Sorted by price per hour, cheapest first. Sessions run from 22 to 120 minutes, so the hourly figure is the only like-for-like comparison.

Curriculum detail is published only for the entry tier: the maths course page lists Grades K-2, 3-5, 6-8 and 9-12 as categories but expands topic detail for Kindergarten-Grade 2 only. The $22/class figure is also a published floor rather than a fixed rate, and no total course price appears anywhere — courses run as multi-session programmes, so the full commitment is obtainable only by booking a demo.

The advertised $15/class floor is only available on the 12-month commitment (104 classes, billed as a "$1560 coaching fee, billed every 52 weeks"); the 6-month plan raises the same tier to $17/class and adds a "$90 platform fee per billing cycle" that the 12-month plan waives.

The heavily advertised "$17.70/lesson" headline — used in page titles across their whole site — is not a general rate: the pricing page shows it requires the 12-month plan AND states "All prices apply to packages of 2 lessons per week". A 1-month term costs $21.90/lesson, roughly 24% more.

The "7 days free" trial is not card-free: their own free-trial page states "Billing details are required to activate the trial, but no charge occurs unless you continue past Day 7", and billing begins automatically on day 8 unless the parent cancels first.

Sessions are only "50 to 55 minutes of teaching time", and prepaid packs expire on a fixed clock — the 10-session pack must be used within 3 months and the 50-session pack within 6 months, so unused sessions are forfeited.

The advertised $56 is the bottom of a $56–$99 per-session band, and Learner's own site says rates “vary based on the tutor's experience and level of education, as well as the tutoring package” — so the figure you are quoted may be nearly double. The trial is not free either: it costs $25.

K12 Tutoring does not serve grades K-3 at all — their about page states coverage of "grades 4-12", so families of kindergarten through third-grade children cannot use it.

ClassDojo's own site quotes two different prices for the same product — “Starting at $17” on the Dojo Tutor page and “as low as $30 for ongoing sessions” on every subject page — and attaches a duration to neither, while stating classes are “25 or 55 minutes”. The $5 trial is 25 minutes. Until they reconcile that, the real hourly cost cannot be established before you book.

The virtual option is not universal and is not a substitute for teaching: "Not all Kumon Centers are currently offering virtual classes", and in those classes the child simply "complete[s] their Kumon worksheets at home while under the observation of Center staff" — supervision by video, not live instruction. Daily worksheets every day are required.

Prices are set by each teacher, not by Outschool, so there is no company rate to compare — listings run $10–$30 per class for anything from 25 minutes to 90. Outschool also adds a marketplace fee revealed only at checkout, behind an account, so the price on a listing is not the price you pay.

Because every tutor sets their own price, the advertised average is close to meaningless for budgeting: their own Elementary Math page says "$30 - 50 per hour on average" while the tutors actually listed on that same page charge $40, $75, $120, $200, $250, $320 and $349 per hour — roughly an 8x spread against a band topping out at $50.
