Thousand Acorns Tutoring's page on in-home tutoring in Thousand Oaks lists its prices with the city's schools and district dates.

What changes the price

  • The unit. Some prices are per hour, some per session and some per month. Sylvan's pages, for example, show a "per session" grid while their FAQ calls the single-session price "per hour," so ask how long a session is.
  • Commitment. Sylvan's per-session price falls with a 6- or 12-month minimum and with more sessions a week.
  • Who teaches. Conejo Valley Tutor's rates rise from high school student tutors to college graduates and credentialed teachers.
  • Group size. At Oaks Christian, a 60-minute session is $80 for one student and $60 per session for two students with one tutor.
  • Fees. Registration and materials fees, where listed, run from $30 to $199 each.
  • Travel. In-home tutoring may carry a travel fee.

What two sessions a week costs per month

Two sessions a week averages about 8.7 sessions a month (2 × 52 weeks ÷ 12 months). Using each provider's published prices:

Option Two sessions a week, per month Up-front fees
Sylvan, Westlake Village, month to month About $520 ($60 × 8.7) $195
Sylvan, Simi Valley, 12-month minimum About $435 ($50 × 8.7) $99
Camarillo Tutoring $429 $60 + $72
Oaks Christian, one-on-one, single sessions About $695 ($80 × 8.7) —
A tutor at Wyzant's Thousand Oaks average About $350–$565 ($40–$65 × 8.7, at an hour a session) —
Kumon, one subject $170–$190 per subject per month $80 + $30

Kumon's price is per subject per month rather than per session, so it doesn't line up exactly with the others. These are estimates from published prices; your bill depends on the calendar, holidays and each provider's terms.

Questions to ask before you pay

  • How long is a session, and is the price per session or per hour?
  • What are the registration, materials or enrollment fees?
  • Is there a minimum commitment, and how do you cancel it?
  • How much notice do you need to cancel or reschedule one session? Conejo Valley Tutor, for example, says cancellations with less than 24 hours' notice can be charged the full session.
  • Who will teach my child, and will it be the same person each time?
  • If the goal is a math placement, does the help fit how the district decides? In Conejo Valley Unified, see CVUSD's 6th-grade math placement.

Thousand Acorns Tutoring's policy: Cancel or reschedule with 24 hours' notice at no charge. The comparison of learning centers and private tutors covers how the formats differ beyond price.
