bravo 35 Report post Posted October 5, 2008 I've been asked to help tutor the son of a friend of my boss in 6th form maths for his upcoming exams. I helped my sister with hers about 2 years ago so relatively au fait with the curriculum, and the maths itself is a cakewalk, but I have no idea what to charge them. Anyone know the going rate?

greenday-rulz21 6 Report post Posted October 5, 2008 At my school if you want a student tutor, you're gonna have to pay around $15-$20 an hour. Wouldn't have a clue as to what a private tutor would charge, but it would be well above that. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bravo 35 Report post Posted October 5, 2008 Sweet, had $30 an hour in my head, so might go with that. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mtech1e30 0 Report post Posted October 6, 2008 Friends at uni that tutor high school students charge $30 per hour, so is a fair figure. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cale 36 Report post Posted October 6, 2008 I know someone this year who paid $45 for 1 hour with a tutor So I offered to tutor her for $25, and it is only 6th form Maths and a bit of Physics/Chem. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
M325is 0 Report post Posted October 6, 2008 sh*t I would charge $60/hr to go anywhere near a student. I would find it extremely boring. Most sporting tuition now days is about $60/hour. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jeddy 0 Report post Posted October 6, 2008 I had a tutor for 6th form Maths/stats and paid $15p/h(that was for a level 2 Engineering student). If you've got like a mathematics degree $30+ might be alright but i think that's sh*t loads when you can get really good students for $15-$25 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tire 10 Report post Posted October 6, 2008 Mine in 6th form was $40 an hour. He was top notch though, HOD maths etc. I think $40 an hour is the going rate for a quality tutor. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gus 5 Report post Posted October 6, 2008 ask for payment in blowjobs. say nohomo and its ok Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bravo 35 Report post Posted October 6, 2008 (edited) I couldn't do that to the Ministry of Education Gus. If I started taking blowies as payment you'd be trying to resit 6th form. And I don't think I want to be responsible for unleashing you back into the school system. I'm going to take $30. I won't get out of bed for $15. I don't have a maths degree, but did third-year maths papers as part of my degree, and was offered a spot in the mathematics honours programme which I turned down. I don't really want to do it, its a favour for my boss, and only for 4-6 weeks. Even at $30 I feel like I'm doing it cheap. It's not as if I have bucketloads of free time.
