Good luck! I'm only able to pay "professional" tutors (people with at least either a bachelor's degree or an equivalent combination of education and experience - - some of my people have master's degrees) $7.00/hour. Our student tutors are paid at $5.15/hour to begin (minimum wage), and then go to $5.30/hour if they go into a 2nd year of tutoring. But I do pay them for everything they do, be it training, tutoring, data entry, etc. David Cunningham Coordinator of Tutoring Pennsylvania College of Technology >>> [log in to unmask] 04/08 12:20 AM >>> At UNHM, I pay tutors for attending meetings and training,, reading anything I suggest prior to the next meeting, meeting with instructors, - basically anything they can show they did for the Learning Center. I agree with Richard that we must avoid exploiting their extra services, especially because we pay them so poorly. (This year the starting salary is $6.00/hour. I'm begging for a budget that allows me to pay beginning tutors $7.00/hr next academic year.
