Chicago Home Tutor
Welcome to Chicago Home Tutor where we use the most current research in education and psychology to provide your child with expert tutoring in the convenience of your home- in the city of Chicago and the suburbs. As a team of school psychologists and specialized teachers working together, we have the skills to help every student reach his or her potential. Our tutors have a variety of areas of expertise, and we consult one another to find creative, effective solutions for all of our students. We begin with a thorough assessment to uncover your student’s precise needs and skill deficits. We then design targeted lessons, constantly monitoring progress to maximize effectiveness and, when needed, alter our approach based on your student’s response to our lessons. Our graduate training in psychology has prepared us to work with diverse populations including students with ADHD, executive functioning difficulties, autism, learning disabilities, and emotional challenges. We also do psychological evaluations to help determine what services your student needs and can support you to arrange creative solutions for your homeschooling program. We can serve students on-site where they need us like in private schools and medical settings.
