The Best Tutoring in Brooklyn

We tailor each plan to your child and to New York City standards. Our tutors follow NYC DOE scope and sequence, class syllabi, and teacher feedback. We support work tied to local units, Regents-style questions, and state assessments. We track school calendars and grading policies in Districts 13 through 32 so sessions match what is happening in class. When helpful, we coordinate with teachers to keep goals aligned.

We tutor all ages. That includes elementary, middle, and high school students, plus college and adult learners. Subjects include math, reading and writing, science, social studies, world languages, and study skills. We also support test prep for SAT, ACT, AP Exams, and New York State assessments. If your student needs help with organization, planning, or time management, our X-Skills program strengthens those executive functioning skills alongside subject support.

Tutors are rigorously vetted and background checked. They are subject experts with strong teaching and communication skills. Many hold advanced degrees, and several studied at top schools in the area, including Columbia University. We start with a free consultation to learn your goals, learning style, and schedule. Then we match based on subject expertise, teaching style, and personality fit. Our Tutor Fit Guarantee means we will adjust the plan or tutor if the fit is not right.

Yes. We offer in-home tutoring across Brooklyn and flexible online sessions. Online sessions follow the same personalized plan and are recorded so students can replay key moments before quizzes and tests. Online tutoring makes scheduling easier and keeps learning consistent during busy weeks or travel. You can also combine in-home and online sessions.

You receive session reports after every meeting. We set clear goals, note wins and challenges, and outline next steps so you always know how your child is doing. We adjust the plan as skills grow. Parents often tell us the communication is a difference-maker. One local student said, ‘Michelle was helpful to me because she suggested I outline my points with supportive arguments that connect my ideas. She provided constructive feedback that helped me revise my drafts to make them more concise and easier for readers to understand my message.’

Yes. We are experienced with learning differences and tailor sessions to each student’s needs. We align with IEP or 504 goals when provided and use strategies that fit the student’s pace and strengths. NYC schools include many students with disabilities and English learners, so our approach is built to be flexible, supportive, and structured. The exact plan depends on your child’s needs and the goals you set during the consultation.

Families want support that builds confidence and fills gaps tied to local expectations. Only 30.5 percent of New York 11th graders met the SAT math college-ready benchmark, and several Brooklyn districts report graduation rates around 79 to 81 percent. One-to-one tutoring helps students master current classwork, develop X-Skills like organization and planning, and feel ready for major exams. We focus on real progress you can see in class participation, homework quality, test preparation, and overall motivation.
