The final cost depends on:
Most teachers on Superprof offer a free first lesson so you can check if their teaching style suits you.
Mandarin has a tone sandhi rule: back-to-back third tones trigger a shift in the first syllable.
Take 小姐 (xiǎo jiě, "miss"): you'll hear "xiáo jiě" because the first tone shifts up.
The change happens automatically in fluent speech; native speakers don't think about it.
A tutor can train your ear to hear these subtle shifts and help you apply them instinctively.
