Beverly H. Moskowitz

DOT, MS OTR/L FAOTA

CEO and President

A pediatric Occupational Therapist for 46+ years, Dr. Bev appreciates the urgency in building function, participation, and access for students through effective, efficient, affordable, measurable, evidence-based, and fun occupational therapy solutions.

With a BS in OT from the University of Pennsylvania and an MS and DOT from Temple University, Bev worked in a variety of treatment settings ranging from residential facilities to private homes, clinics to schools, and habilitation centers to sheltered workshops. After authoring multiple publications on school services, Dr. Bev’s mission expanded to teach other therapists how to implement AOTA best practices, time-saving strategies, and progressive IDEA ideals by offering wide-ranging professional development workshops for therapists and educators.

A creative entrepreneur, determined researcher, and tireless professional, Dr. Bev is also the author of The Size Matters ® Handwriting Program, a concept-driven approach to teaching and remediating handwriting. SMHP has been proven effective at a .001 level of significance in the largest research study ever done on handwriting. Currently used in every state and 5 continents, SMHP is quickly being recognized as the fastest way to promote legibility.

In 2010, Dr. Bev launched Real OT Solutions ® . Its mission, as both a product and education-oriented business, is to provide consumers – therapists, teachers, parents, and kids, with Effective, Efficient, Affordable, and Fun solutions to school needs. Its catalog of materials, including the Size Matters ® Handwriting Program, enables children, teachers, parents, and occupational therapists to work together more successfully.

In 2015, she was recognized for her professional contributions and inducted as a Fellow into the American Occupational Therapy Association. She is also an approved provider of continuing education through the American Occupational Therapy Association.

In 2019, Dr. Bev added keynote speaker to her resume. Abruptly donning caps of provider and consumer secondary to a personal tragedy, Dr. Bev redefined her views on parenting, relationships, communication, self-preservation, and her professional role in the schools. This moving and yet, surprisingly funny address resonates with our collective humanity and has been received high praise for its inspirational message.

Ever in pursuit of professional outreach and collaboration, Dr. Bev is a national lecturer through ROTS, frequent presenter with the Bureau of Education and Research, and a member of the Advisory Boards at Temple and Salus University. She continues to mentor, research, and create, and endeavors to make Real OT Solutions ® the go-to resource for all consumers striving to promote competence and independence in every generation.

Janet Amadio, OTR/L

Akron Public Schools

"Earlier this year I wrote to you about a kindergarten teacher who didn't believe kindergarten students were developmentally ready/able to print on lined paper.

"Earlier this year I wrote to you about a kindergarten teacher who didn't believe kindergarten students were developmentally ready/able to print on lined paper. I implemented some of your advice and wanted to share with you what happened. That teacher quite readily agreed to let me start teaching a weekly handwriting lesson with her class. Soon she began to notice handwriting was improving and the students were remembering and using the rules even when I wasn't there. She reported a student was erasing a letter in a word that was otherwise spelled correctly. When she questioned why, he replied "Because it's floating". Hooray!!! My lessons happened to come up in conversation with kindergarten teacher #2 who indicated that she'd like to have me give lessons in her class as well. She also reports carry over into classroom assignments and has become quite the fan. Kindergarten teacher #3 stopped me in the hallway to ask what I was doing in the other classes that they were raving about and could I come to her class too! I participate in a professional learning community with these 3 teachers and an instructional coach. I brought the written language production guide and some of the Size Matters research to my group and gave an overview of each. They all asked for copies and the coach was going to share some of it with other grade levels, particularly the written language production guide. Happily they noticed how Size Matters directly addresses the standards. This school will likely only have 2 kindergarten classes next year, but both have already told me how beneficial the lessons have been and that they would like me to start on the first week in the fall. I thought that was the best compliment of all! I love making a difference with a larger group of kids. Teachers and my principal have really noticed my contributions and value what I have to offer. I also appreciate getting to have eyes on all of the kindergarten students to help identify who might need a referral for further evaluation. Thanks so much for all of your help!"

Donna Jo Kennedy

Somerville, NJ
