Hear what parents and education professionals have to say about Beth….
Beth has worked with 3 of our children for the past 5 years and is an incredible learning specialist. Auditory processing is one of Beth’s specialties and she’s very informed of the latest tools & software to help train the growing brain. Beth has helped to build our kids a foundational learning & studying platform that has prepared them for high school and college. My kids have emerged as incredible thinkers, speakers & writers! Finally, in this time of online learning, Beth has been very organized and interactive with my children’s teachers and curriculum! Thank you Beth, for being such a valuable resource for our family. — V.M.B
I have had the privilege of working with Beth for several years. Beth cares deeply about understanding the whole child in a comprehensive manner so she can best assess their learning needs and deliver an individualized learning plan that yields positive results. She strives to build a personal connection with each of her students and I have always found her insights and recommendations to be incredibly insightful. The students that work with Beth not only see an improvement in their skills, but they also develop a feeling of confidence and support that stays with them. Beth is a fantastic communicator, both with teachers and parents, and her ability to collaborate and adapt her learning goals to meet the in-class assignments make her a joy to work with.

Beth has been a tremendous resource for my daughter, helping her develop learning and organizational strategies that translate seamlessly to the classroom. It has been wonderful to see the boost in my daughter’s confidence as she has worked with Beth, whose firm, straightforward encouragement helped my child showcase her innate abilities. — A.G.
By the end of first grade it was apparent that my son was struggling to master reading with fluency. His school recommended that he meet with Beth twice a week during the summer before he entered the second grade, and has continued through the second grade with two main goals: 1) gain confidence reading and 2) prepare for third grade when reading skills are no longer focused on mechanics but instead, reading comprehension. I cannot overstate how important his meetings with Beth have been to him achieving and surpassing these goals, even during times of virtual learning. I was skeptical about the success of zoom meets, but my son comes out of Beth’s virtual meetings with an astounding amount of work done, and his improvement reading is undeniable. He even reads for pleasure now! Beth is always reliable and punctual,and can accommodate a variety of different types of learners. We are so thankful to have her! — J.M.
We found Beth through a referral from the neurological psychologist who conducted our dyslexic six-year daughter’s evaluation. We had already worked with a couple of other tutors who, in retrospect, paled in comparison to Beth’s ability to engage our child. Beth reviewed our child’s neuropsych report and conducted her own form of assessments to understand her learning style. With this information, she quickly built a rapport with our daughter such that she willingly and happily went to her sessions with Beth. Prior to working with Beth, our daughter was resistant to reading and doing anything related to writing. After just three-months of working with her, I could see our daughter’s confidence soar. She was more willing to try...and, as a perfectionist, just trying to figure something out was very hard for her to do. Beth gave her tools to read and for that we are so very grateful. — P.B.L.
I have a son who had the good fortune of being tutored by Beth. Beth has the discipline and academic acumen to tackle challenging subjects which puts students at ease and gives them the bench strength to handle difficult subjects throughout the school year. Given that I was on the road for much of my time, I was at ease with Beth handling the academic tutoring in my absence. My son graduated from grade school and went on to private high school where he was high school valedictorian. Beth is a delight to work with and students enjoy being tutored by her and feel confident in their studies as a result. — E.C.
