About Elizabeth

Bio

I love helping students get comfortable with the SAT verbal (Reading and Writing) test. Since I worked for over a decade at Educational Testing Service *writing* the test, I have keen insights into how you can best prepare for the test. Before working at ETS, I was an award-winning instructor of English at Rutgers University for 15 years.

In my tutoring I combine my love of teaching and nurturing young people with my expertise in standardized tests. I tutor for the SAT or ACT English...

I love helping students get comfortable with the SAT verbal (Reading and Writing) test. Since I worked for over a decade at Educational Testing Service *writing* the test, I have keen insights into how you can best prepare for the test. Before working at ETS, I was an award-winning instructor of English at Rutgers University for 15 years.

In my tutoring I combine my love of teaching and nurturing young people with my expertise in standardized tests. I tutor for the SAT or ACT English tests.

I have Masters degrees in English and French. I won an award for outstanding teaching at Rutgers University, and was especially noticed for my creativity as an instructor.

The SAT and ACT can be very intimidating, especially to students who may have issues with reading or attention. I enjoy helping all of my young clients to get more confident about the tests. I pride myself on developing a strong positive rapport with each of the students I work with.

Please reach out so we can talk about your son or daughter's particular needs for tutoring. I look forward to speaking with you! I love my job, and I usually leave tutoring sessions feeling energized, with a huge smile on my face!

I spent 10+ years working on the team that creates the SAT Writing & Language test, at Educational Testing Service in Princeton, NJ. That experience involved intensive involvement with grammatical concepts and rules. Prior to that, I was an instructor of English at Rutgers University, where I used grammar knowledge to help students learn to be better writers.

Knows all of the tricks in SAT English

Betsy is an excellent tutor. Since she was part of the team that wrote the SAT, she knows all of the musts and must nots. When she reviews material with you, she helps you solve your mistakes independently. I highly recommend her tuition!
