Private Tutoring Rates
Pricing for private tutoring ranges from $49 to $129 per hour depending on the subject, location, tutor, and situation (i.e., such as travel, required prep time, etc.). All quoted prices are base rates with discounts available for investing in packages of hours in advance. These discounts range from 5% to 20%, depending on the subject, test, and situation.
You are never “locked in,” and can receive a refund for unused hours (excluding a 5% processing fee). To provide more information on your situation and receive a customized quote, please fill out the form below.
All students are assigned a "Managing Tutor" who they interact with to share all appropriate details on the situation and their objectives in seeking a tutor.
Students are also able to connect via phone or our online platform with their likely private tutor for ~20 minutes to clarify objectives and approach before they are asked to pay for any tutoring sessions.
