Our Mission
The City Tutors' mission is threefold:
  1. Empower students and professionals seeking to give back through tutoring by providing support and opportunities for them to make an impact on the quality of the learning experience for students at under-served educational community programs across NYC. 
  2. Bridge the communication gap between academic support and instructional spaces to create learning environments that are more responsive to students' needs.
  • Invest in tutor training,  and tutors' professional development to ensure a professionalized volunteer service that can provide reliable, high quality tutoring support. 


About Us
CT is the Colin Powell School’s volunteer tutoring program, and a community organization that provides volunteer tutoring support to programs across Manhattan, Bronx, Brooklyn and Queens. We work with after school enrichment programs, housing projects, high schools, adult education programs, and a nano-tech lab. We work with students between 5-60 years old.

No formal tutoring experience necessary. We provide flexible training (days, evenings, weekends; in-person and virtual).

As a City Tutor, you can be connected to a mentor from an industry you are interested in who can help you with the job search, with drafting professional documents, and preparing for your next career steps.​
