Policy

Tutoring sessions will be held in a location of your choice. That can be a community location such as a school, library, church, or other public meeting place. I can also meet in the privacy of your home.

It is absolutely necessary that at least one parent or adult guardian be present with any minor student(s) during any tutoring session regardless of the selected location. This is not a "drop off" service. There will be no exceptions to this rule. If the parent or guardian leaves the meeting place during the tutoring session, I will leave also.


Fees

Fees are very reasonable, payable at the conclusion of each session. Basic fees are $12.00 per hour for individuals and $30 per hour for businesses and groups of 10 or more. The individual rate depends on the length of the session and the number of students attending:

Private Tutoring for ONE student
Hours 1 2 3
Total Fee $12$14$16$18 $20$22$24$26$28

Individual sessions lasting more than three hours are not recommended.

Get a group together and save! I will hold sessions with multiple students and you can split the cost. The hourly fee is easily divisible by the number of students. (No discount for additional hours per session. Number of students limited by size and availability of meeting facilities.)

Tutoring for MULTIPLE students
Number of Students 23456 78910 or more
Fee per Hour per Student $6$4$3$3$3 $3$3$3$3
Total Fee per Hour $12$12$12$15$18 $21$24$27$30

I will travel to the meeting place at no cost to you if the location is within five miles of my home. For greater distances there will be an additional fee based on $12 per hour of travel time from my home to the meeting place and back. Generally, my travel expenses would be about $12 to $25 for most places within the county and $20 to $50 for most places in neighboring counties. Student transportation is at your expense.
