I am a graduate of The University of Akron. I have a Bachelor's degree in both Mathematics in Secondary Education and Applied Mathematics. My tutoring skills, however, are not limited to only math.

Janet C. from Hudson, OH
Bethany tutored my seven year old son for six months. She was wonderful with him and finds many innovative ways to keep children of his age interested. He always enjoyed the lessons and looked forward to going. She was also extremely knowledgeable about requirements for every grade level and about ways to ensure your child is at the appropriate level. We highly recommend her!

Unfortunately, we considered a tutor for my daughter's advanced algebra halfway through the year. Suffering from testing anxiety, she did well on her assignments, but struggled on tests. So, when searching for a tutor, we set out to find the best available ... and we did! Bethany has given our daughter the knowledge, understanding, and confidence to excel on her exams. I will gladly recommend Bethany D.
Melissa M. from Hudson, OH
Bethany has jumped right into my son's online Geometry curriculum and moved ahead with him. She is easy to work with, knowledgeable, and understands the special circumstances surrounding our family. She's already a great support.
Jen F. from Medina, OH
My daughter has been working with Bethany for over 6 months now. We have seen such an improvement in our daughter's work and confidence level! Bethany makes learning fun and our daughter has grown to love Math. My husband and I would highly recommend Bethany to any parent!
Kathy L. from Peninsula, OH
Bethany was great. She was always on time and my son really enjoyed her. My son started 2nd grade without skipping a beat from where he left off at the end of 1st grade. We look forward to using Bethany again this summer.
Carol P. from Brecksville, OH
My daughter's confidence in math has soared since she has been working with Bethany! She is asked by friends at school how to work a problem because Bethany has her working ahead. I am thankful for her kind, gentle yet nature which is why my daughter connected so well with her. It's a blessing to now hear my daughter say she feels "smart"!
Doug C. from Aurora, OH
Bethany has done an outstanding job with our son. In just a few short weeks she was able to clarify, explain and help him improve his grade from a D up to a B.
Sarah M. from Akron, OH
Bethany is a great find if you are looking for a tutor. She is easy to work with, which is great for me, but more importantly, she is a great tutor, which is great for my daughter. She keeps my daughter engaged for an hour and she actually enjoys learning with Bethany.
Kim W. from Twinsburg, OH
Bethany has recently helped my daughter with Algebra 2. She is easy to schedule with and my daughter really likes her. Thank you Bethany!
Jason M. from Cleveland, OH
My son was failing Algebra 1 and was quickly losing confidence. After a month of 2 sessions per week with Bethany he has pulled his failing grade up to a C+ (and is no longer as nearly intimidated by the subject). Bethany is very intuitive and has been able to relate to and "hone in" on my son's trouble areas and present the information so that it is understood.
Charlotte M. from North Royalton, OH
Bethany takes teaching very seriously and finds creative ways to get through to the student. She is always where she arranges to be and always on time. Bethany wastes no time starting each tutoring session and delves right into the subject content. She is very good at uncovering core learning issues and finds teaching methods that really get through to the student. Her pleasant and helpful demeanor eases the learning process and we are so fortunate to have uncovered such a gem!
Jakob N. from Brecksville, OH
Bethany is currently tutoring my son Nathan to prepare him for his upcoming geometry class. She is patient, understanding and takes the time to make sure he understands the material. She put together a nice plan that emphasizes the key parts of the text and should prepare my son nicely for geometry.
Kathy H. from Brecksville, OH
My daughter was having great difficulty with high school geometry. She needed more individual instruction and someone to explain complex problems in a way she could understand. Bethany has done a great job in doing that. She is very patient and really good at focusing on the more difficult concepts during their time together. My daughter was not excited about having a math tutor, but once she worked with Bethany a few times she really liked her and gained more confidence in doing her home work and in taking quizzes and tests. We will be continuing tutoring with Bethany over the summer. I would highly recommend Bethany as a math tutor.
Gregory B. from Hudson, OH
We originally brought Bethany on as a math tutor to help our son who has struggled with math for years. After just a few sessions, he had really bonded and connected with her better than he had with any tutor before (and we have tried many). When I asked him what the difference was, he said that she was young enough to have been taught in the same way he was supposed to learn, and could actually explain the method to him - as opposed to the adults we had used in the past and who taught him in a completely different way. Bethany has also shown willingness and versatility by offering to help with other subjects outside of math. We highly recommend Bethany.
Julie Z. from Brecksville, OH
I cannot speak highly enough about Bethany. My wife and I are both highly educated and consider ourselves a fairly decent judge of professional competencies and character in someone, and Bethany has exceed all of our expectations and then some. Our grade school son struggles conceptually with some of the more difficult math concepts and Bethany has been able to break it down, communicate it in such a way where he gets it, and his quiz and test scores went from C's to A's. While we don't expect miracles, we know our son is in very capable hands with Bethany. Bethany has always been very responsive and proactive in communicating, scheduling, etc. Moreover, she is a pleasure to be around, she is genuinely a nice person and you can tell she cares greatly about what she does and it shows. Bethany is very low key, but direct, which is a great combination when it comes to communication skills. Our son really likes Bethany and feels totally comfortable around her as well -- that is very important as well. If there were a way to give Bethany beyond an A+, we would!
Hildee W. from Beachwood, OH
I cannot begin to explain how much Bethany has helped my daughter. I found Bethany through WyzAnt to tutor my 15 year old daughter in Algebra 2 and it has been a wonderful experience. With Bethany's help, my daughter has improved dramatically in her classwork and test scores and she has gained confidence to master the material. Bethany has a gift of explaining the material while allowing her student to figure things out for him/her self and excel.
Joao G. from Hudson, OH
Bethany has helped us with both our kids for the past year. She is very responsible, thorough and patient with kids. She has definitely helped them improve their grades and is highly recommended! We plan to have her help them again during the next academic year. Overall a great experience.
Karen W. from Beachwood, OH
My daughter's math grade has improved substantially since working with Bethany. She feels much more confident about her math skills, and is able to get through her math homework now.
Rebecca T. from Brecksville, OH
Bethany seems to be a perfect match for our son. Our son not only has ADHD but is gifted too. This can be a tricky combination to tutor. She was able to keep him focused on the problems given while engaging his mind. She was able to go over more material in an hour than we could ever cover. Thanks!
Rebecca S. from Twinsburg, OH
My son just started with Bethany but is feeling better about starting school this year with her giving him a good refresher.
Laura M. from Cleveland, OH
She was very helpful in probability and statistics. I like her ways in explanation to the problems. It was a good chance to work with her.
