He's cheap then ... we charge travel at a minimum of 1 hour.
Travel + 1 hour tuition =£34

If the students come to our home *we can tutor two in two hours. If *we have to travel then *we can only tutor one student in two hours thus *we are losing money. I assume Mr Wench doesn't major in Maths.  ;)







*By "we" I of course mean SWMBO

It is basically a standard school rate. That is what they all charge. If you charge more you won't get anyone basically. Still it comes in handy.

Another point is that we do NOT tutor Primary age. That has to be done at the child's home with a aprent in the next room and the door open! We only accept GCSE, A level and Undergraduates for private tuition. English, Latin, History. Of copurse at that age parents are well used to shelling out £35+ for driving lessons.
We do of course have a commission arrangement with other tutors for students that we cannot help (Maths, Science etc)

Used to have it as a proper business but not really profitable given the "thiness of the population here and the time one has to put into vetting others etc. so we cut it back to just Mrs S and a few "referrals".

 It was not unknown for me, in the past, to lecture to sales conferences and the like but the agoraphobia has put a stop to that.

£12 an hour for private tuition? We charge £17 ..... still I 'spose that is A level


Bloooooody hells teeth! eeek: ONLY £17?! eeek:

Young G jnr jas been having private maths tuition for 18 months now for GCSE @ £25 ph, and he only lives 'round the corner....the tutor that is, not G jnr.
I'm staggered how little you're being charged/charging.

Before Snoopy asks

If you have to ask the price you can't afford it  ::)

And for the two of us (Wenchy and LL) you'd probably have to re-mortgage, sell the car and 'the watches'  eeek:

It's what the market will stand mate. Fewer children around here and lower ambitions from their parents. Comes of having a thinly spread population ..... which is why we have to be prepared to travel sometimes and why we charge for it. Welsh roads are not, in the main, built for speed.
