Do you have a standard pricing system for your lessons? If so, please share the details here.
My pricing in general is a bit on the pricier side of tutoring, but that's because I am passionate about providing the best quality tutoring possible by giving personalized lesson plans making sure my students achieve their goals. If the session is in-person, then the price also includes my commute as well as making sure I have enough PPE and sanitation to ensure that both parties are safe from covid.
