Over twenty years of teaching, coaching, & mentoring experience, and the experience gained from over 100 national & international standardised test sittings inform the individualized programs that I will craft to improve your test scores and strengthen your reading, writing, reasoning, and quantitative skills. While at Yale University, I qualified as a USA Track & Field Level 1 Coach. At Columbia University, I worked as a graduate teaching assistant and as a lecturer with the State University of New York - Purchase. I also coached fellow graduate students preparing for interviews with elite management consultancies, outperforming our counterparts in the Business school in the midst of the 2008 downturn. After graduate school, I worked as a lecturer at the W.E.B. DuBois Scholars Institute at Princeton University and at several colleges in the City University of New York system. I also co-founded a teen summer entrepreneurship program. As an exam coach, I have worked with students ranging from underserved students in the Bronx to over-scheduled students in Bahrain. As an exam enthusiast, I have earned perfect ACT, SAT, GMAT/V, GMAT/Q, GRE/V, GRE/Q scores and a 178 on the LSAT. My GMAT best is a 790. I'm your Exam Guy.See more

Francesca Greco says, "Gabriel is an incredibly knowledgeable and passionate language teacher. He teaches 7 languages, including French, Spanish, English, and Italian, and Ive had the pleasure of speaking these languages with him personally. His depth of knowledge is remarkable, but what really stands out is his ability to make people feel comfortable and confident speaking a new language from day one. He makes learning feel natural, approachable, and genuinely enjoyable.He truly cares about his students and is passionate about helping them reach their goals, whether theyre learning for personal or professional development. I cant recommend Gabriel highly enough to anyone looking for an encouraging, dedicated, and highly skilled language coach!"See more

YOU CAN TEACH a 4-7-YEAR-OLD TO READ AND I CAN HELP YOU! Three Types of Adult Support I Provide for Teaching Young Children: 1. Private coaching for parents or teachers, on an hourly basis on Zoom or in your home in the Seattle area ($60 per hour) 2. In-home consultations for parents where I can help you set up a nurturing and effective learning environment for your child ($100 per hour in the Seattle area *) 3. Seminars for parents, teachers, families, communities, churches, homeschool groups, PTAs, and friends who CAN teach 4-7-year-old children. Learn to read in a step by step, systematic, simple way! ($200 per hour) To be successful, parents and educators will find it invaluable to know: • How children learn • That 0-6-year-olds have an absorbent mind *, through which they effortlessly absorb information • That children love to learn • That there is a dependable, step by step reading sequence to follow that can empower anyone to teach • How to use hands-on reading materials that are like a series of card games so that children can almost teach themselves to read. See that these materials are tailored to the needs of young children • How to establish simple routines at home or school of 10-15 minutes per day where practicing or “playing with the materials” enables children to successfully read! • It is not difficult for most children to learn to read if they have the right tools and adults who understand a simple sequence. As a Montessori teacher with 25+ years' experience teaching reading and writing to children 4-7 years old, including my own six children, I am passionate about showing adults how they CAN teach children to read. Let’s start a revolution in learning! What I offer to Parents, Teachers, and All Who Would Support Children: 1. I provide private consultations and seminars for parents and teachers. If this is done in connection with tutoring, it will maximize the tutoring opportunity for children. Parents will be more conscious of developmental needs and will be more engaged. They can better understand and so support the child's efforts with hands-on reading materials. Simple feedback and demonstrations to you as your child is learning can be a great help. 2. I also provide seminars in which I communicate all of the above in further detail about how children learn and also lay out a clear sequence of how to teach reading. This can be step by step training for parents, teachers, and others! I use power points and other presentation materials to give detailed instructions about how to teach. I demonstrate the use of the materials and make recommendations. Understand how children learn and how to ensure the building of a successful reading foundation. *Please note I charge transportation fee of $1.00 per mile for transportation.See more

Maria M. says, "Highly recommend! My kids have been receiving tutoring from her, and I’ve honestly noticed such a big improvement, not only academically but also in their confidence when doing their schoolwork. She is incredibly patient and explains things in a way that makes it easier for them to understand. As a mom, it’s very important to me to know that my children are learning with someone who genuinely cares about their progress and takes the time to help them in the areas where they need it most. I’m very happy with the results and would definitely recommend her to any parent looking for a great tutor for their children! ❤️"See more
