Hi Folks!

I was wondering how much you guys think I should charge for private lessons here. I have a CELTA-equivalent qualification, a university degree, and a year and a half of experience teaching. I was thinking of doing a sliding scale for students and professionals.

Any thoughts? Much appreciated.

Best bet is to ask other local teachers. You don't want to undercut the general market rate, otherwise all teachers lose: solidarity brothers and sisters!

It may also depend of the nature of the work and the amount of preparation involved, whether you are going to teach small groups or 1-2-1, amount of travel etc. I don't particularly want to teach unmotivated teenagers so I'd quote more for them, and wouldn't mind if I didn't get the work!

Possibly better to start higher, and then give loyalty discounts, than start low and try the difficult task of increasing rates.
