I asked my students and their parents to begin mailing their payments at
the beginning of the month. I used to give them a statement at the end
of the month to remind them it was due the next week. This took a bit of
time and I often forgot to give one-months go by so quickly) if a parent
didn't get a statement they didn't pay. I'm thinking of giving them a
coupon sort of tablet like some orthodontists do. I'm also curious about
what other teachers charge their students for a lesson. I have only a
bachelor's degree from University of Maryland Baltimore County and have
been teaching for 25 years. I currently charge $25/45 minute lesson.
Make up time is done by adding 15 minutes to 3 lessons. I teach in
Columbia, Maryland, a fairly upper middle class community. Am I charging
too little, do you think? Anne
