Tutor costs?
 

Hello:)
I would like to know how much a tutor charges an hour?
People are asking me to tutor them (elementary) and I wanted to know what do people usually charge per hour?
Thanks in advance for any help.

Elementary, you're probably going to be getting less than college level tutoring.

Working for my university, I was making $7.50 an hour, but I was an On call tutor - I got paid to staff the center, and may have worked a shift and not tutored.

When tutoring college level privately, I charged $30/hr.

When I recieved tutoring at home in 6th grade for advanced math, the tutor was getting paid $12-15/hr.

When I worked for a private high school tutoring center last year, I was paid $16/hr.

Change your title to educational therapist and you can get $75 an hour. That's what I paid when my son was the last kid in his class to learn how to read and it was worth every penny.

So....you got suckered?

A friend of mine is has two tutoring job, one for a tutoring center and one private. She gets 17 an hour at the center and around 30 doing private tutoring.

One of my university instructors used to charge $90 an hour for private tutoring. Since I was in her class, I coud go to office hours for free.

I paid $20 an hour to my college level math tutor.

If he feels that the results are worth what he paid, then he didn't unless you can provide evidence of similar results for a lower cost.

Thanks all, for the help. It is very much appreciated.

I charge $60- 70 an hour for English tutoring in Japan. I don't know how that works for the US, but my kids pass the entrance exams for Japanese Uni's, and the TOEFL for US Uni's, so my rate keeps going up. If there is a need you can meet, don't feel bad about charging an arm and a leg to those that need it. Everyone wins.

I picked up some tutoring last year. I charged $20 an hour and usually had 3-6 first year engineering students. $35 for a private session. When I was too busy with my own final exams and stopped offering sessions, as I explained would happen all semester, one of them offered me $70 an hour which I took. Her parents valued my time just enough.

I'm tutoring a former co-worker right now. He was one of my employees at my last job and convinced himself to get a higher education (he is 5 years older than me). He brings a bottle of alcohol or an import 6-pack and actually comes to my condo. I'm getting quite a collection/supply and he is managing a bar, so it is cheap for him.
