12 more elementary tutors
Browse and filter all 30 tutorsDo you teach young children? Families at this level often look for one tutor who can help with reading, early math and homework routines.
What does an elementary school tutor do?
Elementary tutoring is less about raising grades and more about helping a child learn to sit down and work on their own. In kindergarten through 5th grade the content is light; the real obstacles are usually not knowing where to start homework, losing focus after fifteen minutes, or reading a word problem without understanding it. A good elementary tutor doesn't just re-teach what happened in class — they sit beside the child, watch where they get stuck, and fix that step. All 30 tutors teach online at this level.
When does an elementary student need a tutor?
Reading isn't fluent yet
The most common picture in the early grades: a child can sound out words but has forgotten the start of the sentence by the time they reach the end. It shows up in math too — many kids who 'can't do word problems' actually can't read the problem. Look for a tutor who works on phonics and reading fluency, not just a math tutor.
Math foundations have gaps
Place value, regrouping (carrying and borrowing), times tables and early fractions are the classic thresholds. If one is skipped, everything built on it wobbles and the child starts to say they 'hate math'. One-to-one lessons close these gaps quickly because the tutor sees the exact step that goes wrong.
Homework turns into a fight every evening
Many parents start looking for a tutor not because of grades but because evenings have become a battle. That is usually a routine problem: when, for how long and in what order the child works. A tutor can set up that routine first and the subject work second. Tutors at this level also teach these skills: study skills (2), focus & attention (1).
There are signs of a learning difference
If you suspect dyslexia, ADHD or a speech delay, general homework help can tire a child out without helping. Look for a tutor with specific experience in learning differences, and ask which age group they have worked with. A tutor is not a substitute for an evaluation by a qualified professional.
How much does elementary tutoring cost?
Elementary tutoring on WantATutor currently costs between $10 and $50 per hour; median $20, based on the rates tutors publish on their profiles. Half of the listed rates fall in the $15–$25 range. At 2 hours a week, that works out to roughly between $120 and $200 a month. The median elementary rate is the same as the high school median ($20). Rates at the higher end usually belong to tutors with specialist experience such as reading intervention or learning differences, or who travel to the student's home. Elementary lessons are often 30–45 minutes, so ask about lesson length when you compare prices. WantATutor takes no commission: you agree the rate with the tutor directly.
Elementary tutoring rates by subject
Hourly rates of tutors at this level, grouped by their main subject (subjects with at least 3 listings, live data):
- English: median $15, 14 listings, $10–$40
- Math: median $28, 8 listings, $10–$50
- Turkish: median $20, 4 listings, $15–$50
Tutors set their own rates and there is no commission, so the price on a profile is what you pay. Compare tutors at this level.
How long and how often should elementary lessons be?
For most young children, 60 minutes is too long. Two 30–45 minute lessons a week usually work better than one long one: the lesson ends before attention runs out and there's less forgetting between sessions. For online lessons, it helps if a parent is nearby for the first couple of weeks while the child gets used to the screen — then step back so the child talks to the tutor, not to you. Ask the tutor for a short weekly update: what was covered, where your child struggled and what to practise at home.
No tutor near you? Do online lessons work for young kids?
Finding an in-person tutor for a young child nearby isn't always possible, and online lessons are a real alternative. All 30 tutors teach online at this level. Online works well for elementary students when lessons are short, the tutor uses a shared whiteboard or screen, and they can see the child's face to notice when attention drifts. Tutors at this level are currently based in: Turkey (29), Netherlands (1).

How to choose a tutor for an elementary student
At this age, experience with the age group matters more than subject expertise. A great high school math tutor may struggle to explain carrying to a second grader — they are different jobs. On a profile, look for which grades the tutor has taught, how long their lessons are and whether they give parents feedback. Use a first short lesson to see whether your child actually talks to the tutor. If a young child won't engage, no amount of subject knowledge will make the lessons work.
Elementary tutoring: frequently asked questions
On WantATutor, elementary tutors charge between $10 and $50 per hour; median $20. Half of listed rates are in the $15–$25 range. Tutors set their own rates and lessons are often shorter than an hour, so ask about lesson length when comparing.
Two short lessons a week (30–45 minutes) is enough for most children. If you are working on one specific gap such as reading fluency or times tables, a few weeks at that pace often makes a visible difference.
For general content review, usually yes. For early reading, no — delays in learning to read are the most common and most worthwhile reason to start tutoring at this age. Keep sessions short and playful.
For the first couple of weeks, it can help a young child settle in. After that, step back: when a parent stays, the child tends to talk to the parent instead of the tutor. Ask the tutor for a weekly summary instead.
Yes, when lessons are short and interactive. A shared whiteboard, a camera on the child's notebook and a tutor who keeps the pace lively make online lessons effective even for early readers.
