What’s an arm and a leg to you? We found a great one on Wyzant.com for $65/hr.

There are also a lot of free tutoring programs available - BCC kids are running one where the kids tutor. Might work if you ur kid just needs focused attention and practice.

The usual price can go up to $100/hr.

We go to mathnasium. Shop around though because they dont all charge the same.
We pay $199 per month and can go upto 12 times a month( we do twice a week so 8 times a month) No long term contract.
We are doing in person but they have online too.

I would rather pay $300 for mathnasium and go 6xweek. That’s what McLean mathnasium charged and we can use it 6xweek.

I recommend mathnasium. It wasn’t until 6months in at 3 times a week until I saw a difference in my kid in math. Once a week tutor no matter how expensive is not going to change things and they may require you do homework during the week which is a struggle you have to deal with.

You need more “reps” than a once or twice per week tutor can provide.

We love Mathnasium of McLean.

We pay $60 per hour for our private tutor. Tried mathnasium before we found her and it sucked.

If you are ok with online format you can find a tutor in India (or other country) who speaks English for about $10-15/hr look on preply.com

for a sixth grader, ask a friend with a high school kid to recommend someone. Most likely $40 an hour, and your 6th grader will appreciate working with a cool high school kid!

WOW. Too bad dc doesn’t handle virtual education well. Very jealous of the parents who get to pay those prices.
