Raising ESL Tutoring Fees
I recently raised my rates for private ESL tutoring sessions. I had put it off as long as possible, but with the cost of gasoline and the general cost of living increasing, I really didn't have another option.
Of course, I wondered how my higher rates would effect my ESL tutoring business and whether it would stop new students from contacting me. It didn't.
The students I had before my rate change are still paying the older rates. I didn't feel it necessary to increase these ESL tutoring fees.

Like instruction, I've found it better to tailor the costs to students. Translation? I used to charge less to adult education students than international business professionals.
Another solution that a good friend uses is to tutor groups of 3 students at a time and charge a group fee. In his case, he charged them $25 an hour for each of three students ($75 total) instead of $40 per hour for solo lessons. He was very satisfied.
