Hello, I'm Kathleen. I bring a thoughtful and compassionate approach to teaching, shaped by my educational journey and a genuine commitment to creating supportive learning environments. I hold a Bachelor's in Elementary Education, a Masters in Curriculum and Instruction, and I recently completed coursework to become a principal. In addition, I hold teaching licenses in two states. My academic background has given me both subject-matter expertise and a strong foundation in communication and pedagogy.

With experience spanning twenty-six years, I has worked with students across a range of age groups, from three years old to high school seniors. I have provided instruction in both formal classroom settings and more intimate one-on-one or small group sessions, including volunteer roles that reflect my dedication to equitable access to learning.

My teaching style is rooted in connection. I pay close attention to how each student learns best and tailor my approach accordingly, whether that means using inquiry-based learning to spark curiosity or building step-by-step scaffolding to help concepts stick. I see every teaching moment as an opportunity to build trust and empower growth—not just academically, but personally too.

My undergraduate degree is Elementary Education with minors in Early Childhood Education, English, and French. I hold a teaching license for K-6th grades in Illinois and a teaching certificate for K-8th grades in Michigan. Over the course of my career, I have taught students in preschool through middle school which has equipped me with a strong foundation in both child development and language instruction.
