terryblyth Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 I'd have a chat with the MU - they set a standard minimum rate which I don't think is unreasonable. You could also just try asking what other people in your area charge, and gauge your prices on that. I believe the MU are sorting out (finally) their teachers section, which would be worth joining for help in that area, child protection etc. Oh, and you get a diary that is in a garish colour, and a magazine that you won't want to read four times a year.

hogman Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 I charge 17.50 per 50 mins and the students come every 2 weeks however if the student is under 13 you are best of 30 mins a week every week Hope this helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
