Gail Ann Fitka
Teacher Aide
Gail was born in Bethel, Alaska, 1971. She was raised by her gram,
Anna Teganlakla. She grew up here in Marshall and has lived here all
of her life. She went to school here for eleven and a half years and
to Mt. Edgecumbe for a half year. She graduated here on May
12,1989.
Gail went to college at the University of Alaska, Fairbanks, and
studied Elementary Education, but she did not graduate. She has
worked here at Marshall School as a teacher aide since October,1991.
She plans to work here until she is ready to go back to college. She
really likes her job because she's always wanted to be a teacher. She
also likes her job because it gives her experience before she becomes
a teacher.
Before she got her job as a teacher aide she worked as a computer
aide here. At that time she was trained in how to use the four
Atari's the school had. After a few months Olga and Gail switched
jobs and then Gail was trained in how to be a Special Ed. aide. Now
that Gail has her job, she still has to attend workshops held by the
L.Y.S.D. where she learns about I.E.P.'s and all the other paperwork
in Special Ed. She feels very strongly that her job keeps her
stimulated because she is working with children whose special needs
must be met. She says that you have to teach them in special ways in
which they will learn and understand, and that you have to reteach
everything.
The best thing about her job she says is seeing the children
interested in learning. The worst thing is having to take the
children to the office for bad behavior.
She has a family of three boys and one girl. She feels it is very
difficult to work sometimes, especially when she has a hard time
finding a babysitter.
