So I started tutoring a middle schooler. His mom approached me because I work at the local library where they're running an after-school program, and her children and nephew are enrolled. Apparently my boss sold me as a good influence on these kids, so this parent became interested in hiring me. I said I'll do a test run up to the next report card and ended it with that, so that we can talk about pay later.
After about 2 hours of working with the kid, I went home. The kid's pretty bright or at least he seems to know what's he's doing. I mean, I did teach him a few simple things, and he was clearly able to regurgitate the information.
Anyways, I'm wondering what to ask for my salary. The after-school program is my first job and makes a nice $10+ per hour. But, with tutoring, I have no idea what's a reasonable price to ask for because she didn't make any offers either.
