Questions before you book
How much does tutoring at Genie Academy cost?
$189.99 to $279.99 a month per student.
Three things decide where you land. The plan you pick, month to month for flexibility or 6 months for the lower rate. The program and grade level. And the coach, since higher tiered coaches cost a little more.
Is the free assessment really free?
It's totally free. No cost, no card, no obligation to enroll.
You book it, your child takes it, you get the results. If you decide Genie Academy is not the right fit, you still walk away knowing where your child stands. That part is yours to keep.
What happens during the assessment, and how long does it take?
Plan on about an hour for one subject. Each extra subject adds roughly 30 minutes.
You leave with a clear read on your child's strengths and the specific gaps. Parents often tell us this part alone was worth the visit. Schools do not always cover every state standard, so even A students can carry gaps nobody has spotted yet.
Can we do the assessment online?
Yes. Online over Google Meet, or in person at any of our seven central New Jersey centers. Whatever is easier for your week.
Classes work the same way, so you are not locked into the format you choose today.
Where are your centers, and when are you open?
Seven locations in central New Jersey: East Brunswick, Hillsborough, Marlboro (Morganville), Plainsboro, South Brunswick (Kendall Park), South Plainfield and Woodbridge (Iselin).
Open Monday to Friday, 11:00 AM to 8:30 PM. Saturday, 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM.
We also teach online, so distance from a center does not have to decide it.
What ages and grades do you teach?
Age 3½ through high school.
Younger students start with abacus mental math and early reading. Older students take math, reading, writing and coding. High school students can add SAT, ACT and AP prep.
How long are classes, and how many students are in each?
Classes meet once a week. Toddler classes run 30 minutes. Older students take a one-hour or two-hour class, depending on the program and what your child needs.
Groups stay small on purpose: 3 to 6 students per class. Your child's coach works with them directly every single class, not just when they raise a hand.
Who will be teaching my child?
College educated, Genie Academy certified coaches. Not high school students grading worksheets.
After every class you see what your child worked on, and you get live feedback directly from the coach.
You can read what other parents said about our coaches on the Meet Our Team page.
How soon will we see results?
Every child moves at their own pace, so we measure it instead of promising it.
Your child takes an exam every 90 to 120 days, or sooner if they finish their textbook. After each one you get a coach and parent conference, and you can ask for a conference any time in between.
So you are never guessing. You see exactly where your child is and what moved. Give it at least three months before you judge the program.
Will it help a student who is struggling, advanced, or has a learning difference?
Yes, and the assessment is how we make sure.
It places your child at their own level. A student who is behind gets the ground they missed. A student who is ahead gets work that actually stretches them. Our teaching is multi-sensory, and we have had success with all types of students, including hundreds with special needs.
We believe every child has the potential to be a genius.
How is Genie Academy different from Kumon or Mathnasium?
Small, coach-led classes. Real instruction, not worksheets handed back for grading.
We also teach abacus mental math alongside school-aligned math, plus reading, writing and coding, all at one center. One schedule, one drive, one relationship.

Why an assessment first
The public education system is taxed beyond what it can handle, and not every child gets the personalized support they need. Whether your child is ahead of the class and needs a challenge or is struggling with a specific subject, our assessment gives you a precise read on where they are today and exactly what to do next.
