Tutoring in New York
Tutoring for New York students, K-12 and college, matched one-on-one with a degreed tutor. Sessions are built around NY State Tests & Regents and your student's classroom curriculum, plus SAT, ACT, and AP exam prep.
Tutoring built around New York classrooms.
Blackmon Tutoring serves New York students, including families across the Bronx, Brooklyn, Manhattan, and Queens. Every student is matched with a tutor based on subject, grade level, and learning style, then meets on a shared digital whiteboard.
New York families come to us for everything from elementary reading support to Regents exam prep and SAT/ACT coaching for students applying to competitive colleges.
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 NY State Tests & Regents?
The state assessment New York families ask us about most.
New York State Testing Program and Regents Examinations
New York runs two separate testing systems: the NY State Testing Program in English language arts and math for grades 3-8, and the Regents Examinations in high school, subject-specific exams in areas like Algebra, Living Environment, and U.S. History that have historically been tied to diploma requirements.
Families across the Bronx, Brooklyn, Manhattan, and Queens often focus tutoring around a specific upcoming Regents exam, since a passing Regents score in a required subject is often a more immediate goal than the grades 3-8 state tests.

What New York families should know about tutoring.
Straight answers to the questions we hear most before a New York family books their first session.
What's the difference between NY State Tests and the Regents Exams?
The NY State Testing Program covers English language arts and math in grades 3-8. The Regents Examinations are separate, subject-specific high school exams, like Algebra, Living Environment, and U.S. History, that have historically factored into diploma requirements.
Which Regents exams do students usually need tutoring for first?
It depends on the student, but Algebra I and Living Environment (biology) are often the first Regents exams students encounter and the ones families most often start tutoring for, since both have historically been required for a standard diploma.
How does tutoring work for a New York student?
Your student meets their tutor on a shared digital whiteboard at a scheduled time each week, whether they're in the Bronx, Brooklyn, Manhattan, or Queens. Notes and practice problems are shared after each session.
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.
