Testimonials

  • Audrey provided the guidance we needed to navigate the IEP process for our 1st-grader. We were overwhelmed by so many questions that came up about the different services that schools may offer, what to expect from integrated co-teaching (ICT), how to best advocate for our child etc., and Audrey patiently walked us through the process and provided invaluable insight based on her personal educational experience. We ended up with an individualized education program that is a great fit. For our family, this is a long-term project which requires a team, and we're happy to have Audrey on the team!

    First Grade Parent, Park Slope

  • Abigail and Audrey are so knowledgable about a wide variety of schools. They helped me create a manageable list for my child based on our unique needs. We are applying past the deadline and moving back to the city from out of state but they were still able to help us. They really made me feel less stressed and even excited about our options!

    Fifth Grade Parent, Nolita

  • We were completely overwhelmed by the public school admissions process until we started working with Abigail and Audrey. They helped us understand our options, kept us organized, and offered honest, thoughtful advice every step of the way. Most of all, they really got to know our kid and helped us find schools that felt like the right fit—not just on paper, but in real life. We’re so grateful!

    Parent of a 5th grade applicant, Upper West Side

  • We were moving to NYC from the West Coast and felt really overwhelmed by the NYC admissions process. Abigail helped us really understand the options for our middle schooler and provided honest advice on how we should rank public middle schools on our application. We would have been totally lost without her guidance! Highly recommend BetterEd for any family that is new to NYC and needs help with their child's schooling!

    6th Grade Parent, UWS

  • We had an excellent, informative half-hour session with Audrey about school options in our district. She is extremely knowledgeable and was well-prepared to answer our questions, and helpfully considered our needs while also being unafraid to share her opinions. We finished our conversation with a much better understanding of the options in our district and how the elementary school system works more generally, including dual-language programs, G&T, priority placements, school reputation, and school dynamics. It was the most worthwhile half-hour learning on schools we could have had — we highly recommend Audrey!
