I hope that you'll think my fees offer you a fair deal.

My standard rate for one-to-one private tuition in 2021/22 is £32 per hour. A tutorial doesn't need to be one hour long however; it is often suitable to arrange for three quarters f an hour, for example. If I am travelling to you and distances are large, I may need to charge for expenses, we can agree this beforehand. I do not charge for a first meeting; that is to get to know your difficulties and support needs and for you to decide whether I seem like the right tutor for you. If you pay in advance for several tutorials we can negotiate a discounted rate.

Payment can be made by cash at the start of each tutorial or by internet, mobile or telephone banking straight into my bank account shortly before the tutorial. Tutorials that you do not attend, or cancel with less than 24 hours’ notice, will be charged for in full, I'm afraid, unless there are exceptional circumstances and I agree to waive the charge. This would be exceptional.

All tutorials are arranged by negotiation between us, there is no commitment on either side to any number of tutorials. Either of us can terminate the arrangement at any time. And if everything works out well, there will come a time when you no longer need tutorials. It is to be hoped that we can mutually agree when we have reached this point.
