FEE SCALE


Payments may be made using any of the following methods:

  • 1. Drop off the payment in cash at my office (call ahead to make sure I'm in)
  • 2. Use online banking to send me an Interac E-Transfer (email money transfer)*
  • 3. To pay by credit card, ask me for a PayPal invoice**
  • *For Option 2, use this email address:
**Option 3 is offered for your convenience. However, since PayPal charges me a fee of 2.9% plus $0.30 for each credit-card payment, I will add a corresponding charge to your invoice.
Tutor

$40 per hour for one student or $48 per hour for two students, payable at or in advance of the appointment. Appointments that last longer than an hour are charged according to the actual tutoring time; for example, a one-student appointment that runs for an hour and forty-five minutes will cost $70.

  • ~ Includes ten or fewer minor corrections per double-spaced page.

Basic Editing: 4–6 cents per word
