The Tutoring School is an alternative, tuition-based tutoring program that helps high school students transition to and from a traditional school setting. With optimal learning flexibility and accredited classes, it serves students who:
- Have missed school due to an extended illness and are ready to pick up where they left off
- Need to advance certain skills (reading, writing, or math) to succeed in a larger classroom
- Prefer personalized one-to-one learning rather than a traditional classroom setting
- Are international learners and need to improve English skills to succeed in a larger classroom
- Unable to attend their current school but would like to eventually transition back to or get credit from that school
- Have personal challenges and want to start in a small setting before transitioning into larger classes
- Have schedules that prevent them from fully participating in a traditional high school
- Are unable to leave their home or apartment to come to school
The Tutoring School, a program within The Beekman School, operates virtually anytime, anywhere, and maintains a rolling admission throughout the year. It serves as a one-of-a-kind flexible option for students who do not currently see themselves as a match for a traditional learning environment or a mainstream alternative high school in NYC.
Students who would like to transition into our private school's more traditional environment can take a hybrid of classes in The Tutoring School and The Beekman School, and then enroll in all Beekman classes when they are ready. With this collaborative approach, students take a combination of Beekman and Tutoring School classes in a setting that helps facilitate peer interactions.
We develop alternative high school options to meet student requirements. Whether this means sending our tutors offsite or scheduling online tutoring sessions for our high school students, we are committed to providing a strong educational foundation.
