Thanks for the input guys.. exceprt for this one ---> GMG? What was that for? 
That's a bit rude to say to someone. We are now in what we say professional 
levels unless you are still in college to give a responce like that. He is not 
asking for free but a paid tutorial. I think his company have project for him 
that he needs a crash course in Linux/Unix environment. And what he will gonna 
learn will be implied to the company he is working now.

So to sum it up..

Student = Free + encouragement (use Google)
Business = Professional Fee (Fair) + Support + encouragement (use Google)

Thanks again.

Regards,


Geruel

  GMG = Google mo g...@*o. Sorry for the term, but this was the term we used 
back when we were in college when someone was asking us about linux.

    Right lets teach them how open linux is... how easy to find these how to

    If somebody is wanting linux services that's the time we can give higher 
prices.

    Learning studying linux let it be free..

            I agree with Arnel it should be a minimal charge but teach him how 
to research on his own because its best to learn linux through experience. Have 
him install fedora or ubuntu on his personal laptop or desktop.

            Cheers,

              To me,  It depends on the purpose of the student if he/she is 
learning for personal reason charge it for free.  If your client is in business 
then you have to give a price like one half of the price of the certification 
centers.

              I learned linux for free,  my American mentor shared it with me 
for free now.  I am sharing it for free.  I am happy to teach for free no 
charge for the first 8 hours more than that then with minimal charges he he he.

              I suggest still in minimal charge.  If you're earning let say 
5hundred pesos a day in your job may be you can base on that.

                Hi Guys,

                Somebody is asking me to give him a private lesson on linux 
like some sort of private tutorial and he is willing to pay for it. I have no 
idea how much will I charge him? Any suggestions? How about the references or 
modules that I might have to use to make it easy for him? I learn linux 
hands-on from a live and working environment (50 servers) so I learned the 
basic and advance level at the same time.

                Suggestions and advices will be greatly appreciated.

                TIA

                Geruel
