Testimonials

Betsy has continued to help me so much over our time working together. From day one, she made a huge difference in how I approached the test, especially in the way I viewed “day before” test prep. Before working with Betsy, I often felt stuck or overwhelmed, especially with math and test prep or when doing the math section on the actual test. But she explained things in a way that actually made sense to me. Not only did my scores go up in math, but so did my confidence. I started believing I could actually do well with the right teacher, and that mindset shift has made a big difference in my scores. Betsy has always been patient, supportive, and easy to talk to. She knows when to push me and when to slow things down, and always made sure I really understood the material. It never felt like just another tutoring session, it felt like talking to a friend. She is someone who genuinely cares about helping me succeed. If you're looking for someone who’s knowledgeable, encouraging, and truly committed to helping students grow, I can’t recommend Betsy enough to you.

“Betsy was very helpful for letting me get the 36 I wanted on the ACT! She not only helped me with getting my math to be more consistent, but she gave me great test taking strategies to make the most of my knowledge.”

Manuel

I would highly recommend Betsy Surver for ACT tutoring. Betsy has helped my daughter with math, science and english for the ACT. She is able to break down concepts in a clear and concise way that was easy for my daughter to understand. She was able to create an environment that was encouraging and positive. My daughter’s confidence has definitely improved. On her last ACT her math score improved. Betsy is also flexible with scheduling and was always on time for sessions. She is always professional and great to work with for tutoring.

I had the pleasure of working with Betsy for my ACT tutoring. I can confidently say she helped me improve my score. Betsy was flexible, patient, and shaped her teaching in way that was easy for me to understand. She constantly encouraged me to do my best and to ask questions. Betsy went above and beyond to make the learning fun and engaging. I would highly recommend Betsy for anyone who is looking for a dedicated, hard-working tutor.

It takes time to develop rapport with a new teacher, but after an hour, you should be able to tell whether things are clicking between student and tutor.

I want to help you exchange dread for confidence and excitement.

Everyone needs someone on their team sometimes, especially for subjects that we dread. I needed Chinese tutor desperately in 9th grade and by Junior year I BECAME a Chinese tutor (don’t ask me to speak Mandarin now, I haven’t touched those skills in years – just like so much of the basic math you haven’t touched!) No matter where or when you start, you can always start the path to mastering whatever you need to learn. As we tackle one concept at a time, each potential problem on your next test will become something you are ready for and excited to demonstrate your abilities on. I can’t wait to watch confidence grow and math start to make sense – it is accessible to everyone.
