At CATES, we’ve seen it all, and whether you need subject tutoring in NYC or online homework help from anywhere in the world, we come ready to provide the tools you need to achieve. We offer in-person academic support to New York City students across Brooklyn and Manhattan and virtual support to students globally via Zoom.
WE TUTOR STUDENTS IN:
We help students across pre-K, elementary school, and middle school develop core competencies in reading, writing, and math, as well as particular school subjects.

With a mind to producing college-ready students, we emphasize the development of core skills including critical thinking, reading, writing, and math, and we have developed custom extension programs to foster deeper learning and intellectual development.

How does online tutoring work?

With a decade of virtual tutoring experience under our belt, our NYC tutors can provide families with a seamless experience, whether through Zoom, Skype, or another platform.
How do CATES sessions differ from the remote learning solutions offered by my child’s school?
Unlike most remote learning programs offered by schools, virtual tutoring sessions at CATES are conducted one-to-one to ensure that your student thrives with individual attention and a personalized instruction strategy. Sessions are targeted specifically to each student’s priorities and adapt to meet evolving educational needs.
Our online tutors practice CATES’s holistic methodology: as well as academic concepts and learning strategies, sessions focus on the social, emotional, and physical factors that drive performance. And before we match you with a tutor, you can arrange a free 15-minute video chat to find out more about their teaching style and make sure it’s a great fit.
