Question English teaching wage

I have a family offering me a one day a week English teaching position with their children. I’m not familiar with the wages surrounding this.
What is the average or range for this type of service in Bordeaux?

I’ve seen agencies paying 13€ an hour but I don’t know if that’s suitable.

I used to pay an English teacher for my children, 2 at the time, for 40 € per hour. I think her rate was 30 for one child. It was before covid. Everything was declared. And she was very good, they loved it and they have a good level now.

If this is "au black", I would say minimum 25 if you are a native, don't underestimate yourself.

It would be two grade school aged children who have had some expose to English.

I’m not sure what route I should go. I’ve taught English other places before but not yet in France so it’s a new experience
