Miss Gil: Cares & Gets Results – Regents, SAT & NYS ELA & Math Exams

I have been tutoring for a while, and I truly enjoy making a difference through academics. My students vary from Kindergarten through grade 12, as well as college students for Algebra and Writing. I tutor a variety of subjects but mainly Mathematics and English, Reading, and Writing for elementary. For high school students, most NY State Regents examinations and the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT). FOR 5 CONSECUTIVE YEARS, I have 100% of students whom I tutored, pass the NYS ELA, Mathemati…

Carolyn R. from Bronx, NY My daughter stated she has no problem with the tutoring however Ms Gilant seem to have a problem with her scheduling. I spoke with her 2 days after my daughter tutoring and did confirm my daughter would continue tutoring, but we had a discussion on having my daughter 4 hours which I was questioning about 2 hours. I did tell her I would let her know if I can afford 2 or 4 hours. Ms Gilant called back and leave a text to confirm for Wednesday next thing I know she was calling me to tell me I have to choose another tutor, because she already gave that time to someone else. My daughter needs help to pass her regents but I cannot have her deal with someone who is so disorganized with her scheduling.

Vanessa R. from Saint Albans, NY "Professional, Diligent, Caring" These are the best words to describe Miss Gil.

Madelynne D. from Rosedale, NY Gilant P. appeared to be a kind and caring woman, but didn't work out for my son's tutoring needs. Within the month's time of having her tutor my son, she started off late to tutor sessions due to traveling issues and then scheduling problems arose. Within a month, our scheduled appointment's times and locations were changed several times making it very inconvenient and frustrating. Also, as expressed initially, my desire was to have one on one tutoring for my son. On one occasion, there were five or more children scheduled within the time my son was receiving tutoring which was disturbing to me. Consequently, I felt my child was not getting the appropriate attention and we had to discontinue her services. Overall, I don't know what kind of impact she would have made as a tutor for my son.

Naomy D. from Brooklyn, NY My family has the honor to have Mrs. Gil as a tutor. Mrs. Gil has been tutoring my seven year old for a couple of months, and getting him prepared for the state exam ELA. My son has shown great improvement in all of his school work. Mrs. Gil is dedicated in the work that she does. With all her hard work my son?s vocabulary has improved. His writing is better, His math skills have gotten much better. My son?s grades on his report card have successfully increased. Mrs. Gil wants her students to progress, so she gives homework, spelling quizes, and ELA test to see mush much her student has learned, and I love it.

Tyeisha D. from Jamaica, NY So far my son has met with Ms. Gil about three times. After a session with Ms. Gil, he discusses what occurred and I believe that there is some progress being made however what I enjoy the most about Ms. Gil is the way she communicates the lessons they've reviewed and weather or not he's doing well or as she expected. This up front and honest approach is very rewarding. We have finally found someone who isn't afraid to tell us like it is.

Carla P. from Saint Albans, NY My son was having a very hard time with comprehension in school and because of this he was not successful in his ELA state exam last year and he had to repeat 4th grade. I tried numerous tutors and none seems to help as much as Ms. Gil. She helped him to see where he was going wrong with reading and understanding what was read so that it would be much easier to answer question that was asked in each story. His teacher said he is doing very well in that subject now and although the results of this years ELA is not out as yet I am quite positive that the outcome is going to be great. Thanks Ms. Gil.

Annie M. from Far Rockaway, NY First off, I was very impressed that Gil was open to traveling all the way out to my home to tutor my 9th grader. Gil has such a pleasant disposition. My usually shy daughter was immediately comfortable with her and her teaching style. Gil never missed any sessions, and would adjust her sessions accordingly if she was ever late, so that my daughter never missed any tutoring time. She was able to identify my daughter's weaknesses and addressed them from the get go. She's very honest and cares about her students. I would definitely recommend Gil to anyone in need of the tutoring services that she offers.

Revington G. from Springfield Gardens, NY I would have to rate her as competent, caring and practical. You can only work with what you have. Most students seeking tutoring are average or a little disadvantaged. I see that she is aware of what she has to work with and is capable of producing positive results.

Stacie L. from Brooklyn, NY It was a great pleasure with selecting Ms. Gilant to tutor my son. Although I hired her February to help my son with his State Exams for Elementary school, she was still very helpful in helping my son pass both of his state exams. Ms. G is very patient and strict (in a nice way) don't play around, gets down to business to get the job done. She is a very polite person that travels all over to help students in need. Ms. G also helped my son with subjects for the exam that his school teacher hadn't even covered yet but she tutored my son and helped him be more knowledgeable for his tests. She was also on time and never rushed when time was up for the sessions. Yes she gives homework but that helped my son even more and got him more ready for his tests. Thank you so much Ms. G for all your help, I will make sure to keep her phone # for the future and for any parent I know who child my need a little help and a extra push.

