<p style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 10pt;" lang="EN-CA">I need some information from all you art teachers out there. I
was approach many times to give watercolour lessons in my area. I have
already given some drawing and watercolour lessons but it was always to people I
know (read: no charge!!!). I have always hesitated about doing this at
large but I am thinking of starting in the Fall. Now for the hard
part, how much can I charge for the different type of lessons?</span><span style="" lang="EN-CA"></span></p>

<p style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 10pt;" lang="EN-CA">Private lessons: only one student in my studio (supplies not
included in the cost). I was thinking of giving either 2 or 3 hours (what do you
think is best?) lesson for a total of 10 lessons (20 or 30 hours).
<strong><span style="font-family: Arial;">What would be the average rate for
this?</span></strong></span><span style="" lang="EN-CA"></span></p>

not included in the cost). I was thinking of giving either 2 or 3 hours

<p style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 10pt;" lang="EN-CA">Group classes: 10 to 15 students. These classes could be in schools
as an after school activity, for the city or in retirement centers.
For the retirement centers, I was thinking of 2 hours maximum per lesson.
The supplies would be furnished by the center (I would give them a list).
I wouldn't charge the students but the center would be offering this activity to
their residents. So I need to now what is the normal price per hour that
teachers charge for these types of classes.</span><span style="" lang="EN-CA"></span></p>
