It's always a difficult call when family and charging for certain things is involved. I guess it would depend on how close you are to those particular family members... I think typically when you have an aunt or uncle offer to pay your for something that they know nothing about (assuming that the do not) then I'd honestly say your aunt is expecing you to say "oh no that's cool, I'll just show em some stuff" .... HOWEVER, unless they've gotten really serious about the prospect of your little cuz learning guitar and looked into paid lessons........, then figured.... Hey, rather than pay a stranger... I'll just pay Brandon. If that's the case, then ask where/if they've looked into it and get a local rate then cut em some slack.... just so as to keep the peace, and not to offend anyone.... Definately though, I would first figure out how serious they are, versus just something to them is just passing the time. Hope this makes sense and helps... Excellent point of view. This is what makes it difficult. It's your time, your knowledge but it's difficult when it's a friend or a relative. In this cases the best is to follow mroberts thoughts. I have a similar situation nowadays and I charge him half what I would charge a normal private lesson. -------------------- My lessons

€20.00 per hour for 'family'. Haahahaah ! The old rule is: with the family you can eat and drink, helping each other, but don't do any business !! |

I agree with Cosmin but if it's his mother that's paying you, then he isn't sacrificing anything for the lessons. I'd go all Mr Miyagi and get him to do chores for you in return for lessons, if he can free up an hour of your time, he gets an hour lesson. Also put something in place to check he is practicing, there is nothing worse than someone coming back each week and still not progressing due to lack of practice (just ask any of my previous teachers!)
