How much money should I ask for for private speech therapy?

Question

I have recently been asked to cover maternity leave for a speech pathology position in a private clinic. I currently work in the schools and will be doing this work in the evenings and on Saturdays. I have a meeting with the clinic owner in a week and have no idea what to ask for. Thanks for your help!

Answer 1

I paid 95.00 an hour for my sons speech therapist, but this woman did not work with a clinic or school system.  I would take into consideration who your clients are and go from there.  Of course if it's just the clinic paying you, I would go for as much as possible.

Answer 2

Well, I would think between 30 and 50 dollars an hour. God bless you.

Answer 3

You could ask other in that field around you and see what they are getting.
