How much should I charge?

I have a BS and am starting my PhD in the fall. I’ve been looking for some extra cash and a friend suggested I help her little sister with writing essays for college applications. I have experience working as a tutor in high school and as a TA in college. My question is: how much should I charge now that I have my Bachelor’s degree?

I am not sure if she wants in person tutoring (where I would charge hourly) or if she wants me to review and make suggestions to her essay (where I would charge per review). If hourly, I was thinking of charging $40-$50 an hour. If it’s per review, I was thinking $50-$75 for the initial review, and a decreased rate (maybe $30?) for any follow ups.

What would be a good amount to charge for this?
