<p>If you’re looking to do this as a job, then I would try to see what the going rate for tutors with your experience is in your area. In areas that are more affluent, you should be able to charge more, but you’ll probably get fewer clients (or whatever you’d like to call them) in a poorer area.</p>
<p>When I tutor other students on campus, I understand that most of them can’t afford to pay too much for a session. I usually charge $10-$15 depending on the level of difficulty that they’re having with the subject. </p>
<p>If a parent contacts me to tutor their student, I charge $25 an hour.</p>
<p>When we lived in a very high cost of living area (7-10 years ago), people paid my husband, an experienced high school math teacher, $60/hour to tutor math. He had more business than he could handle because he was very, very good at explaining things to kids one-on-one, whether it was remediation, enrichment, independent study to skip a year, or anything else. </p>
<p>When we moved to this area, I think the going rate for an experienced high school math teacher was on the order of $40/hour.</p>
<p>I don’t think there is anything wrong with charging for tutoring if you have a skill and want to earn money. Perhaps you could even tutor also for community service at a school or Boys and Girls Club. As for tutoring, often colleges will hire students to work in the tutoring center, or as an alternative you can also find websites in which you can join and advertise as a tutor. Or you could possibly advertise at a local public library on your own? As for tuturing I would say that $25.00 and up is the going rate in our area. People are willing to invest money to help their kids with tutoring.</p>
<p>I’ve seen insane prices of tutoring up to $60. If I were to tutor someone, I would honestly just ask around $10-20 depending on my own schedule’s rigor and the subject that he/she needs help on. Since I know many college students can’t afford paid tutoring, including myself, I probably would even make it less than $10 per hour in certain instances.</p>
