Have you used a tutor personally, or for your child?  What did you look for when hiring them?  Did you pick an individual or a company?  How much were you willing to pay?

Have you tutored before?  What did you charge?  How did you advertise?

I'm thinking about maybe getting back into it.  Haven't decided for sure.  Depending on the grade and subject I might need to brush up a bit first myself!  I already have one parent I know that would pay me.

Does anyone have experience with tutoring or similar school intervention?  I don't know much about Oxford & Sylvan tutoring.  I have a bit of experience with a private tutor, but I'll say that I'm not blown away by it.  What options exist?  What works?  Anyone know of an "ON-switch" for my kid?
