Teach-to-Learn

Although we are not currently running any Teach-to-Learn groups, all our one-to-one tutors use the Teach-to-Learn principle by asking the young people to explain what they have learned back to them.

Toby's Bursary Reversary

This pricing is based on Toby's chargable hourly rate due ot his exceptional experience, qualifactioins and skills, which is £185.25 pe rmonth. It reverses the concept of a bursary.

Toby reduced his full rate by 33% (to £123.50 per month), the minimum he felt he could charge to make his tutoring financially viable, and then adding on up to 50% for various equity privelages. Rather than just offering reductions to those who are oppressed by things like race-class-gender-health-LGBTQQ+, this shift in perspective puts the focus back onto those with more power in those areas.

There's a lovely piece of maths here, because if you reduce a amount by 33% and then increase the new amount by 50% you get back to where you started. It seems counter intuitive, but he 33% and the 50% make the same decrease and increase (respectively) because the 33% is of a larger amount, and the 50% is of a smaller amount.

Equity surcharges, are capped at a maximum of +50% (which would bring you up all the way from the minimum £38 per hour to the maximum £57 per hour). You don't have to tell me the individual answers, just your total equity surcharge %

We have three different income categories.

Under £28,000 household income, all Equity Surcharges are 0%

£28,000 to £40,000 household income, all Equity Surcharge %s are halved
