About Katie

With over 10 years of experience, I'm passionate about helping elementary students unlock their potential. I empower them to develop critical thinking and problem-solving skills for long-term success. I adapt my teaching by varying strategies, encouraging open communication, and seeking feedback. I keep students motivated by connecting topics to their interests, celebrating successes, and breaking down problems. I'm a certified teacher experienced with Individualized Education Programs (IEP) and student accommodation plans (504). Communication is essential for understanding needs and building trust. Witnessing a student's "aha!" moment is the most rewarding aspect of tutoring. I would love to help your student succeed!
