I LOVE to Learn and you can too!

Katie S.

With 17 years of experience in education, including 13 years teaching junior high science and 4 years teaching high school biology, I am excited about the opportunity to bring my extensive teaching background and passion for student success to your team. My experience, combined with my dedication to empowering students to become confident, independent learners, makes me confident in my ability to contribute to the success of students.

I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Kinesiology (College of Education), and over my career, I’ve taught students across a wide range of ages and academic levels. Throughout my 17 years of teaching, I have honed a flexible approach to instruction, using a variety of methods to meet the needs of diverse learners. Whether teaching in the classroom or providing one-on-one support, I focus on creating an engaging, personalized learning experience. I have worked with students in both junior high and high school settings, helping them to develop not only academic skills but also the confidence to take ownership of their learning.

In my science and biology courses, I have often incorporated real-world applications and interactive methods to keep students engaged, emphasizing the practical value of what they’re learning. I strive to connect lessons to each student’s interests, making complex topics more accessible and exciting. I have also worked extensively with students who needed additional support, offering extra help both in small group settings and through individualized tutoring sessions.

Sincerely,
Katie S.
