Starting out, our instructors typically make an average of $22.50/hour. Keep in mind, your level of compensation will increase the more students you have on your schedule.

Here's how it works:

Your Base Rate = $16.00

Your Semi-Private Class Incentive (2 on 1 ratio) = $1.50

Max Rate (Base rate + up to 3 Private Class Incentives per hour) = $25.00

And wait, there's more!
In addition to these class incentives above, we also offer a lesson bonus program. If you achieve a specified renewal percentage for the month, you have the opportunity to earn up to an additional $4.00 per hour worked.
