Test-Taking Expert from Harvey Mudd College
Hi, I'm Kathryn, and I've been tutoring for ten years. I earned my degree in Molecular Biology from Harvey Mudd College, one of the nation's top math, science, and engineering colleges.
I started tutoring when I was at Harvey Mudd for an organization called Upward Bound. I'd wake up early every Saturday morning to help low-income, high-potential students with their math homework. Upon graduation, I joined Wyzant's platform and built my own tutoring business. I specialize in the medical...

Amazing Tutor for Improving Test Taking Strategies (STEP 2CK)
Kathryn is great at identifying problems in how I break down questions and manage my attention. These seemingly small changes can result in big improvements. Before I tutored with Kathryn I wondered if my content knowledge was lacking. After working with her I realize my issues were with test taking strategies. I highly recommend Kathryn to anyone who is taking a big exam.

USMLE Step 2 CK Tutor- Knowledgeable and Patient.
Kathryn and I have been working together to prepare for the Step 2 CK examination. Today we focused on answering questions in a timed setting. Focusing on reading the clinical vignette silently and on the answer choices, helped me arrive at the correct answers. I have seen my scores improve overall, and Kathryn’s mentorship has helped me with my overall progress Thank you, Kathryn!

Knowledgeable, Competent and Highly Professional
If you are looking for a knowledgeable, competent and highly professional tutor, you can stop right now because Kathryn is the one. Since Kathryn offered us a 20 minute free consultation, it was very easy to make a decision for my daughter (previously we had unsuccessful experiences with two other tutors). My daughter needed some help with her AP chemistry and the first lesson with Kathryn was so helpful that we have decided to schedule two regular sessions a week. Now if my daughter doesn’t quite get certain notions during her school AP chemistry class, she knows that Kathryn will find the way to explain it to her. Kathryn knows how to listen to my daughter and address whatever challenges she might have. Kathryn has multiple ways of approaching complex subjects and breaking them down into ‘digestible pieces’ (bonus: Kathryn is fun, too). In short, my daughter is super happy with Kathryn’s style of teaching .

Knowledgeable and patient tutor.
Kathryn is very knowledgeable, patient, and encouraging. When I had trouble understanding certain math concepts on the CBEST practice tests she took the time to explain various ways to solve the problems. Kathryn also gave me practice problems to do in between our tutoring sessions, which was very helpful.

Best tutoring experience yet.
My daughter was able to understand and complete her homework independently after a session with Kathryn. She explains concepts in a way that anyone can understand. We are so glad to have found her, thank you!

Kathryn has been so patient with me and helpful. We have been working together everyday to prep for my final. She is so knowledgeable about all the topics we have covered and is easily able to explain things so I can understand them. Kathryn has been helping me feel more confident in my chemistry practices. She is a gem I highly recommend!

Knowledgeable and a great teacher
Kathryn just started tutoring our son in AP Calculus and she's doing a terrific job of breaking down difficult subject matter in a way that he can understand. She is also very very flexible with time which helps us out so much.
