How much should one pay for live instruction?

I found a certified adobe instructor that is asking $150 for an hour of live instruction, she's going to help me edit my novel which is currently in pdf form.  She can upload my pdf into her computer and show me how to edit and export on my computer over Zoom

The reason I need to do this is my original formatter has gone missing, and I need to learn how to use Indesign for the specific task of editing it.   If this is too much or not ideal, where can I find live instruciton for something like this?

That's more than fair for personal instruction. That said, based on this discussion: Formatter for my book is unreachable. Help! - Adobe Product Community - 15368031, I doubt you're going to learn what you need in one hour.

 

If I were you, I'd hire a professional to get this done but good luck.
