Certified, vetted teachers
Classroom-experienced New Jersey educators, background-checked before their first session.
Our certified New Jersey teachers work with Montclair students at every level and across every subject, from elementary reading and math to middle school, high school honors and AP courses, and the SAT and ACT. We support families at both the public and independent schools in and around Montclair, and each plan is built around your child's actual classes, assignments, and goals.
Montclair's elementary and middle schools operate as a magnet system: rather than strict neighborhood assignment, families choose among schools built around themes such as global studies, Montessori, science and technology, and gifted and talented. It is one of the district's real strengths, and it also means students arrive at Montclair High School from noticeably different academic experiences. Ninth grade is where those paths converge, and where a tutor can quietly close whichever gaps a particular magnet path left open.
Montclair High School organizes some of its depth into small learning communities, including a STEM program, the Center for Social Justice, and the Civics and Government Institute, a program dating to 1997 in which students run their own congress under a student-written constitution. Layered over that are broad Advanced Placement offerings and the state's usual checkpoints, the NJSLA in grades 3 through 8 and high school and the NJGPA in eleventh grade, so a Montclair transcript can look very different from one student to the next.
The college testing calendar looks like the rest of New Jersey's: PSAT in October of junior year, a first SAT or ACT in winter or spring, prep often beginning the summer before. What differs in Montclair is the range of starting points, so our tutors begin with a diagnostic and your child's actual coursework rather than assumptions. Sessions run in your home anywhere in town or online, scheduled around rehearsals, athletics, and everything else Montclair students take on.

Our learning-disability tutoringThe pattern matters more than the grade level. These are the readers we work with most.
What it looks like: Your child guesses words from the first letter or the picture, stumbles on new words, and avoids reading aloud. Spelling looks random. The teacher may have mentioned phonics or a screening result.
How our tutors help: Our tutors use structured, explicit phonics work: sound-letter patterns taught in a logical sequence with plenty of review. Short daily wins, a decoded word, a readable sentence, rebuild the confidence that guessing eroded.
What it looks like: Reading is accurate but slow and flat, one word at a time. By the end of a paragraph your child has forgotten the beginning, because all their effort went into the words themselves.
How our tutors help: Fluency grows with guided repeated reading: the tutor models phrasing, the student rereads short passages until they sound like talking, and expression gets explicit attention. As reading smooths out, comprehension usually rises with it.
What it looks like: Decoding is fine, but questions about the chapter draw a blank. Summaries retell random details. Inference questions, what the character felt, why the author wrote it, feel unanswerable.
How our tutors help: We teach comprehension as visible strategies: predicting, questioning while reading, summarizing in your own words, and finding evidence for answers. These are the exact skills NJSLA ELA passages test from grade 3 up.
What it looks like: Your child can read, they just will not. Every reading log is a battle, and screens win every time. You worry the gap between them and their classmates is quietly growing.
How our tutors help: Our tutors win reluctant readers over with choice and success: books matched to real interests at a level that feels easy, then a gradual ramp. A patient adult who talks about books like they matter is often the missing ingredient.
What it looks like: Reading has been hard since the start despite strong effort and good teaching. Letter reversals persist, rhyming was late, and a parent or sibling struggled the same way.
How our tutors help: Some of our tutors have deep experience with struggling readers and structured literacy approaches, and we match those families deliberately. We will also be honest when a formal evaluation is worth pursuing, and we coordinate with what the school is already doing. See our learning disability tutoring page for how that works.
