Introduction: I currently specialize in working with students ages 3+ and getting them ready for Kindergarten Admissions interviews and assessments. I have prepared students for the AABL, Gifted & Talented, ECAA, and ISEE. I am trained in Wilson Reading System, Fundations, Recipe for Reading, Handwriting without Tears, Orton-Gillingham Approach, Teacher's College Reading & Writing Program, and Words Their Way Word Study Program. I have experience working with English Language Learners, and also with teaching students of different ages and abilities to read! I am an honors graduate from New York University and I have been an educator for 13+ years. I worked in Children's Mental Health for 3 years focusing on ADHD, Learning and Academic Achievement, and Trauma cases. I served as a Special Education Teacher and Instructional Specialist with the NYC Department of Education for over 8 years and have been privately tutoring full time for the past 4 years. I enjoy using creative methods to make learning fun and engaging! I love to grow life-long learners and I will find ways to build your child's confidence and increase their academic success while empowering your child at the same time!

'Gabby was my son’s writing tutor for most of the last school year. He was in fourth grade then, and was having a really hard time organizing his thoughts & getting them down on paper. Gabby was able to guide him into expressing himself and building arguments in opinion pieces. She was endlessly calm and very no-nonsense, and also quite gentle."

FAQs

  • What is your typical process for working with a new customer?

    I love to find out as much about my student in our first meeting to learn their interests, learning styles, strengths and weaknesses. With this knowledge, I like to plan engaging activities based on who they are as an individual. I like to use hands on activities to help them understand and master a concept particularly in math. I strongly believe in incorporating performance arts such as Readers Theater to build reading fluency and comprehension. For my younger students I like to use songs, games, and movement as much as possible! I love making learning fun and building intrinsic motivation and engagement within all of my students!
