Real Data From Our Sessions

What Most Students Pay

Most students land between $20 and $30 per hour. Where you fall depends on your level, how specialised the topic is, and how urgent it is.

What The Rate Includes

There is no platform fee, no booking fee and no membership. The hourly rate is the whole price.

Included

  • A live 1:1 session on Google Meet with a two-way whiteboard
  • A human reading your materials before the session
  • Written notes on WhatsApp after every session
  • Homework, lab and project guidance within the session
  • A free tutor swap if the fit is not right
  • The founder’s money-back guarantee

Not Included — And Not For Sale

  • Completing your graded homework, quiz or exam
  • Writing an assignment for you to submit
  • Sitting an online test on your behalf

There is no price for these because we do not sell them, at any price. Homework guidance is included inside your session as learning support — a tutor shows you the method, you do the work. Read our academic integrity policy.

Pricing Questions

Because tutors are independent experts, not employees on a pay scale. Each sets their own fee based on their experience, how specialised the subject is, and how much demand there is for it. What never varies is that we tell you the exact number before you commit.

No. There is no subscription, no package and no minimum. Book one session or a weekly slot for a year — you pay for the sessions you actually take.

Test prep is priced at the College Prep or Undergraduate tier depending on your level and the exam — typically $25 to $30 per hour. See test prep tutoring, or ask us for your specific exam.

No. It is part of your tutoring session, not a separate product — a tutor works through your problem set with you and shows you the method. There is no standalone price because it is not a standalone service, and we never complete graded work on your behalf.

The rate can go higher — up to around $100/hr for genuinely rare or highly specialised topics, where the pool of people who can teach it well is very small. We will tell you the number upfront. If it is more than you want to spend, no hard feelings.

No. The hourly rate is the entire price. Nothing is added at checkout.

Yes — new students only, 30 minutes, a real tutor, a real session. Refundable in full with no conditions if you are not happy. It exists because we would rather you find out than take our word for it.
