Program Overview
While I work with all profiles of students, I specialize in helping STEM-minded students make sense of the humanities.
To do this, I use language and structure that is already familiar to STEM-minded students. I break esoteric humanities concepts down into structures and formulae that, when applied, produce positive results every time.
The toolkit I teach is flexible enough that each student’s own voice is front and center, while still reliably answering the question, “What does my teacher expect of me?”
I’m Kate, an educator with eleven years of experience in teaching K–12 & college humanities subjects. I hold an MA in Anthropology and have recently served as an administrator at a local college preparatory school, building bespoke plans for college-bound students. I’ve also tutored high-achieving students in person in the Greater Seattle area & Bay Area for five years.
My experience gives me a degree of familiarity with the expectations of today’s educational system; I have served for over a decade in education, I’ve instructed K–12 as well as college-level courses, and I’ve worked within both public and private systems across multiple states (including as an administrator).
I’ve also presented for a College Board panel discussion on college essay writing due to my success with students preparing to enter elite colleges and universities.
