Making tutoring services more accessible to students with dyscalculia.

At NYCTutoring.com, our mission is to help everyone in New York City, regardless of age, background, skill level, or disability, make the most of the educational opportunities available to them in the Big Apple. We hire passionate and experienced private tutors in a wide range of fields, allowing the ambitious students of NYC to pursue educational aide in just about any subject they desire. We personalize our lessons to ensure that they’re maximally effective for each individual student’s needs, goals, and circumstances—even if they struggle with learning differences, such as dyscalculia.

Dyscalculia is a learning disability that affects one’s ability to understand and process numbers and numerical information, including how to calculate numbers and understanding mathematical facts. It’s sometimes colloquially, albeit misleadingly, referred to as “math dyslexia,” although dyscalculia operates entirely differently from dyslexia. An estimated 3% to 6% of the population suffer from dyscalculia, making this disorder quite common—yet few interventions exist for the condition, and teachers are generally not trained to provide instruction tailored to students with dyscalculia. We at NYCTutoring.com, however, have put together a team of experienced dyscalculia tutoring experts to help students with dyscalculia all over NYC. Contact us today to learn more about how we can help your student reach their academic goals.

Tailor-made private lessons for students with suffering from dyscalculia.

Students with dyscalculia struggle with mathematics and calculations, including difficulties identifying from a brief glance how many objects there are in a small group or adding numbers in a column format. These difficulties do not extend to other areas of life, and some students with dyscalculia perform exceptionally well in writing and reading. Dyscalculia does not affect a student’s ability or desire to learn—they simply require specialized guidance in mathematical domains. Our tutors are experts in dyscalculia and know how to guide students with the disorder—indeed, with specialized and compassionate guidance, students with dyscalculia can improve their mathematical performance and dramatically enhance their confidence.

Dyscalculia presents itself in different ways, so no two students with dyscalculia are the same. The severity of your student’s dyscalculia, as well as the specific areas they struggle the most with, will affect the types of interventions that are most effective. Our tutors carefully design their lesson plans to suit your student’s individual needs and circumstances, taking into account their goals and interests to devise the most appropriate lessons for them. We can adapt alongside your student, adjusting our approach and incorporating your requests to ensure the most effective and fruitful tutoring experience for your student with dyscalculia.

Dyscalculia-tailored tutoring services anywhere, anytime in New York City.

Our dyscalculia tutors are eager to help your student thrive in mathematics—no matter where in New York City they are! Do you live in Manhattan? Perhaps Brooklyn? Or maybe Queens, the Bronx, or Staten Island? Wherever you are in this great city, you can take advantage of our flexibility schedule to request tutoring sessions at the location most convenient for you—even if it’s outside of the city limits but still within the NYC metro area, such as Long Island and certain areas of Westchester County, Connecticut, and New Jersey. Our instructors would be delighted to meet at a public place, such as a local library or a quaint café, or we can meet right in your own living room—it’s your choice!

Our tutoring services for students with dyscalculia naturally focus on mathematics—we offer elementary math and high school math as well as more specific math subjects, such as algebra, geometry, trigonometry, and calculus. We can also assist your student with science subjects that may involve a lot of math or calculations, such as computer science, physics, or chemistry. Of course, we’d also be happy to help your student with subjects unrelated to math—whether that’s preparing for an exam like the SAT, learning another language (such as French or German), or diving into music (from piano to music theory).
