Children In Film, Inc. and Big Apple Tutoring, LLC Form New York Studio Teacher’s Association, a Resource For Productions Hiring Certified Studio Teachers & On-Set Tutors
New York, NY (PRWEB) January 14, 2014 -- Children In Film, Inc. (CIF) and Big Apple Tutoring, LLC (BAT) announced a joint venture to provide on-set tutors and studio teachers for entertainment industry productions employing minors in the New York Metropolitan area. The organization will go by the name of New York Studio Teacher's Association (NYSTA).
The joint venture combines the entertainment industry experience and labor law expertise of Children In Film with Big Apple Tutoring’s locally-sourced, top-rated educators. Combined, CIF and BAT are positioned to provide child performers with outstanding academic oversight by experienced and fully-credentialed teachers, who also possess a thorough knowledge of the New York Child Labor regulations affecting minors in entertainment that went into effect in 2013.
"A minor’s education should never be compromised as a result of entertainment industry employment," commented Toni Casala, Founder and CEO of Children In Film. "By forming The New York Studio Teacher’s Association with Daniel C. Levine of Big Apple Tutoring, LLC., Children In Film furthers our commitment to the entertainment community by providing outstanding resources for the employers of child performers working in and around the New York City area."
"I created Big Apple Tutoring, LLC in 1999 when I was a Broadway actor, 'between shows'. I decided to utilize my undergraduate and graduate studies and began tutoring NYC private school students in upper level maths and sciences. I soon became one of the most sought after tutors in Manhattan. Since then, Big Apple Tutoring, LLC has become one of Manhattan's largest and well-respected tutoring agencies, yet I pride myself on still personally selecting, interviewing, vetting and hiring each and every teacher. I understand the unique and competitive academic world (in NYC) and know that, with the perfect tutor/teacher/academic supervisor/academic manager, any student is capable of thriving and feeling proud of his/her academic achievements."
