Monthly tutoring plan

Count paid teaching time after cancellations. Plan for prep and admin when deciding how many hours you can teach.

How to work out your hourly rate

Add your monthly income goal and monthly costs. Divide by your expected paid hours, then divide by the share of each payment you keep after percentage fees. Round up to two decimal places.

Worked example

For an income goal of 2,400, costs of 300, 60 paid hours and a 3% fee, divide 2,700 by 60 × 0.97. The hourly rate is 46.40 in the currency you entered.

For a shorter lesson, multiply the hourly result by the length of the lesson in hours. A 45-minute lesson at 46.40 per hour costs 34.80.
