About Katherine

Unlocking a child's potential through creativity is at the heart of my teaching practice. With over three years of experience supporting toddler, TK & elementary-age students, I believe a play-based approach ensures students retain knowledge while truly enjoying the learning process. I prioritize building trust first, which allows me to patiently guide students through difficult art concepts and help them develop the confidence to think beyond the standard curriculum. I assess each student's unique style through open communication, remaining flexible to adapt my methods to their specific interests. By celebrating small successes and encouraging curiosity through interactive discussion, I keep students motivated even when facing challenges. I value consistent collaboration with families to create a supportive environment. Whether we meet at your home, the library, or online, I look forward to helping your child discover the joy of learning while being their authentic selves.
