What's a reasonable price to charge as a tutor?
Posted on 9/22/14 at 7:18 pm

Someone asked me to tutor his kid and he told me to let him know what I think would be a fair rate to charge. I have no idea what a reasonable price is for tutoring and I'm not trying to take advantage of this guy and overcharge or anything. Has anyone here ever tutored/been tutored? What did you charge/pay? TIA 
ETA: the guy is in college.

How much is your time worth?
$30/hr? $50/hr?
Are the parents ballers?

College, entry level accounting course. I haven't met the guy but it seems like he cares he's just having trouble grasping it.

Im sure you can Google standard rates for college tutors.

$40 for college

Look up tutoring services and charge accordingly. There's dozens of websites that offer tutoring services.

The thing is I'm a senior accounting major and the guy is taking his first accounting class. I know it and can teach it to him but I'm not some professional tutor or anything. And I have a feeling google will give me the going rate for professional tutors. Just thought it may be a good idea to ask around here.

I would say $20-25/hour.
The better people at LSU are around $25-30/hour.

About $30/hour.

What do you think your hour is worth including any prep time you might need. $45 seems good to me. He may only need a handful of lessons to grasp the basics and build from there.

30 sounds reasonable

If you haven't tutored before, but are knowledgeable in the course material, you're in the $25 range. The rate goes up as you become more proficient in teaching others.

$20 hr. is totally fair imo.

Thanks everyone for the input

If your not used to tutoring $25 is probably good.
