  • What do tutors charge to tutor elementary school age kids? TIA.

    We have had private tutors for our elementary age kid for several years. The rates have ranged from $55 (college student) to $95 (credentialed teacher) per hour. We currently pay $75 per hour (a retired teacher).

    Anywhere between $50 and $200 depending on qualifications, experience, etc.

    We pay $70/ hour for a very experienced tutor for our 6th grader. 

  • Rates for Tutors?

    Hello, can anyone suggest the going rate for a reading tutor? 1 on 1 Hourly rate suggestion. This is for a 1st grade student, emerging reader?

    Thank you for any ideas/suggestions.

    I have seen a range $50-$100. Our tutor charges $90 but she has a master’s degree and is a former credentialed elementary school teacher who teaches bilingual curriculum. 

    My son, now in 10th grade, started seeing his excellent tutor (all subjects) in 7th grade for $70/hr. I raised it last year to $75/hr. He used to come to our home but since the pandemic it’s all been online with zoom. A tutoring service/company we contacted initially was $110/hr., onsite at their office. 

    We have a tutor for our 11yr old 1 on 1 and pay $100/hr.  PM me if you want her contact info. She is a BUSD teacher and my daugher LOVES her (so do I!).
