Tutoring for Baltimore students.
Blackmon Tutoring serves Baltimore students. Every student is matched with a tutor based on subject, grade level, and learning style, then meets on a shared digital whiteboard, the same process we use everywhere else in Maryland and across the country.
Baltimore is Maryland's largest city and a major seaport on the Chesapeake Bay.
Every tutor holds a bachelor's or master's degree, and many are certified classroom teachers. Several specialize in supporting students with dyslexia, ADHD, and other learning differences, in addition to standard subject tutoring and test prep.
What is MCAP?
The state assessment Baltimore families ask us about most.
Maryland Comprehensive Assessment Program
MCAP (Maryland Comprehensive Assessment Program) tests English language arts and math for grades 3-8, science at select grades, and end-of-course exams in high school for subjects like Algebra I, Government, and Biology.
Families across Baltimore and the wider DMV area (DC, Maryland, and Virginia) often look for tutoring that can flex between Maryland's MCAP standards and the slightly different requirements of nearby DC and Virginia schools, since many households sit right at the border of two systems.

When should test prep start before the SAT or ACT?
As a general guide, start SAT or ACT prep 12-16 weeks before a student's target test date, with weekly or twice-weekly sessions depending on the score gap and timeline.
