Meet Katherine

My name is Katherine and I am an extremely creative and enthusiastic person. I have had over 10 years experience working with children. I received my Bachelors degree from Grand Canyon University in Elementary and Special Education. I have taught children K-3rd grade and have worked with K-12 grade children with mild to severe disabilities. My expertise includes academic tutoring, behavior management, creative and fun activities, and providing a clean and comfortable environment. I am easy going and have a great sense of humor, which makes it very easy to get along with people. I am an active person, so I find it enjoyable to take part in playtime, art projects, community outings, and outdoor activities. I think education is very important and I view every day as an opportunity to teach something new, no matter what age the child is. That can include anything from motor-skills, reading, baking, educational Read more games, learning a new sport or trips to a museum. I am also very hard working, trustworthy, fun, reliable, and most importantly patient. I enjoy doing light housekeeping and cooking for the family! My overall goal is to create a safe, nurturing place for the children and a stress free environment for everyone in the family! I have impeccable references upon request. I look forward to meeting you soon!
