[quote=Anonymous]Our daughter who is entering 3rd grade struggles a lot with math, and we are hoping to find her a tutor for the rest of the summer. Nothing complicated, just hoping that someone can help the basics "click" a little bit better for her. We asked the son of a friend who just finished his freshman year of college and told him we'd pay whatever the standard rate for this sort of thing might be. He suggested $30 per hour plus gas/travel time. Is this the norm? Friends had told me that they paid rates similar to babysitting rates, so I was surprised at this, especially since we're talking very basic math. The request to be paid for gas and travel time really raised my eyebrows, especially since we're not talking about a huge distance. Then again, we've never done this so maybe my expectations were off. Thanks for any feedback![/quote]
