How much does a language tutor cost (per hour) in your country? I was wondering how much a language tutor costs in your country? In my experience in China, a Chinese language tutor can cost from 30 RMB (~4 USD) to 150 RMB (~20 USD). I think in the US, language tutors can cost roughly 10 USD to 50 USD (or more). What are the rates like in your country?
