Frequently Asked Questions
RATES AND SERVICES
I offer one-on-one tutoring for $95/hour, in my office. I do not make house calls. I also work in groups of two or three kids at a time, where all of them are studying the same subject matter. Generally, I work with groups of two or three only if the families come to me with a specific group already in mind. I do not try to put the groups together myself. This is because I have found that groups only work well if the group consists of kids who feel comfortable working together, and I hardly ever have enough information to put that kind of group together myself. Please see the last paragraph of “My Approach to Tutoring” for a fuller discussion of the one-on-one versus group tutoring. The rate for group tutoring is $60/hour per student.

CANCELLATION POLICY
If you need to cancel your appointment, you must give me 24 hours notice (more than 24 hours is even better) or you will have to pay the full amount, unless I can fill the space with another student on short notice. I often do have students waiting in the wings for a last minute cancellation, so if you need to cancel, it is best if you let me know as soon as possible, to maximize the chance that I can fill the space. The one exception to the 24 hours notice requirement is in the case of illness or injury. I actually do not want kids coming to my office when they are sick or injured, so I don't charge for cancellations under those circumstances.
