About Catherine

Empowering students to reach their full potential is at the heart of my teaching practice. With six years of experience as a special educator, I focus on building confidence and fostering a genuine love for learning rather than simple memorization. My background includes implementing Individualized Education Programs (IEP) and 504 plans, as well as providing behavior interventions. I adapt my methods by using visual aids, hands-on activities, and open communication to suit your unique learning style. I prioritize celebrating small successes and maintaining a supportive, patient environment to keep students engaged. Because I have extensive experience with diverse learners, I am well-equipped to support your academic goals in Math, English, Science, and Special Education. I truly value building a strong, collaborative rapport with families, and I look forward to helping your student shine this summer.
