About Katie

Experience: 3 yrs

Hello! I am a veteran special education teacher with reading and behavioral strategist endorsements, as well as 15 years of teaching experience. My teaching focuses on specially designed instruction in the areas of reading, writing, math, and behavior. I was honored to be named Norwalk's Teacher of the Year in 2026 because of my belief that all students can learn and that everyone learns differently. My tutoring approach involves building learning opportunities around each student's individual strengths, interests, and needs. I begin the tutoring process with a series of assessments to ensure that our time together is targeted and purposeful. I encourage open communication and am flexible with scheduling, as needed. I am supportive of all family structures. I'm excited to work with you to help your child find success!

We love working with Katie. She has been tutoring my middle school son in reading/writing. And the methods and tools she use are just outstanding. She has a way of making things really click and we’ve seen such an improvement in my son! Not to mention, Katie is an absolute joy to work with. She goes above and beyond. We couldn’t have asked for a better tutor.
