Tutoring for Manhattan students.
Blackmon Tutoring serves Manhattan 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 New York and across the country.
Manhattan is New York City's commercial and cultural center, home to many of the city's most competitive schools.
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 Manhattan 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.
