FAQs for finding special needs tutors near you in Melrose Park, IL

The hourly rate a private tutor for a special needs child charges near you in Melrose Park, IL is $15.00 per hour.

Parents and guardians of special needs students understandably want to ensure their child is learning in a safe environment. When looking for a special needs tutor near you in Melrose Park, IL, we strongly recommend you take the steps necessary to feel comfortable regarding who you’re hiring. While we ask all special needs tutors on Care.com to complete an annual background check called a CareCheck (those who complete it have a badge on their profile), this is merely a starting point for your research.
