Executive Functioning Tutoring
Designed to be applied across school subjects, 4th-12th grade students develop strategies that enhance their executive functioning skills. By honing skills such as time management, attention, and self-regulation, students improve their reading comprehension and problem-solving abilities, essential for tackling complex texts and mathematical concepts. Additionally, our tailored approach addresses organizational skills, fostering better planning and outlining abilities that translate directly to essay writing, studying, and test-taking abilities. With a focus on flexible thinking and perseverance, students are equipped to overcome challenges in all academic areas, ultimately leading to success and confidence in their studies.

Subject Specific Tutoring
Our subject-specific tutoring addresses 4th-12th students' weaknesses in a class (e.g., reading, writing, math, or science) while integrating executive function support. Through comprehensive assessments, we identify individual learning styles and areas for growth, ensuring personalized programs tailored to each student's needs. Our experienced educators collaborate with students to develop strategies that enhance executive functioning skills like time management and attention, facilitating improved performance across subjects. Weekly progress updates keep families informed, fostering continuous collaboration.

How it Works?
Online Tutoring from any US state. In-person tutoring is available through home-visits or at a public library in Manhattan, Brooklyn, and Queens. Learn more about each step of the process below:
1. Assessment & Intake
Instructors review in-take survey & information gathered from parents to begin crafting an individualized program, followed by a comprehensive assessment to collect information about the student's learning style, strengths, and areas for growth.
2. Matching Process
Carefully match students with educators best suited to their individual needs, ensuring a personalized and effective learning experience. Matching is also influenced by student’s scheduling preferences, as well as their availability for in-person or remote.
3. Individualized Support
Instructors work as a team to regularly adapt the student’s tailored programming, which ensures specific learning challenges addressed by building on existing strengths. An addition to the assessment, programming is informed information shared by parents, the school, and other professionals in the student’s life.
Instructors share weekly progress updates, providing insights into your child's academic journey, allowing continuous collaboration and adjustment.

5. Team Collaboration & Synthesis
Curiosity NYC frequently adapts student programming to address specific challenges and build on existing strengths, incorporating grades and other reports into our evaluation process. To ensure student programming is regularly evaluated and adapted, data and academic plan is initially shared with parents. Then, their student is assessed again to track growth and evaluate/adapt programming.
