I never get sick of hearing this 😂). I started tutoring English when I was 19, just after high school. Who knew that I'd still be in the tutoring business TWELVE+ years later? **mind blown** Tutoring was SO incredibly rewarding and fulfilling that I moved into it full-time when I was 24. I fell in love with tutoring so much that I ended up quitting my career as a pharmacist after only 11 months on the job. Skip ahead to 3 months later, I was fully booked out and was already rejecting new students who had been referred to me. I felt so bad for saying 'no' that I ended up hiring my first tutor. Within 6 months, my team had grown to 5 tutors, and within a couple of years, I had 50+ tutors on my team! It's been a rollercoaster of a journey. I've been awarded Anthill 30under30, Victorian Younger Achievers Finalist, spoken at TEDx, and been blessed with so much more. Not going to lie, business is HARD. That's why I want to share my learnings and experiences with you, because I wish I had a tutor mentor who could accelerate my path to success, rather than struggling through all the mistakes I made during my journey. Lisa's Study Guides, my tuition and study guide business has made 1 million+ over the last 2 years, and I've just started my second business, Tutorboss, helping tutoring business owners build and scale their businesses.
