After School Tutoring and Homework Help in Elizabeth, NJ — June 2026
The City of Elizabeth Recreation Department runs a free, drop-in tutoring and homework help program at the Fred Erxleben Recreation Center. Students of all ages and skill levels come to finish assignments, ask questions, and get one-on-one support with their schoolwork. The program creates a structured, quiet space where learning feels less like a struggle and more like something you can actually ask for help with.
The program welcomes any Elizabeth student who needs homework support. Whether you are working through a tough math problem, writing an essay, or studying for a test, the tutors and staff are there to help you understand the material, not just finish the assignment. No registration is required.
You will find a calm study space, access to reference materials, and patient help with any subject. Bring your textbooks, notebooks, and whatever work you need to complete. Other students will be there too, so you are not alone in this. The program runs Friday afternoons, giving students a reliable place to go right after school instead of heading home without answers.
The program meets every Friday from 3:30 to 7:30 PM at the Fred Erxleben Recreation Center, 513-515 Richmond Street, Elizabeth, NJ 07202. There is no fee. Drop in anytime during program hours.
