Recommended Tutors

tutor for writing and reading comprehension

**we really liked berit anderson 917 797 9872

** really wonderful tutor named David Stone -- problem is he is
on the Upper West Side so it's a huge hassle going back and forth from
Park Slope. However, he's been so helpful to my son -- both in
improving his writing skills and in helping his self-esteem. His
number is (646)329-4546.

7th grade tutor for math and ELA?

**We've used Judith Ferronbach, park Slope Tutorial for severla
years and we love her. She's on 12th Street in the SLope. Halped my daughter
with classes and preparing for Specialized High Shcool test. Also goo dwith
Spanish! Great with 7th grade math. 718-499 3899. Price is very reasonable.

Math Tutor for 7th Grader

** Hi, we have a great tutor that we used for the last two years in math. we have referrred him to both girls and boys grades 5 thru 10 and everyone has raved about him. His name is Will Petzel 917-679-4196

**We just started with a new math tutor about 2 weeks ago. He has a
Master's in education, teaches middle school, and my son really likes
him compared to other tutor's we have used. He also travels to our
home and I believe he lives really close to Brooklyn Heights.

Name is Alex: 917-595-6979 or 718-768-2383

we had our girl work with Judith at Park Slope Tutorial on Math, actually
it was way more math than English. She also has at least two others who are
great who are on her staff now. 12th street park slope, no house visits as far
as I know, but always worth asking

I highly recommend, Akim Osse. Here’s her contact info:

Even though my son doesn’t work with her now, he says he still uses a lot of the strategies that she taught him. She works with a number of kids in Park Slope.

Lisa Bowstead of Big Fish Tutoring is great. She is very patient and has a great rapport with the kids. She tutored my daughter for about a year and helped her through a tough time.
She is also a member of this site and mom to a teen herself.

Another tutor I would recommend, Jason Reed, lives in Park Slope but can
travel. He¹s a 21 year old college student, very smart (Stuyvesant grad,
National Merit Scholar, 800 Math and English SATs) but also very patient and
good with middle/high schoolers. He tutors math and does standardized test
prep -- SATs and specialized high school entrance exams. $25/hour.

and another family I know in the Slope used Michael Giles for SAT/ACT test prep and college essay assistance.  He's on 4th Street and can be reached at 718-768-2372 or michaelgiles@ earthlink. net .  I would recommend him.  I also know a few families in the Slope who went to Judith at Park Slope Tutorial; my kids went to her over the years for math tutoring and other things so my son wanted a change (and a male tutor) for SAT.  She's on 12th Street and can be reached at 718-499-3899 or 8409 or pstutorial@aol. com .

I loved using Thinking Caps Tutoring.
http://www.thinkingcapstutoring.com/
It was very a thoughtful approach to my kids' learning and test taking
styles.



----------------------------


I highly recommend Ed Antoine for SAT Prep. 


Ed has hired me to work on projects and to 
help administer his larger classes. I have 
had the pleasure of watching him work with 
students, and he is a top-notch test-prep 
instructor. 


----------------------

My son did the beta test of an on line class for Knewton, and it was
excellent.

One of the teachers at my daughter's school (Bay Ridge Prep) has a fabulous reputation for tutoring kids at MS 51. Her name is Sara Hutton. Her BRP e-mail addr is:

Both my kids have spanish tutors through central park tutors (they
are actually out of Brooklyn). It is a small very
personalized group of teachers/tutors. I have been using them for a
few years and have never been disappointed with anyone who has
helped my kids. They have a website http://www.centralparktutors.com
