Jane Moskowitz | Director of Family Educational Advising

A native New Yorker with deep roots in the city’s educational landscape, Jane Moskowitz brings an extraordinary blend of academic expertise and hands-on experience to her role as Forum’s Director of Family Educational Advising. After graduating from Dalton, Jane earned a degree in psychology and neuroscience from Duke University before pursuing her masters in general education and literacy at Bank Street – a journey that reflects her commitment to understanding both the science and art of learning.

Jane’s tenure as a classroom teacher at Stephen Gaynor School, New York’s premier institution for students with language-based learning differences, shaped her sophisticated understanding of how different students access and process information. This experience, combined with her subsequent years providing targeted literacy intervention to students across Manhattan’s top schools, has given her rare insight into both institutional expectations and individual learning needs.

What truly distinguishes Jane is her ability to see the complete picture of a student’s academic journey. Through comprehensive intake conversations, she crafts strategic student-tutor matches that consider not just academic needs, but learning styles and personalities. Her guidance spans from classroom advocacy to standardized testing accommodations, from neuropsychological evaluations to long-term academic planning – all aimed at empowering families with the tools and knowledge they need for their children’s success.

Jane’s passion for education extends beyond her professional role. As founder of Tutoring League of New York City, she’s built a thriving community for education practitioners, facilitating professional development and collaboration among the city’s top educators. This commitment to advancing educational excellence makes her a natural champion for Forum families.

When she’s not immersed in the latest educational research or advising families, Jane can be found on the Upper East Side with her husband and their two children. Together, they also run a dog rescue organization saving Cunucu dogs from Aruba – just one more example of Jane’s dedication to making a meaningful difference in her community.
