History
Brienza's Academic Advantage was founded in 1995 by Lillian V. Brienza following her more than 30 year career as a teacher and administrator with the New York City Public Schools. From the beginning, Ms. Brienza brought in other experienced educators to help her develop the learning programs, design the curricula and plan the professional development workshops upon which the company has built its reputation. Today, every member of Brienza's Academic Advantage instructional staff is a current or former licensed educator. All of the instructors working with students are certified teachers with extensive training in helping students achieve academically.
