"Hello! My name is Gail Katz, and I taught school for many years before becoming a full-time substitute and private tutor.
My years of substituting are equivalent to approximately 6 full years of teaching experience. I have substituted most grade levels, as well as most subject areas. Since I have experience subbing in classrooms with kids ranging from 4 to 17 years old, I’ve decided to work one on one with young students in 1st through 4th grade. Unfortunately, because I spend so much time preparing for each tutoring session, I‘ve had to limit the number of private students I see in the time I have.
My experience with ADHD children comes from 2 places. One place is from the wide range of classrooms I work in. Today, students that makeup classrooms are diverse in ability and disability, and it is not unusual for a classroom to have 5-10 ADHD students. But I have to say that the majority of my experience with ADHD came from raising my own 2 ADHD children. As challenging as it was, my children were wonderful! They were great kids! But, personally “living it” helped me to understand the difficulties and the struggles that most parents in this situation experience. While I was dealing with those kinds of challenges, I attended seminars and workshops to learn as much as possible through lectures, question-and-answer sessions, and a plethora of resource books.
If you are looking for a devoted, compassionate, patient, and nurturing tutor for your child, you have found that tutor. As I mentioned earlier, I am very limited in the number of students I can take, so please reach out to me as soon as possible if you are interested in either online tutoring or in-person tutoring.
