    If you have to go to their house, factor in driving time and expenses.
    I charge 100-150 per hour. If it takes you 20-25 minutes to get there each way, you're almost working three hours. What is that time worth to you?
    Also remember that when you are giving privates, you need to look at it as part of your regular work day. Try to do this on a weekday. If it's on a Saturday or a Sunday, sometimes it gets in the way of plans, and you have a responsibility to your clients. If you have a full-time job, after awhile, this can be a severe drain on you.

    a base range of 25-50 an hour depending upon your experience is fair for the first student. adding 5-10 an hour for each additional student is fair...especially if driving to them.

    It's simpler than you think.
