What the organizer is for

Safety first

Meeting a minor in an open or visible space, or with a parent nearby, protects the student and you. Many libraries and community centers have study rooms with windows for this reason.

The cost of travel

Fifteen minutes each way, four times a week, is close to nine hours a month. Grouping sessions at one place, or moving some online, can free that time for teaching.

Mileage and records

Business mileage may be deductible for self-employed tutors. The IRS sets the standard mileage rate each year; keep a log and check Publication 463 for the current rules.
