Tutoring seems like a great way for lots of LW people to earn extra money. Apparently at least one high end tutor earns $1000 an hour.

Interesting article, but that tutor is in a fairly small niche-- test prep tutoring for the children of very rich parents.

It's major that (when he tells the reporter how to solve a math problem), that he starts with teaching the reporter how to lower his panic level.
