Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Chicago Home Tutor connects families with highly experienced educators who provide personalized, one-on-one instruction in homes and other comfortable learning environments across the Chicagoland area. Our tutors are certified teachers and specialists who support students in reading, writing, math, and executive functioning — helping them build skills, confidence, and independence.
We work with a wide range of learners — from general education students who need extra academic support or enrichment, to those with specific learning differences such as ADHD, dyslexia, autism, or executive functioning challenges. Our individualized approach ensures that every child — whether advanced, struggling, or somewhere in between — receives exactly the level of guidance they need.
Every tutor at CHT is a career educator with classroom experience — not a college student or short-term tutor. We use evidence-based methods like Orton-Gillingham and Wilson for reading, and we specialize in developing executive functioning skills. Our goal is not just better grades, but calmer evenings, confident students, and families who feel supported through every step of learning.
Yes. Our certified teachers provide instruction in math, reading, and writing at all grade levels. We also offer English as a Second Language (ESL) tutoring and support for homeschooling families. Each lesson is customized to fit your child’s goals, learning style, and curriculum — so progress feels both achievable and lasting.
Supporting students with learning differences is one of our greatest strengths. Our tutors use research-based, multi-sensory methods such as
Orton-Gillingham and Wilson tutoring, along with
ADHD-focused and
Autism-specific strategies. We also teach
Executive Functioning skills such as organization, time management, and planning — creating structure, confidence, and success across all subjects.
Executive functioning refers to the mental skills we use to plan, focus, and complete tasks. Our coaches help students strengthen organization, prioritization, and follow-through — skills especially helpful for children with ADHD or executive functioning deficits. We teach practical tools for goal-setting, time management, and self-regulation that carry over into school, home, and life.
Most tutoring happens at home — where students feel comfortable and focused. However, we also meet students in alternate settings such as libraries, schools, or medical environments when needed. Our goal is to provide tutoring in the location that works best for the student’s comfort and success.
Each family begins with a detailed consultation with our Tutor Manager, who learns about the student’s history, personality, and academic needs. Based on this conversation, we carefully select the tutor best suited to your child’s subject area, grade level, and learning style. This thoughtful process ensures the best possible fit and strong working relationship from day one.
After your initial consultation, we take time to carefully review your child’s information and select the right tutor. Because we prioritize quality matches and personalized planning, starting sessions typically takes one to two weeks. This ensures a strong foundation and the right fit for long-term progress.
We serve students from early elementary through high school. Subjects include reading, writing, math, science, and test prep. We also provide English as a Second Language (ESL) tutoring and homeschool support. Whether you’re searching for a math tutor in Chicago, a reading specialist, or comprehensive home tutoring, our educators adapt lessons to each student’s individual needs.
Every child learns at their own pace, but many families report a boost in confidence and less resistance to schoolwork within just a few weeks. Measurable academic gains typically emerge after a few months of consistent support.
Tutoring is an investment in your child’s confidence and long-term success. Our rates start at $109/hour, with final pricing depending on factors like session frequency and your child's specific goals. Your free consultation will include a tailored plan and a precise quote with no obligation.
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are certified special education teachers with extensive experience working with IEPs. We align our instruction with your child’s IEP goals to ensure a coordinated plan that supports their confidence and independence.
