FAQs for finding reading tutors in Mattapan, MA

Hiring a local reading tutor in Mattapan, MA on Care.com will cost an average of $25.00 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 Mattapan 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 Mattapan have. Finally, see how long they are willing to commit to helping your child with their reading tasks.

When hiring a reading tutor, parents are likely concerned about safety.

With the help of Care.com, you can find the best reading tutors for your child. You can find tutors for reading at all levels. From learning how phonics work to improving reading comprehension. Once your child gets older, you may even want to switch to a writing tutor who can help them develop their writing skills alongside their reading comprehension skills.
