Kids and their parents love Janiece Gratch!
Janiece is currently on family leave. We hope she will be back soon!
Janiece tutors the majority of students in our programs. She brings years of experience to the task and we love is that even years after their ceremonies students speak excitedly about how fun and achievable Janiece made the process.
Janiece Gratch lives in Denver Colorado and works with students all over the world via Zoom or Facetime. She knows how to connect!
Janiece has worked in the field of Jewish education for the last twenty-five years. Janiece received her Master of Science in Jewish Education from Spertus College of Jewish Studies in Chicago. She has worked with students of all ages, from toddlers to college students, but loves middle schoolers most of all.
She began her career as a Judaic Studies teacher and later became the director of Solomon Schechter Academy in Oklahoma City. Janiece became the Hebrew School Director of Temple B’nai Israel in 2002 and retired in May 2017. While at Temple B’nai Israel, Janiece worked as the B’nai Mitzvah Tutor.
Janiece takes the commandment l’dor vador- from generation to generation seriously. Her philosophy is to make sure every student will be competent and confident not only for their Bar or Bat Mitzvah ceremony but throughout their lives as Jewish adults. Janiece builds rapport with the students and their families and the students always feel comfortable working with her
She received her Bachelor of Science in Zoology from Oklahoma State University. She has a great love of the outdoors and is an avid birdwatcher.
