Tutoring Session Cost Calculator
Estimate the total cost of tutoring sessions based on your hourly rate, session length, weekly frequency, and program duration.
Hourly Rate ($/hr)
Session Length (minutes)
Sessions Per Week
Number of Weeks
Materials Fee Per Session ($) (optional)
Discount / Scholarship (%)

function tutCalc() { var resultDiv = document.getElementById("tut-result");
var hourlyRate = parseFloat(document.getElementById("tut-hourly-rate").value); var sessionMinutes = parseFloat(document.getElementById("tut-session-length").value); var sessionsPerWk = parseFloat(document.getElementById("tut-sessions-per-week").value); var weeks = parseFloat(document.getElementById("tut-weeks").value); var materialFee = parseFloat(document.getElementById("tut-material-fee").value) || 0; var discountPct = parseFloat(document.getElementById("tut-discount").value) || 0;

// --- Core Calculations --- // Cost per session based on hourly rate and session length var sessionHours = sessionMinutes / 60; var tutCostPerSess = hourlyRate * sessionHours;
// Total sessions over the program var totalSessions = sessionsPerWk * weeks;
// Gross tutoring cost (before discount, before materials) var grossTutCost = tutCostPerSess * totalSessions;
// Total materials cost var totalMaterials = materialFee * totalSessions;
// Gross total (tuition + materials) var grossTotal = grossTutCost + totalMaterials;

// Weekly cost (net) var weeklyCost = (netTutCost / weeks) + (totalMaterials / weeks);
// Monthly cost (approx 4.33 weeks/month) var monthlyCost = weeklyCost * 4.33;

#### Formulas Used
Cost Per Session = Hourly Rate × (Session Minutes ÷ 60)
Total Sessions = Sessions Per Week × Number of Weeks
Gross Tuition Cost = Cost Per Session × Total Sessions
Discount Amount = Gross Tuition Cost × (Discount % ÷ 100)
Net Tuition Cost = Gross Tuition Cost − Discount Amount
Total Materials Cost = Materials Fee Per Session × Total Sessions
Total Program Cost = Net Tuition Cost + Total Materials Cost
Weekly Cost = Total Program Cost ÷ Number of Weeks
Monthly Cost = Weekly Cost × 4.33
