About Kathryn

Empowering elementary students to reach their full potential is the core of my professional mission. With 36 years of experience and a graduate degree, I specialize in Math, English, and Special Education. I hold certifications as a Certified teacher and in Individualized Education Programs (IEP). I believe every student possesses unique potential, and I foster this by creating an engaging, patient environment. I assess your child's learning style through active observation, tailoring my approach with visual aids, discussions, or hands-on practice. By breaking complex problems into manageable steps and celebrating small wins, I help students build lasting confidence. Clear, consistent communication with families is vital to our collaborative success. I find the greatest joy in witnessing that "aha!" moment when a concept finally clicks. I look forward to supporting your child's growth and helping them thrive in their academic journey.
