Inna A, 1 lesson with ElizabethBetsy was able to do what no other tutor could. My son met with Betsy twice before she joined Wyzant, and then he met with her once more. He was struggling to break through to the 750 mark on the ERW portion of the SAT. With Betsy's expertise in this test and rare talent for teaching, he was able to surpass his goal.

Most SAT tutors will tell you they earned a perfect score.
Far fewer can say they wrote the test itself.
From 2005 to 2017, I was part of the small team in Princeton, NJ that developed the SAT verbal exam. That experience gives my students a real advantage: I can show you the patterns behind the questions—how the test is designed, how wrong answers are constructed, and how to arrive at the correct answer more quickly and confidently.
I have spent the past 9 years tutoring for the SAT...

Betsy was able to do what no other tutor could. My son met with Betsy twice before she joined Wyzant, and then he met with her once more. He was struggling to break through to the 750 mark on the ERW portion of the SAT. With Betsy's expertise in this test and rare talent for teaching, he was able to surpass his goal. Her teaching style is very expressive and caring, and right away, she connected deeply with my son. She locked in on his weak spots, taught him great strategies in a simple way he could understand, and methodically gave him tailored pratice to do on his own. Betsy's understanding of the test comes from her years of experience as the test writer for the SAT. It was her job to come up with hidden ways to test students' abilities on the verbal portions of the SAT, so she knows exactly how to explain those tricks to any student, and guide them to avoid the sneaky pitfalls, step by step and with great care. Betsy is a treasure. She is super efficient, full of heart, and the outcome is worth far more than the cost of the session. If your child needs a score increase and a major confidence boost for the SAT, look no further than Betsy.

Fantastic tutor!
My son loved working with Betsy. Her super organized approach and detailed follow up to her lessons were fantastic- and I especially appreciated the opportunity to read her careful analysis of the material they covered. Would definitely work with Betsy again!

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!
