Whether you’re a current student or haven’t stepped into the classroom in decades, we all remember what homework was like. After a long day hitting the books, there was almost certainly a pile of homework awaiting us as we arrived home. While it may not have been the most fun undertaking in the moment, these at-home assessments and resources would ultimately play a fundamental role in reinforcing what was learned that day. If you’re currently a student or the parent of a student, we understand that homework can be a big hurdle for students of all ages. However, with a helping hand and a bit of patience, this process can ultimately be a rewarding experience for any student.

Each Saturday, students in the Trenton area are invited to the Trenton Free Public Library for some hands-on tutoring help. Tutors will be available from 11:30am to 1:00pm, as well as from 3:00pm to 4:00pm. All tutoring will take place in the Children’s Room of the Trenton Free Public Library, located at 120 Academy St, Trenton, NJ 08608. Throughout the afternoon, a number of knowledgable tutors will be on hand to help students with a number of important subjects, including:

  • Reading
  • Math
  • Science

These tutoring sessions are appropriate for students in elementary and middle school.
