Schools we support in Montclair, NJ

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 tutoring

How we support different learners

Every match is made personally by our Director around the specific profile, not a generic label.

Reading differences and dyslexia

Reading differences and dyslexia

What it looks like: Reading has been hard from the start despite effort and good teaching. Your child avoids reading aloud, spelling looks unpredictable, and homework takes triple the time it should.

How our tutors help: We match these students with tutors experienced in structured, explicit, multisensory reading work: sounds and patterns taught in sequence with constant review, at a pace that protects dignity. Progress notes after every session keep you and the school on the same page.

ADHD and executive function

ADHD and executive function

What it looks like: The ability is obvious, the output is not. Assignments vanish between backpack and portal, long-term projects start the night before, and study time produces motion without traction.

How our tutors help: Our tutors coach the systems alongside the subject: planner routines, work broken into visible steps, timers and checkpoints that make effort produce results. The subject help gets the grade up; the systems keep it up.

Math learning differences

Math learning differences

What it looks like: Number sense never solidified: quantities, facts, and procedures slip away between sessions, and math homework ends in frustration for everyone at the table.

How our tutors help: Tutors slow math down to concrete-first: objects and drawings before symbols, one skill secured before the next, constant gentle review. Small honest wins, stacked weekly, rebuild both skill and self-belief.

Working with the IEP, not around it

Working with the IEP, not around it

What it looks like: You have a plan full of accommodations and goals, but tutoring options either ignore it or treat it as someone else's job. Nothing connects.

How our tutors help: Share the IEP or 504 and our tutors use it: same accommodations at the table, session work aligned to the plan's goals, and with your written permission, direct communication with the case manager so everyone pulls in one direction.
