How come you are not using the British accent to write here? The question is. Can you really do the job? 2 Likes 1 Share |

Jewessgratitud3: In other words, rich Nigerian parents are now preparing their children for further education in Britain. If not, what is the hassle for British diction for Nigeria's children? Well, it suits Britain good or bad. Britain created a monstrous country through piling up diverse ethnic and religious groups together knowing full well that such a country must fail at the long run. 2 Likes 1 Share |

litaninja: Methinks, British diction is about equipping a child to speak English with British accent. That's what we get from a country officially known as the poverty capital of the world. A failed country whose leaders share cheap cash from crude oil among the ruling elites, and now depend upon most expensive British universities for university education for their wards. 2 Likes 2 Shares |

Charge a minimum of N75,000. N25,000 per day for each child is good enough because of the situation of things in the country. However, 25% discount should be applied for the next sibling. You must never undervalue yourself! 2 Likes 2 Shares |

Your charge is decent, but for months now everyone has been on the edge. I am forced to slash the price per word of my content writing services dramatically, seeing that AI and ChatGPT has almost vapourised the demand for original words. Just last week, an esteemed client needed a PowerPoint presentation to be delivered in 24 hours. When I gave her the quote for the express delivery, she flipped and I have not heard from her since. Focus on putting your name out there first. 2 Likes 1 Share |

By your own account ... you are overcharging. In 2014 you were charging N25K ... was it for 3 days a week? You now want N50K .. a 100% increase. The school charged N95K in 2014 ... for 5 days a week and you are guessing they raised to around N150K ... which is just over 50% increase... and that is for multiple subjects. Can you really justify your massive increase? I'm not sure what you teach .... sounds? .. do you mean phonics? And a British accent..... really? I'm guessing you lived in the UK ... was there when a teenager or before for you to have a local accent. In such a case the accent you teach will be for a certain part of the UK. Even so ... thise children cannot learn a foreign accent while in Nigeria. Many of our celebrities speak with "British and American accents " and impress the locals but sound very stupid to the foreigners. It's your hustle... providing a service that's in demand... but chop small small and not trying to swallow everything all at once. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Op, do you mean, 1. 50k for a month. @3 times a week. 2. 50k weekly @3times ie 50k per week. 3. 50k @3 times weekly ie 150k per week. If number 1, Then it is quite reasonable considering the state of the country. Usually those special teaching is done for a fixed tenure, Eg few months till there is improvements on the child. A premium is therefore charged. Depending on the area and the general fees, also what you charged 10 years ago, 50k is even undercharging. Digressing abit, Trekking or transportation is really an issue for us in naija based on economic realities. A lot of folks need to have other means aside cars. I mean motorbikes, bicycles etc. Bicycles for movement within miles of location. Eg someone lives in gowon estate and workers at shasha. Motorcycles for those that stay further. When you then have to go far, eg shasha to oshodi, Surulere, you use bus. Weekend, you use your car for family outings or goodtime. Hmm, I have forgotten the social stigma we love so much. Forgotten that different task force, local government officials, agberos etc will harras you for different document for the motorcycle and when popular, bicycles. Even the cost of motorcycle I hear is about t 500k now, tokumbo bicycles over 70k. Wahala wahala. 2 Likes 1 Share |

I had an experience with a particular girl back then in 2013 during my teaching days,her own case na Dundee Utd. Everything U ask her, d response will be BEENII (Meaning Na so i.e in yoruba) even her name! All the best ooooo but d pay isn't much considering the situation in d country. Teaching is not an easy job bro because it involves continuous talking thereby run out of saliva. Some of the parents know that it's not easy but don't want to admit it when negotiating. 1 Like 1 Share |
