Gabrielle Crichlow is the esteemed captain of A Step Ahead Tutoring Services. She brings a wealth of academic excellence as well as a proven record of tutoring. Gabrielle received her master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from St. John's University in 2015. While she attended the university, she worked for two “supplemental education services” companies that partnered with New York City schools. Because they partnered with the schools, she was able to provide between 20 and 26 free hours of tutoring to students every year. While she was working at both companies, she saw the academic struggles of low-income and middle-income families that were disproportionately African-American, Hispanic, and South Asian. She believed that the allotment of hours - 20 to 26 hours of tutoring for the entire year - was definitely not enough for them. Furthermore, Gabrielle believed that these students tended to be misdiagnosed with learning disabilities, almost illiterate, and undereducated. She reached a point when she realized that these students deserved more than the limited services these companies offered them. It was at this moment that a light bulb went off in her head - "I’ll start my own company!" Gabrielle's experiences in graduate school provided her with the insight she needed to excel at and enjoy tutoring while inspiring other tutors to do the same. Then she founded A Step Ahead Tutoring Services in 2013 and has operated it ever since.