Cynthia B. from Jamaica, NY Ms Gilant is a great tutor, she is patient and she explains the work to you. My daughter had to take the Living environment regent but she could not understand her teacher (heavy accent) so I hired Ms Gilant, and my daughter got much better in class and she understood the work, her last session was a day before the Regent and my daughter left out of the school after taking the Regent test feeling GREAT because she knew what was on the test due to the last session she had with Ms Gilant. I've recommend other parents to contact Ms Gilant if their children needs help with their school work.

ANTOINETTE K. from Brooklyn, NY My tutor Ms Gilant is an amazing & dynamic person. From day one she took my baby girl under her wing and pulled her self esteem up to the level where it should be. My daughter is very confident now and is willing to sit down to take a test fearlessly. Months ago I could not have said that! She had 2 regents to conquer & Ms. Gil stood by her side With tolerance of "I don't know or I forgot" Ms. Gil was very firm & was determined to the passing of those regents. Well for History her hardest subject she scored a 75%. Tomorrow is Living Environment and I already know she'll ace that one too. As soon as the results are in I, the proud mother, will post.THANK YOU Ms. Gil for your HARD WORK & DEDICATION.

Dominique C. from Elmont, NY Ms. Gil has been working with my daughter for the past couple of months to prepare her for the SAT. I don't know how my daughter fared on the SAT yet, however, I think the decision to get private tutoring and use Ms. Gil was the best thing I could have possibly done. She is serious about the work she does and motivates the students to perform. I appreciate the time and energy she put into my daughter, and regardless of the SAT score, I know my daughter learned skills that will carry her throughout life. Thanks Ms. Gil!

Tamara I. from Brooklyn, NY I met Gilant as a struggling college math student and she gave me the tools to succeed! I can honestly say that with her assistance, I was able to pass a math course that I previously failed 3 times prior to her tutoring! She is patient, understanding, and explains generally difficult concepts so effortlessly it makes math fun and challenging. After each session, I felt confident and reassured that I could tackle my exams successfully. I passed my CUNY Compass Exam this week and I couldn?t be more thrilled. Take it from someone who thought she would NEVER pass math, Gilant is a Godsend!

With the new common core standards, it's been a challenge for her to adjust to the new curriculum. Thankfully, I was able to find Miss Gil.

Morgan H. from Jamaica, NY Ms. Gilant tutored my son in 3rd grade Math & English. When my son started he had trouble with writing summaries about what he read & breaking down words that he doesn't know to pronounce. In Math he just had problems identifying the key words. Ms. Gilant gave him great tips to help him work through his issues. My son had great improvement in both his English & Math. He's a better reader & can better identify the math problems. She also helped him prepare for the ELA & Math State test. He passed & now we're onto the 4th grade.

Katherine S. from Brooklyn, NY Gilant was everything that my son needed. She assessed where he was in his math skills and worked diligently with him. She understood his fears. She never gave up on him, and helped him to believe in his abilities to pass his Regents. She accomplished in three weeks that which no amount of summer school or other prep classes had been able to do over the past three years. My son did not merely pass, but earned a 79 on his regents. Gilant is a marvelous tutor. She always responded to any question or concern I had in a prompt manner. I would have no hesitation in recommending her to anyone who has a child needing help in math.

Pauline D. from Jamaica, NY Ms. Gil is an excellent teacher who dedicates herself daily for her students. Seeing the success of her students is what she works to achieve everyday. She is very committed to her students and work just as hard as they do to ensure their success. This is not just a job because I can tell by her dedication and patience that she loves and enjoys tutoring these students and loves to see them succeed. I started using her a year ago with my daughter in eighth grade to tutor her in math and science. She was struggling at the beginning of the years especially in science and math with her average not higher than in the 70's and 80's. However by the end of the year with the help of Ms. Gil her average skyrocketed up to 92% in science and her math average was also above 90%. For the first time because of Ms. Gil, she made the Honor Roll and graduated with Honors with her overall average above 90%. My daughter just started her first year in high school and I am still using Ms. Gil to tutor her because I believe with her help my daughter will continue to do well in school in math, earth science and whatever other class she may find challenging. Thanks again Ms. Gil for all the help, interest, patience, and dedication you showed my daughter. You help her not just academically but you also built her confidence to work harder and challenge those harder classes she always fear especially math and science. Would I recommend Ms. Gil? MOST DEFINITELY!
