But how do you become a private tutor if you don’t know where to start. Check out about how I got started down below FREE of charge!
Determine your NICHE and Clientele
As a former Special Education Teacher I already knew what my NICHE would be which would be tutoring children with special needs. With niching down to only working with children with disabilities it cut out a lot of other people such as adults and children that didn’t have a disability. By niching down to particular subject or age group people will be more attracted to your services and know exactly who and what you serve.
Determine your Rates
The price on anything can either make or break a company. But when you know your worth and value of your services it’s easier for you to charge your clients. As stated in my video below your prices determine your clientele. Why? because you honestly pay for what you get. Why you pay for cheap services, cheap is exactly what you will get. So as a private tutor I would charge nothing less than $50/hours.
How to be a GOOD tutor
Being a good tutor is something that you must strive for when starting out. Providing customer support and services is key and crucial when starting out because in the first couple of tutoring sessions you want to make sure that the client is having fun to return back for another session and also you’re giving parents the results that they want to see. There are many different qualities that make a great private tutor and maintaining that motivation from beginning to end can be challenging but must be maintained before hiring others if you’re wanting to scale your tutoring business.
