Live Homework Help® for students Homework Help Illinois connects students in grades K-12 and adult learners with online tutors for live, one-to-one help in math, science, English, and social studies. Tutors are available from 2:00 to 9:00 p.m., seven days a week. Disponibles en español en Matemáticas, Estudios Sociales, y Ciencia, Domingo a Jueves de 2:00 a 9:00 p.m. You must have a valid library card from a participating library.

How it Works

Each student selects their grade level and the subject they need help with. The student is then connected in real-time with an expert tutor one-to-one in an online classroom where they can:

• Chat via IM (instant messenger)
• Solve problems using an interactive whiteboard
• Browse the Web together for educational resources
• Share files and print their sessions

Professional Tutors in a Secure Environment

Tutors are carefully screened and include certified teachers, college professors, grad students and undergraduates from accredited universities, and other professionals. Every tutor completes a rigorous training program, passes a third-party background check and undergoes an ongoing evaluation process.
