I would way rather sub, but IF you have a degree in the area you're tutoring then you can usually charge about $30 per hour for K-12 stuff, more for university-level courses. If you just have a general Education degree, slash ten bucks off that.

In my experience substitute teaching pays maybe $100 a day and you have to deal with five periods of disrespect and sometimes mayhem. Tutors around here get from 50 to 100 an hour - but that's in a relatively affluent neighborhood.
Look in your local paper for tutors and then call some pretending to be a parent looking for a tutor to find out how much is charged.

Have you thought about substitute teaching? It pays more, you have the advantage of being seen by the people who may hire you. Tutoring independently is difficult to charge for, look at your local colleges and see what they are charging for tutoring of students. Remember you may be dealing with people who may not pay you if they dont feel they are getting the results they want.

If you don't want to have to worry about finding students to tutor, you could always work for one of the online companies like Tutor.com. The pay is less than private tutoring, but it's a constant stream of students and you don't have to go out and find them.

depends on your location and student base-
$20-$50- stay fair and don't starting doing it for free- people will take advantage of it
