Kate

Certified Tutor

I am a recent graduate of Eastern Kentucky University and received Bachelor's of Sciences in chemistry and physics. During my years in university, I was not just a tutor, but a peer mentor to students, where students and tutors were encouraged to establish a mentoring relationship to help students adjust and succeed in college. While I tutor in a broad range of math and chemistry subjects, I am most passionate about tutoring general chemistry/AP Chemistry and calculus, because both subjects will help students understand that science is more than a series of dry facts to memorize, rather a process of understanding the physical universe. In my experience, helping students make sense of the fundamental concepts in calculus and chemistry leads the students to achieve remarkable progress and have the most fun. I believe that education leads to not only a deeper understanding of the world, but a better appreciation of life, which is something I want to show to all my students. In my spare time, I enjoy reading about space, baking, and watching movies.
