WAAY too low. I charged $25 fresh from an undergrad vocal ped course 8 years ago. (And my paltry two students raved about what they learned!) I agree with Randy. You should be charging $50 an hour. $40 at the ABSOLUTE MINIMUM if $50 feels uncomfortable to you. TinaO
Yes but where do you live? What are others in your area charging? Telling her just to double her rate without a clue as to what others are charging is not very smart. In order to get 50 dollars a lesson in this area you had better be something special and you had better be in Kansas City. Here in the capitol CIty...that would never ever fly. Especially from someone with a BA. How would you spring your new doubled rate on your current students and expect them to stay with you....I know in my mind I would be looking for another instructor.
