Simple, honest pricing

No hidden fees. No lock-in contracts.

Every service is billed at a single flat rate of $95 per hour. There are no packages you have to commit to, no contracts, and no surprises on your invoice. We believe tutoring should be genuinely helpful, and if not, you do not need to be locked into a contract. If you're not sure whether this is the right fit, we're happy to start with a free 30-minute online consultation so you can get a feel for how we work before committing to anything.
