With over 15 years of teaching experience, I specialize in keeping young children motivated and engaged. In addition to providing academic support in subjects such as phonics, reading, and math, I also offer private tutoring services tailored to individual needs. By incorporating creative real-world examples, I help children develop practical skills that fuel their academic progress. I am also skilled in teaching chess, an essential skill that teaches complex thinking, pattern recognition, and other valuable life lessons. Contact me to learn more about why chess is a versatile and beneficial activity for you and your child to learn.
Please note that I offer virtual tutoring sessions via Zoom, Skype, Whats App or Google Meet. Additionally, I kindly request that all participants check their internet connection 15-20 minutes before the scheduled start time to avoid any technical difficulties. Parents should also note that investing time in academic support is essential for improving grades. If your child is struggling in any subject, I recommend allocating one hour per session for effective tutoring.
To get in touch with me, please reach out via Zoom or Google Meet, as I do not have a website. I strongly believe in face-to-face interactions and look forward to meeting you and your child! I use Square Invoice for payment processing.

Using a vast amount of experience and resources, Miss Kathy instructs both children and novice players in the foundational aspects of chess, regardless of age. Her educational plan encompasses everything from the basic movements of each individual chess piece, to competing in and documenting tournament-style play from start to finish. Miss Kathy's pedagogical approach is lucid, well-timed, and effortlessly comprehensible.

Miss Kathy has been working with my 8-year-old son for the last three months, and we are extremely satisfied with our decision. Her patience and diligence have helped our son improve his skills and learn more in this brief period. Moreover, her flexibility with scheduling has been a big help for us, considering our busy work schedules. If you're seeking an expert and dependable teacher, choose Miss Kathy, and you won't be disappointed. We strongly recommend Miss Kathy.

My daughter is facing difficulties with reading and is lagging behind in academics. Katherine has been providing her with guidance for the last month, resulting in a substantial improvement. Katherine is a knowledgeable and patient teacher who understands my daughter's needs and interests, and tailors the lessons accordingly. Regular updates from Katherine have enabled me to assist my child's learning process. The homework that Katherine assigns has offered me ideas on how to support my daughter's literacy throughout the week. We are thrilled to continue working with Katherine throughout the summer, and we believe that with her help, my daughter can significantly enhance her reading skills.
