My son went from 1300 to 1800 in 15 months. He has a regular day job so doesn't solely rely on the tuition which made the $30/hr rate possible. My son has been taking lessons from bmcc333 at $30/hour for more than a year. There is probably better quality/price ratio out there but you may have to find by trial and error. And you know you won't go wrong with him if you can afford it. Heisman is famous so his lesson is deservedly offered at a price premium. But there is a language and culture barrier which you may or may not feel is a problem. There is some competition from East Europe where there are many strong players. Also, you have to factor in living standards.
However, if the coach is already living a comfortable life from other means, they may charge less out of passion for the game and to supplement their income.
If you have a kid who is taking ANY kind of private lessons, you know $1/min is the norm in ANY activity, be it tennis, swimming, piano, and the teachers who charge the $1/min certainly wouldn't be the equivalent of NM in their field. Assuming they are at least National Masters, they absolutely deserve that. I think a professional coach in the US has to charge between $50-$100/hr to make a comfortable living. This is quite an old thread so I don't know if a reply now would benefit anybody, but here it is.
