If you are teaching for less than 150 per hour, please raise your price.

Sometimes I deal with people who want to pay me 100/hour, despite the fact that I am a qualified, experienced, certified teacher.

The normal price for this type of service is in China is 120 to 400 per hour, and yes 500 happens sometimes too. In Kunming, 150 and 200 is normal at present, depending on the level of preparation involved. You may certainly ask for more than that if you think you deserve it.

But 100 sucks, China is not as cheap as way back in the days when 100 was normal.

If you are a qualified teacher, please don't ask for less than 150 for your time and work. Thank you!
