Try out Craigslist.com from under one of the links of cities near you.  Put out a free ad for an English tutor and ask your own price.  If you just want a college student, or recent college grad, you should probably charge $10-15 and hour.  Good luck.

Usually there are classes at junior colleges or adult ed for teaching ESL.   A tutor implies one-on-one individual attention.  One way to assess a resonable charge could be finding  out what the teachers are getting paid per hour by the school and charge a similar amount.   Your ability to charge should be based on two things:  what is the normal cost per hour to provide ESL and how well can your prospective students afford to pay for it.  If you balance these two, you should be able to arrive at a reasonable fee.   A second way would be to base your fee on what a voice coach, a piano teacher, or a tutor for math or English or science would be charging locally for tutoring.

Try...\n(1) The phone book  (Beware of tutoring companies! they are expensive!!!! I wouldn't pay more than $20 per hour!)\n(2) call the counselling office at your local college to see if they can reommend a tutor.\n(3) Look online.... go to yahoo, type in the name of your city and the word "tutor".\n(4) If you just need a few answers to questions, you might consider online tutoring or homework help through email:\nhttp://www.tutor-homework.com ($15 per hour)\nhttp://www.ineedahelpinghand.com (various tutors w/ various prices).\n(5) Depending on the level of math, you might be able to hire a high school student who is good at math to tutor your son.\n\nGood luck!

A place where you can get help cheap, or free is at you local public/private university.  Math Majors would love the extra money to help your son with fractions.  You could prolly pay 20 dollars per session.  Also I know some universities offer free tutoring.

Depends on what level you want to tutor at.\n\nIf it is high school level, approach the principal to the high school near you and talk to them ~ or the guidance office.  They will better direct you to who you need to talk too.\n\nIf it is college level, go to Human Resources of George Brown or one of the other colleges and fill out an application.

It sounds like he does have some knowledge. Whatever the issue is between you and the tutor, he does not want to be involved. He must know that his friend is tutoring your son. I would not be surprised if the tutor mentioned it to his friend.\n\nHe either does not feel that it is his place to get involved or he does not want to hurt his relationships with the two of you. Either way, it is best for you to leave him out of it.\n\nTake care,\nTroy

Check to see if the college she wants to attend has a surplus inventory.  I recently encountered one that did and students could buy used computers for as little as $25.  You would want to check with their computer services department.\n\nIf the college she wants to go to does not, contact a local large college or university and ask if they have surplus, and if so how she could purchase used equipment.

Been there done that.  A good start is to find out the previous instructor and what he/she had already organized and implemented.  Otherwise, a local community college will have just what you need.

I don't know where you live, but where I live, we have a community college that sponsors a special class that helps people like yourself get started in starting a small business, etc. Maybe you can look into colleges in your area to see if they have the same kind of thing there. Hope you get the help that you need and that you get to do this for you and your son...

The boarder fees amount to around 75-80000 , so its close by to what you can afford.

I found this site http://www.studentoffortune.com\nFrom the name it seems like it's geared toward students, but anyone can use it.  You have to pay for answers, but you can make money by answering others' questions.  I think its ideal if you have a question to ask, because it's pretty no risk (you see 20% of a solution before you buy it) and you don't have to pay anything unless you see an answer you want.  I've already made a few bucks answering questions, and got one of mine answered =)

Please tell me, are you in the U.S.A.?  Including your location will help us answer you better, because laws and opportunities vary and mentioning your area may encourage answerers from your location.\n\nIn the USA the laws  are such that the public school which cannot provide the appropriate learning environment may have the option to send the child (until 21 years of age if needed) to another public school in the county or an "approved private school" (at least that's the term in Pennsylvania, USA) and the public school pays the cost of tuition and transporation.\n\nIf your son has a specific diagnosis, you may be able to find the right public or private school by searching on the internet using the diagnosis for example "autism", "private school", "reviews", and your general location fro example "Montgomery county, PA"\n\nThere are schools and knowledgable & caring educators out there!   Your teenager is not the only one who needs special attention and structure.  There are also parent/guardian support groups on line and probably in your local area, ask the doctors or specialists you've dealth with or the area hospitals or libraries as groups often meet there.  Depending on your situation, you may find some ways to teach or support his learning at home with specifically designed learning materials -- ask his doctors or therapists for recommendations and since he is 16 you need to get him "on board" with the desicions, if he can help make some of the choices and work with you as a team he will be better motivated to work hard and continue to develop.\n\nAsk more questions about specifics as you need to, there are teachers, parents, siblings, and child advocates "listening" who understand your situation (I'm all of the above and still advocating for my adult brother and my teenager)  God Bless you!

It depends on who the tutor is. Like if u know them they might charge u alot cheapier than someone who u dont know. So my best advice is to get someone u know who would be willing to tutor you.

If you are having problems helping your son with THIS task, heaven help the poor guy. He better have qualified teachers, who can explain things to the students, as he sure doesn't stand a chance to have it explained again at home.
