Hi! I'm Kate!! After getting my degrees in philosophy and education from the University of Notre Dame, I spent 2 years in full-time classroom teaching and enjoyed subbing and tutoring in between with kids of varying learning differences! After moving to Eugene, OR, from Houston, TX, I am happy to continue my work in education. I am passionate about fostering an authentic love of learning. 1) I prioritize cultivating students' trust in themselves and their abilities 2) Approaching problem-solving like a puzzle or quest to engage student curiosity 3) Patience and variety of intentional approaches to differing learning skills I can tutor all levels of math & literacy - Including the Singapore math curriculum, which I implemented in lessons at my previous school! My rate is $30 per hour- However, for 1 hr sessions booked once a week rather than 2+ hr sessions or 2+ days a week, my rate does increase. I am always happy to negotiate what rate you would feel most comfortable with!

Kate has been a game-changer for our son, a highschool sophomore who is bright and capable but hampered by struggles with focus and motivation. Aside from being unfailingly reliable, punctual, and considerate, Kate has been an invaluable tutor, bringing her knowledge and skills as a teacher along with compassion and gentle encouragement to help our son stay on task and more engaged with his school work. As a result, his grades and attitude toward school have improved dramatically. Highest recommendation.
