Hiring a local reading tutor in Lake Grove, NY on Care.com will cost an average of $27.50 per hour as of October 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.

Finally, see how long they are willing to commit to helping your child with their reading tasks.
