About Gabi
I have been teaching and privately tutoring for over 16 years. I have taught classes as small as two students and as large as 40. I teach all subjects, but my specialties are reading and writing. I have improved my students' grades by up to three letter grades! My most recent student started with a C in English before tutoring, and ended up with an A by the end of the year. I have a bachelor's degree in Fine Art, a master's in Teaching, and a multiple subject teaching credential for grades K-12.

I provide engaging Art and English lessons to students ages 5-18. My teaching method is very interactive, visual, and hands-on. I want to make my classes as interactive and stimulating as possible, so I use props, flashcards, colorful charts, and other visual tools. I will guide the students as they create, ask questions, and give constructive feedback, without inhibiting their creativity or thinking process. There needs to be a balance between structure and play, so that creativity can flourish. I am very passionate about what I do and have seen immense progress and success from my students.

Perfect! My six years old daughter loved her class. She is so patient, kind and engaging. She asks engaging questions to keep my kid involved. Highly recommend to anyone. Thank you Ms Gabi!!
- Lucy was such a joy to work with! She was very thoughtful with her creative decisions, and stayed focused for most of the time. Although there were a few times during the lesson she got distracted and would become talkative, it was very easy to get her back on track. I would love to work with Lucy in the future! :)Gabi's response :

Gabi is an incredible tutor. She is patient and kind and understands each student's unique learning style.
I highly recommend Gabi to all Superprof members who are looking to learn English and Art. My daughter had been studying with her for two years, and during this time, she has made significant progress. Gabi is very dedicated, responsible, and tailors her teaching to each student’s needs. I have noticed that she always prepares thoroughly for each lesson. What’s even more valuable is that while teaching knowledge, she also imparts effective learning methods. Through subtle influence, she helps children develop the right values and provides positive guidance, especially to those struggling with identity confusion. We are very grateful for Gabi’s help.
Gabi is passionate about her tutoring, loves her students and strives to improve on their skill sets. She takes a personal interest in each and every student and strives to ‘unleash’ their maximum potential at all times. She is patient and has a disciplined yet nurturing approach to tutoring. Gabi is very creative in how she approaches each subject and individualizes an approach depending on strengths or areas for improvement
She receives my highest recommendation!
DAGabi connected so well with our son. I think that listening and understanding a students perspective is the first vital step in truly meaningful instruction! She excels at it and we would and will use her again!
Gabi worked as an instructional assistant in my classroom at a local elementary charter school. She has a passion for art and is very creative. She knows how to break difficult skills down into manageable chunks to make them more accessible to students. Gabi will be a fantastic painting teacher for your child!
Wow! I cannot say enough positive things about Gabi. I heard about her through my neighbor, who highly recommended her to me. Gabi has been privately teaching painting to my 8 year old son for the past 2 1/2 years. She gave him a strong foundation of painting techniques, that he was able to grasp quickly through positive reinforcement and interesting lessons. Last week, my son accidentally spilled some paint on the floor. Instead of getting angry, Gabi stayed calm and collected, and made sure my son didn't feel bad about it. They actually had a lot of fun cleaning! Gabi always has a smile on her face, and such a positive attitude! This has spread to my son, and he is always excited for his art lessons. She makes him feel comfortable and at peace, but also motivated and inspired to learn and focus. If you want an art teacher who is engaging, professional, and great at what she does, choose Gabi. You won't be sorry!
I was recommended Gabi as an art tutor from a couple I am friends with in the bay area. Gabi teaches art to my two sons separately- ages 6 and 12. She brings a wide variety of art materials to every lesson. She always has a clear focus and objective for each lesson, while still allowing the boys to express themselves freely and creatively. Gabi has done the most fantastic projects with them, such as dragon and Pokemon paintings, still life drawings, self portraits inspired by famous artists' styles, and collages with tissue paper, magazines, and other mixed media. She keeps them focused and engaged, which is saying a lot (my boys are easily distracted!) She also improved their confidence tremendously. I could see how much they were learning and progressing in art within the first few months. Gabi has a genuine passion for art and education, and truly cares about every one of her students. In addition, she has a wide plethora of knowledge about both art and teaching, thanks to her extensive training. I highly recommend Gabi to anyone looking for a hands-on, caring, and exceptionally qualified art teacher!
Gabi has been tutoring my 10 year old daughter with reading and writing for the past 3 years. Within the first year, my daughter's English grade improved from a C to an A! I watched the way Gabi worked with her, and was in awe of her patience, motivation, and engagement. She used a lot of helpful visuals during lessons, as well as interactive, hands-on activities that got my daughter moving and thinking. Now with Covid, Gabi still has the ability to engage my daughter through zoom and get her inspired and moving, so that she feels refreshed and ready to learn. I couldn't recommend her more as tutor in any subject!
Gabi Abrahamson is a former student of mine. She is creative, dependable, kind and intelligent. I recommend her highly as a child-centered art teacher.
