About Betsy
COVID-19 vaccinated
NYC / Hamptons - Certified Teacher - 25+ yrs. Teaching is my passion. Seeing the light go on in a child's eye when they master a skill warms my heart. Personally, I am a mom of 4 terrific young adults. My kids are everything to me and I hope you feel the same about yours! I am currently offering tutoring and enrichment as well as T&E, SSAT, and ISEE Prep- primary, lower and middle levels. My approach to teaching is lighthearted and fun. It's important that I connect with my students on a personal level. If you feel laughter and giggles are inappropriate in a learning environment, please consider another candidate. My lighthearted approach inevitably leads my students to grow to love learning and to reach their highest potential. In addition to academic tutoring, I am experienced in helping students of all ages improve their writing skills, including composing and polishing those all important essays required for college applications.

Betsy is an experienced educator who I interviewed last fall for a full-time position as instructor for a "pod" of first graders whose families had opted for a home schooling situation. As her supervisor it was immediately clear that Betsy was and is a skillful, knowledgeable teacher. Her lessons are well organized, clear and, perhaps most importantly, interesting. Her students loved the challenges that Betsy brought to them and they have excelled in their work. Betsy taught the children all subjects but her work with reading and writing was instrumental in helping young, tentative beginners not only meet but exceed grade-level standards. Betsy identifies and addresses individual needs immediately thus preventing loss of confidence. It has been a strong year academically and, relying on the children's opinions, lots of fun.
