FAQs for finding reading tutors in Blue Island, IL

Hiring a local reading tutor in Blue Island, IL on Care.com will cost an average of $20.00 per hour as of November 2025. This rate may vary depending on the experience each candidate has, how often you will need them to help your child with reading and the age of your child.

You can also see reviews from other families in Blue Island that have worked with a reading tutor you're interested in.

The goal of hiring a reading tutor is to improve your child's grades and vocabulary.

Also ask each reading tutor if they are familiar with some of the goals the schools in Blue Island have. Finally, see how long they are willing to commit to helping your child with their reading tasks.
