Start by getting clear on your student’s subject, grade level, and what they’re preparing for, whether that’s a DPS math unit, CMAS, an AP course, or the Colorado SAT.

Look for a tutor with experience in the student’s grade level, subject area, and school setting.

Private tutoring in Denver generally ranges from $30 to $90 per hour. Rates may vary based on subject, tutor background, location, and session format. Early reading or elementary math support may fall near the lower end, while AP courses, SAT preparation, and advanced high school sciences may fall near the higher end. Since pricing depends on the student, the best next step is a conversation with our team to talk through your needs and put together a personalized quote.
