So I am in 11th grade, and was asked to tutor a 5th grader on the violin. I have never given lessons before, and I am not sure how much I should charge. The lessons would merely consist of me reviewing the music they are given in orchestra.
Most student teachers that I know charge $10 for a 30 minute lesson.
