"Hi! I’m Kathy, an experienced elementary educator with a wealth of expertise in fostering academic growth and a genuine love for making learning an exciting journey. As a former elementary teacher and literacy specialist for a national tutoring program, I have honed my skills to tailor instruction to meet individual needs, ensuring each student reaches his/her full potential.

I hold elementary education degrees from Mississippi State University and The University of Southern Mississippi. Since 2020, I have worked an independent education consultant, traveling to schools to provide targeted teacher coaching and student support. My commitment to enhancing educational experiences has been a driving force in my consulting work.

Beyond the classroom, I am a published author of children's books. This firsthand experience with creating engaging and educational content allows me to infuse creativity into my teaching methods. My teaching philosophy revolves around making learning not just informative but also enjoyable. I believe that a positive and engaging atmosphere is key to unlocking a student's full potential.

I take pride in my enduring relationships with students. For instance, I have had the privilege of tutoring a student from preschool through second grade, witnessing her growth and even assisting in the publication of her first book, available on Amazon. My current students love our sessions, a testament to my ability to connect with learners of diverse backgrounds and learning styles.

Because I adhere to a full schedule, I kindly require that cancellations be submitted 24 hours in advance. With a proven track record of success, a passion for learning, and a commitment to making education enjoyable, I am confident in my ability to support and guide students toward academic excellence!" less...
