Hello! My name is Elizabeth Maranto. I have lived in Kingwood since 2005.
I am personally invested in the education of our community as a parent, grandparent, and educator. My four children all graduated from Kingwood High School, and I taught both 2nd and 4th grade in New Caney ISD.
My great love is teaching reading. I believe that reading and literature can broaden children’s minds, open worlds to them (whether real or imaginary) and create vast possibilities for their futures.
When I was presented with the opportunity to open Tutor Doctor Kingwood, I knew that it was a great fit for me. The Tutor Doctor model of helping students one to one, meeting them where they are in their learning, and working with individual learning styles, personalities, and needed accommodations, mirrored my philosophy of how to best help students achieve their goals and feel successful. After teaching through the pandemic, I understand the struggles that students, parents, and teachers faced with whole class virtual learning. Now, more than ever, students need the one-to-one attention of a tutor. Our tutors provide tutoring around the families’ schedule and in the comfort of their home. We work with each student individually to help meet the expectations of the classroom and address any gaps in learning. Our goal is to build the academic foundations that will help students be successful in school and, ultimately, in life.

Tutor Doctor is a locally owned and operated company that benefits from being part of an international educational network. Our online and in person tutoring has helped more than 300,000 students achieve their goals.
To ensure it works for your child, too, we:
•Listen carefully. We’ll start with a consultation to understand where you are and where you want to be, then recommend a plan to help.
• Make the right match. Does your child like video games? Hate tests? Respond best to art? Your personally matched tutor will tailor an approach to your student’s interests.
•Communicate as we go. After each session, we’ll share how your student did, what we will continue working on, and discuss any recommended changes to achieve your family’s goals.
Unlike many tutoring services, Tutor Doctor treats each student like a unique individual. We know that every child, teenager, and adult has different learning styles, and that all thinking caps can be tailored. That is why the tutors we work with sit down with you and your child to develop a program that fits their specific needs and learning abilities.

Tutor Doctor knows firsthand that one of the most important components of student success is access to tailored, one-to-one teaching and instruction. More than that, a student needs the right tutor for their specific academic goals and struggles, personality, and learning style. At Tutor Doctor, we make sure to find professional tutors that don’t just have the right qualifications on paper, but have a passion for what they do and possess excellent people skills. We want tutors who can build relationships with students and help them feel comfortable and cared for during sessions.
What Does It Take to Be a Tutor with Tutor Doctor?
The tutors we work with don’t just teach your child a subject; they teach them skills to conquer all educational obstacles. That is why they must go through a rigorous process to be part of our tutoring team!
We recruit the best tutors with a three-step approach:
1. We hire based on skill. We use a five-phase recruitment process, including face-to-face interviews, safety and background checks, and calling upon references to ensure tutors have the skills and experience to serve Tutor Doctor students with excellence.
2. We hire based on humanity. There is more to a tutor than skill. We care a lot about personability. In other words, we only hire tutors who we would want to hire for our own children.
3. We equip tutors for success. With ongoing professional development, support, thorough quality controls, and intentional customer feedback tracking, we constantly equip and assess tutors as they grow. If anyone doesn’t live up to our rigorous standards, we stop partnering with them.
This multi-step process ensures only the best of the best are able to tutor your child!
At the core of everything we do is company values. Every franchise location, team member, and tutor lives by these values. We believe that by living out these values with our mission in mind, we are able to reach students in a more meaningful way—beyond the boundaries of the classroom.
Our Mission The mission of Tutor Doctor is to change the trajectory of students’ lives.
Our Values Our brand values are at the core of everything we do at Tutor Doctor. They are the principles that shape how we support our students, treat people, and perform our roles.
•Understanding: We begin by presuming the goodwill of others. We seek
first to hear, not tell. To empathize, not criticize. To know before we
do.
•Curiosity: We demonstrate the power of learning by learning.
We’re interested and inquisitive, looking beyond what is to what could
be.
•Ingenuity: We imagine, create, devise and design. We fashion,
we fit, and we form. We do what it takes to meet the needs of those we
serve.
•Ownership: We're accountable for all that we do. We step up and seek responsibility. We own our work and earn our results.
