This school year is certainly going to be filled with challenges, whether your children are remote or not. With parents working from home combined with the uncertainty of what’s to come this fall, there are no easy answers! We know you’re going to need help getting everything done, which is why we’ve put together a comprehensive list of local educational resources for all ages! Our tutoring guide is complete with options for in-person, virtual, micro-schooling, and more! Check it out below!
TWO RIVER TUTORING
Parents of children in grades K-8:
Intellectually stimulating work gets kids excited about learning. However, enrichment or gifted and talented programs may get dropped during the pandemic. If your child is finding school to be too easy, assure that s/he is academically challenged under the tutelage of an expert in gifted and talented education.
Parents of teens:
“Test Optional” sounds liberating, but students with SAT scores have an advantage for both admissions and financial aid. Our streamlined approach brings about significant score increases by focusing on your teen’s strengths and weaknesses. Teens who are not submitting SAT scores must write standout application essays. We can help with essays, too!
Big news for everyone:
We’re expanding our services! Two River Tutoring is combining with TWO RIVER COLLEGE GROUP which specializes in college funding strategies. We can help you with different forms and timing on the financial aid process. Additionally, we can show your family how to maximize both merit and financial aid. If your teen does not need financial aid for college, we’ll show you impacts of certain assets according to specific colleges’ processes.
More big news:
We just brought on a certified college admissions counselor! TWO RIVER COLLEGE GROUP is the only local one-stop shop for all your college application and admissions needs.

“Working with Dan my daughter has experienced an understanding of math in a way that she was not able to do before. Dan’s ability to communicate and connect with his students provides an opening for letting go of the fear and dislike of the work and an opportunity to embrace it. My daughter’s grades in math have skyrocketed since she began to work with Dan and he was able to find areas in which she needed instruction in the basics that had been overlooked before. My daughter now has much more confidence and actually enjoys the work.” -Stacey Kasselman, Red Bank, NJ
