Edison Tutoring FAQ
How much does Varsity Tutors cost for students in Edison?
The amount you can expect to pay for tutoring for students in Edison depends on a handful of variables. One factor that can affect the rate you pay is whether you choose to have your student meet 1-on-1 with their private tutor or whether you choose to have a few classmates join them for their sessions.
You may pay less per session if you meet with your tutor for organic chemistry throughout the entire year than you would if you met for just a handful of sessions to prepare for the GRE. Another factor that can affect the rate you pay is the tutor's experience level. You would probably pay a different rate to have your student study basic math facts with a college-age tutor than you would to study linear algebra or differential equations with a university professor. What you can definitely rely on is that our Educational Directors will work with you to find the right tutoring situation that matches your academic and financial needs.
