It's not too much but "it's much". Imagine after paying almost 200k for just one child's tuition you'll still have to pay extra 50k just for diction? If I spend that amount on my pikin, he better be speaking like Shakespeare after a week oh, hence head go roll!! 2 Likes 1 Share |

Jewessgratitud3: You failed to communicate effectively. You could have been considerate like collect #35 000. That way she help to market you since you're sure her child would improve. Thereafter you can charge whatever you wish. You needed a contact point man. Your attitude is bad sha. |

Iwell as for me I would suggest that you should have done your assessment first before billing the woman.. In this difficult era most parents go the extra miles to meet up with various very expensive schools fees for their children. Things are hard my brother that doesn't mean you should come cheap but this is extra lesson we are talking about. Have you ever thought about teaching students in the school as a part time teacher?, How much would you have changed for teaching 10-25 students in a class? Will you charge a child 50k? Anyways I believe you should know what to do. My thought though. I am looking for an honest person who is vast in freelance work on line to help me go on fiver or upwork. I need to do something with my skills please. |

How many hours will you work per month? What is your rate per hour? Multiply this and you can work out if you have overcharged or undercharged. |

Jewessgratitud3:Hey Sis, that's how these parents are. Especially the ones on the island, they can pay 400-500k for school fees that doesn't justify their child's learning only to end up looking for a lesson teacher to help the child learn what they already paid for. Well that's why we lesson teachers exist; to intervene in a child's learning challenges. I know the hard work I've put into teaching sounds to toddlers up to the reading stage but in all, I'm thankful it's been nothing but success cos it got to the stage that the school of child I teach tried to steal my scheme but God pass them. I have been getting referrals from parents cos of the progress reports. I've been in this craft for while now and I don't back down on my charges. If you don't mind, we could connect to share more ideas and experiences. 2 Likes 1 Share |

jaxxy: Lol... I don Taya ooo .. you say they may come back without the accent and it's true o. I remember some years ago, a woman abroad wanted her baby to join her in the UK after she's settled in so she said she needed a diction instructor to help polish the child's accent and this my friend that recommended me called me to go there. After taking the child for a month the mother called from abroad to speak with her and said she could no longer understand the baby again o. That she's now sounding like ones abroad that she will have to make her repeat what she's saying again and again lol... It's easier when they are just learning to talk but once they already have that strong Nigerian accent, its always difficult to work on it. I know this woman doesn't want her child to loose the little one she learnt during the just concluded session because now she's going to be exposed to the Nigerian accent again throughout this long break. What my former clients used to do is, they travel abroad every summer so the accent is still there till they come back and we resume lessons again. 1 Like 1 Share |

Jewessgratitud3: Where did you learn your British diction from? Were you born in Britain? I believe no one can speak a language with correct accent unless you grew up among the native speakers,. |

Abemy: The school fee is not only a determinant of the charges but also a determinant of what I'll go for. I don't do 20k home lesson. In fact, I stopped doing this a long time ago. My friend just felt since they are from a school I once taught I will be able to do it cos Im familiar with their method Plus I can just make small change from them. She didn't know they are not like my parents of old that pay well. Ah I gbadun those ones then. Things are expensive now Biko. something I did for 25k 10 years ago when the economy Wasn't this bad is what I'll now do for 20k in this economy. 1 Like |

I’m just curious, do you offer lessons in speaking, reading and writing native languages and are any of these parents interested in them? I can’t even speak mine but it would look very nice on my resume. Hmm. Nothing wrong with standard southern Nigerian diction as long as it’s spoken with grace and is grammatically correct (I know you said you teach reading too). Na ask I just dey ask o 🫣 |
