How much does Varsity Tutors cost for students in Kent?
The amount you can expect to pay for tutoring for students in Kent depends on various factors unique to your situation. Some details that may come into play to affect the rate include the expertise of the tutor and the number of sessions you need.
As an example, if you are learning at Kent State University and want regular LSAT test prep sessions during your final year to get ready for exam day, the amount you will pay per session might be less than what it would be if you were to ask for just a few lessons.
