FAQs for finding special needs tutors near you in Centereach, NY

The hourly rate a private tutor for a special needs child charges near you in Centereach, NY is $26.75 per hour. However, it’s important to keep in mind this is just an average and the actual rate a special needs tutor charges can depend on many different factors such as their years of experience and subject matter expertise.
