NYC Tutoring Contributes to a Greener Jersey City by Providing Free Translation Services

Jersey City is ranked the second most diverse city in the United States, according to WalletHub’s latest diversity report. It also ranks #2 in linguistic diversity across the country.

Education is at the core of Sustainable Jersey City’s efforts and we’ve been working to expand our reach by generating content in more languages. To that end, we have partnered with NYC Tutoring to translate content and better serve our multilingual communities.

During the pandemic, Jersey City residents enjoyed a brief period of significant reductions in air pollution and found respite from lockdowns in our green spaces — a trend we see continuing in the coming months. As our communities found their green thumbs and started to look into living more sustainable lifestyles, including caring for their Street Trees, SJC took this opportunity to bring them into the fold with expanded language capabilities. We’re grateful to  NYC Tutoring and its language tutors, who offered pro bono translations to ensure that our residents have all the support they need in making Jersey City a greener, more sustainable place to live and work.

“The preservation of the environment is an issue that touches us all,” says Luke Palder, Co-founder of NYC Tutoring.“Sustainable Jersey City is working toward a noble mission of a greener, more sustainable Jersey City, and we’re proud to help in any way we can.”

NYC Tutoring provides personalized tutoring services in a wide range of subjects including SAT prep for students in the New York Metropolitan area and Northeastern New Jersey, including Jersey City. With the support of NYC Tutoring, we are working on efficiently promoting awareness of our programs and educating individuals in major languages such as Spanish, Arabic, and Chinese,  among others. 

Sustainable Jersey City would like to thank Luke Palder and his NYC Tutoring team for their outstanding efforts. We hope to continue our mission to create a greener Jersey City for us all, regardless of language.
