Maybe a Starbucks gift card, but not a card to Target or anything like that. That seems to imply, "We think you're poor!" Or at least, it would have to me.


Mostly agree, but I would never say no to a Target gift card

Save your money for teacher gifts. They are the ones handing out grades.

Depending on the tutor I either do something chocolate or I do an Amazon gift card in the $25 range.

Gift card? Cash? What's an appropriate amount that's not too little or too much?
