Fees
Five principles govern the remuneration of a personal engagement.
Preamble
One does not price intelligence by the unit. The Méthode Riviera engages over the duration of a transmission, and its compensation follows that logic — not that of the per-lesson trade in private tutoring.
The principles
Five undertakings of transparency.
Discretion on the figures is no commercial secret: it is the condition for the conversation about need to precede the one about price.
-
No public fee schedule
Fees are not advertised online. The compensation of a personal engagement is not compared as one compares a subscription: it depends on the pupil's class, the rhythm, the breadth of the follow-up, the travel, and the duration of the engagement.
-
An indicative range
To offer a benchmark without distorting the conversation, individual sessions begin at around one hundred and twenty euros an hour, and rise according to level and scope. Annual engagements are agreed on quotation and give rise to stable terms over time.
-
No registration fees
The initial educational assessment is complimentary. No administrative fee, no advance payment, no commitment prior to the first exchange.
-
Withdrawal at any time
The engagement may be ended at any point by either party, without penalty. Unattended sessions are reimbursed pro rata.
-
French tax credit
Subject to the qualification of the activity at the time of the engagement, sums paid may give rise to a tax credit for "services à la personne" (French CGI, article 199 sexdecies). Precise modalities are communicated case by case.
