How much does a math tutor cost?

Hourly price is only part of it. Here's how to compare options fairly.

Math tutoring prices vary widely with the tutor's experience, the subject, whether it's one-on-one or a group, and whether a company sits between you and the tutor. Instead of looking for one average number, compare what you actually get.

What changes the price

  1. Level: test prep and college math usually cost more than elementary math.
  2. Format: group lessons cost less per person, but you get less individual attention.
  3. Length: a 50-minute lesson and a 60-minute lesson aren't the same price per minute.
  4. Commitment: packages usually cost less per lesson, but they may expire.

How to compare two offers

Work out the cost per minute of one-on-one time. Then check for signup fees, minimum commitments, and how long you've got to use a package. Also read the cancellation rules, because a missed lesson you still pay for changes the real price.

How many lessons do you need?

It depends on the goal. One lesson may be enough to get past one topic. A semester course or a test with a score goal usually takes regular lessons over several weeks. A short consultation is the easiest way to get a realistic idea for your situation.
