Teenager offering maths tuition… fee?

[00Namechange00]

Hi,

my year-13 DC is in sixth form and about to start offering maths tuition to a year 11 student. We are in South London and no idea how much the hourly rate should be.
what is the average rate for a sixth former giving maths tuitions? Doing maths at a-level and applying for a maths BSc at uni next year.
thanks!

I live out of London so rates might vary but for context I pay my cleaner £20ph and a reformer Pilates class is about £30- don’t know how that pricing compares to your area. Oh and my 16yo charges £7.50 an hour for babysitting. So that’s the financial context.
I don’t know about 6th former tutors but I pay between £20 and £30 an hour for one on one tuition in science (MIT grad), English (ex head of dept) and Spanish (native speaker but not teacher). That said, small group 11+ tuition was about £25 per session.

My son charges £20 ph for a friends son, both are happy with the arrangement

I would say £20 an hour. After he has finished A-Levels and at university the rate jumps dramatically from £25-40/hr.

£20-25 an hour but more when they are at university. How much is a qualified tutor? I would work back from that.

My son did this whilst doing his A levels a few years ago and charged £18 an hour. My daughter is doing it now and charging £22.50 an hour

im a teacher an I’ve tutored.

Id say go low to begin with. £20ph. it’s his first
Experience and the price should reflect that, he can also ask for feedback to improve
his practice. Once he has references etc he can up his price with confidence :)

I pay £90 an hour for my daughter’s tutor which is serious £££. BUT he is maths royalty in education circles.

toadstool32 may i ask where you find a supertitor?

super tutor!

My DD (Year 11) set her rates at £25/hr and offered a discounted rate of £20/hr to her first two clients.

She young but very good at maths and has a talent for teaching others.
It's working out well. She's in demand from parents of Year 11 and year 10 students.

Many thanks, everyone. I know that in this area an average tutor (not a top one) would charge around £45/50ph for maths so my son will try for £25 and negotiate down to £20 if needed.

Ah afraid not it would be too outing.

It’s £50-65 per hour for a tutor here. I think anyone starting out will have to go very low to build up a reputation and client base. I’d be very hesitant about a teenage tutor unless it was someone I knew or knew of.
