Rates
Each session is one hour. You can use it however you wish. For example:
- You need a little maths and a little chemistry for one session, and a focused session on physics for another.
- Your spouse, sibling, or friend needs some help.
- A group of you would benefit from a series of group tutorials.
- There’s an exam approaching and you need several sessions per week for a while.
Your tutor will travel to a location of your choosing at no extra charge.
Cost-Cutting Strategies
1. Purchasing bulk sessions saves on cost. For example, the Annual Package saves you $15 per session for a total saving of $360!
2. Group sessions are a good way to lower the cost per person down as well. Your tutor is happy to tutor any number of people in any given session. For example, a five-person group with the Full Semester Service comes out as $15 per person per session.
