Hi! I'm Katherine, and I am currently completing a Master of Science in Oral Health Sciences at Boston University, with an expected graduation date of August 2026. Through my graduate studies, I have developed a strong foundation in anatomy, physiology, biology, chemistry, and other health sciences, and I enjoy helping students break down complex concepts into manageable and understandable pieces. Alongside my passion for science, I have always enjoyed art and creativity. I have completed college-level art and drawing courses and continue to enjoy drawing, painting, and scientific illustration. As a visual learner myself, I often use diagrams, drawings, and creative study techniques to help students better understand and retain challenging concepts.
My teaching experience began at home, where I regularly helped my five younger siblings with homework, studying, and test preparation. As I advanced through college, I also worked privately as a paid tutor, providing one-on-one academic support in introductory biology and chemistry. These experiences taught me that every student learns differently, and I enjoy adapting my teaching style to fit each student's needs, learning style, and goals.
In addition to tutoring, I have several years of experience working in healthcare settings, including oral surgery and general dentistry, where communication, patient education, and attention to detail were essential. I also have extensive experience preparing for standardized exams, including college entrance exams and the Dental Admission Test (DAT). Through my own academic journey, I have developed effective study strategies, test-taking skills, and organizational techniques that I enjoy sharing with students. My goal is to help students build confidence, strengthen their understanding, and achieve success in science, test preparation, and the arts. I welcome questions from students and parents and look forward to helping each student reach their full potential.
