Many factors can influence how much private homeschool teachers charge. For example, how many children you have, the subjects you want the homeschool teacher to specialize in, and their degree or years of working experience, can all play a role in how they set their rates.
How can I find private teachers for homeschooling near me in Portland, MI?
If you’re not certain how to find homeschool teachers, you can use Care.com to make your search for a homeschool teacher near you in Portland, MI easier and more efficient. To start, you can narrow your search to homeschool teachers in your general area.

What types of services do homeschool teachers near me in Portland, MI offer?
Homeschooling teachers near you in Portland, MI offer a wide variety of educational services. Some homeschool teachers that come to your house may provide full-day instruction and design lesson plans. Others may only come by a few times a week to teach a certain subject that the parent struggles with, such as advanced mathematics. Other homeschool teachers may choose to run small group sessions out of their home. It’s important to interview a few different candidates and to ask to learn more about services they offer.
How can I safely hire homeschooling teachers near me in Portland, MI?
While we ask all homeschool teachers listed on Care.com to complete a CareCheck (you can see which providers completed one by looking for the badge on their profile), this is just a jumping off point. To feel comfortable that the homeschool teacher you’re hiring is safe, we recommend you take additional steps to ensure safety. For example, you can run an independent background check and request professional references when hiring a homeschool teacher near you in Portland, MI.
What interview questions should I ask when hiring a homeschool teacher near me in Portland, MI?
When you want to hire a homeschool teacher near you in Portland, MI, it’s a good idea to interview a handful of different candidates.
