FAQs for finding reading tutors in Hercules, CA

Hiring a local reading tutor in Hercules, CA on Care.com will cost an average of $17.00 per hour as of June 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 Hercules 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.
