Welcome to
Tip-Top Brain
Every student has the natural ability to learn if given the opportunity to receive a quality education. With a safe, supportive, and positive classroom environment and upbeat, intelligent, and compassionate instructors to guide students throughout their educational journeys, we believe that all students can discover and unlock their fullest potential.
Summer Camp
Academically Enriching & STEM-infused
We cater to all grade levels...
From preK to 12
We know how fundamental learning is in elementary school, as it forms the foundation for all future coursework in their upcoming years. Our instructors are specially trained to work with students preK-5 and to deliver the material in a logical and efficient manner that maximizes comprehension.
Numerous students begin middle school without a firm knowledge in their foundational elementary courses, causing them to quickly fall behind. We keep this in mind, allowing us to address all of their academic needs to get them where they need to be. We give them the confidence to move forward.
Stressful busy schedules and an overwhelming load of coursework leaves high school students anything but free time. We understand this, and thus make our schedules convenient to theirs. We are here to boost their performance on all of their crucial exams required for graduation as well as for getting into the colleges of their choice. With trained concentration and focus from the right instruction, performance optimization is at your fingertips.
What we do
Tip-Top Brain offers several academic programs to accommodate the various needs of its students and their families:
BrainBooster (Group)
Our small teacher to student ratio (1:6) ensures maximal attention and delivery of educational material. Each student is given a level-appropriate individualized program to work on and are closely monitored by our qualified instructors. BrainBooster (Group) is available for students seeking remediation or enrichment.
Homework Booster
Our Homework Booster program is offered to help students K-8 with their daily homework assignments, and is available Monday through Friday from 3:00 PM to 5:00 PM in the following subjects:
Math | ELA | Science | Social Studies
BrainBooster (Private)
We provide one-on-one tutoring in a quiet and comfortable environment, allowing students to progress at their own pace with maximal attention given by a qualified instructor, ensuring improvement in the subject area as well as overall confidence.
Scientific Saturdays (Coming Soon)
We offer a one-of-a-kind science-infused Saturday program (grades 2-6) that is truly unique to Tip-Top Brain! With engaging and enriching science classes every Saturday, ranging from nutrition to the human body, students enrolled acquire knowledge on the importance of positive mental and physical health. Student reading/writing and math skills are incorporated throughout. Our weekly classes also consist of cool art projects that relate to the units covered.

I highly recommend Tip Top Brain! I like how each student is assessed & their tutoring is individually based on their level/needs. The tutoring has helped both my children tremendously. My daughter has also done the coding workshop which she has enjoyed. The staff is super nice and helpful - my kids never complain coming here!
William S.ParentAmazing organization to help our children learn and grow. My children have been educated in Math and ELA and I have seen a huge positive difference in their grades since they started at Tip-Top. Their facility is clean; their staff is welcoming and friendly. I've recommended to several friends already!
Nicole B.Parent
I have previously used a tutoring service for my son - similar in concept but not execution. To start, his assessment was so thorough that it really dialed in to what he needed to improve upon. The classroom is comfortable, clean and quiet and my son has ZERO distractions while he works. His tutoring time is incredibly structured from the length of the lesson to the work he receives. The tutors themselves are not only qualified - they are friendly and clear in communication about your child's progress. Pricing is very reasonable for the service. Finally, Tip-Top is owned and managed by two Astoria natives so you are supporting a local business.
Amy W.ParentMy son has received individualized math tutoring for over two months. I already see a difference in his confidence with math. What's astounding to me is how he loves going there for his twice a week sessions. He used to hate math, but tonight he told me he wanted to practice more. I believe it's the instruction he has received at Tip Top Brain. I had researched Kumon as well, but at Tip Top Brain the help is personalized for the child, is aligned with Common Core standards, and doesn't rely just on rote drill. In addition to tutoring they also have great Coding classes. My son has loved this class! I highly recommend this center!

We unravel the Common Core
For the Common Core, today’s students are preparing to enter a world in which colleges and businesses are demanding more than ever before. To ensure all students are prepared for success after graduation, the Common Core establishes a set of clear, consistent guidelines for what students should know and be able to do at each grade level in math and English language arts.
Our unique assessment, which has been statistically validated for reliability and is aligned with Common Core and state standards, determines exactly what each student knows and what they need to learn to meet their grade level benchmark and beyond.
Want us to talk with your child’s teacher?
No problem!
We’ll communicate with your child’s teacher to ensure their academic goals are being met.
