My name is Kate. I hold a Master's degree in Engineering. I have tutored over 2000 hours on Wyzant's platform (at least 4,000 hours lifetime).

I did a lot of peer tutoring in both undergraduate and graduate school as my greatest hobby. I am also familiar with several online High School Math courses. I am good at adapting to different learning styles which I have researched extensively to help my career in Software Industries with my background knowledge of Engineering, and am confident that I will increase the rate of my students' academic success.

I have helped hundreds of students starting with Pre Algebra through Pre Calculus. My goal is to help any student understands the materials, and prepare for Math, GRE, SAT, ACT, PSAT, SSAT, ISEE, HSPT (Math Sections only) and other aptitude and achievement exams in order to obtain a desired result in a very short amount of time.

Knowledgeable, Committed, and Patient Tutor

When my son was in first grade, a teacher told him that math is like brushing your teeth. It is something you have to do every day and it is something you can’t forget. Practice makes you better and the more you practice, the easier math gets. Just like brushing his teeth, my son works with Kate regularly. Kate has been a part of my 6th grade son’s learning for the last two years, meeting every Saturday morning at the library. Kate follows along with my son’s math curriculum at school, reinforcing what he has learned for the week and explaining problems that were not clear in the classroom. Her patience and commitment to helping my son is truly commendable. My son is a more confident test taker because of Kate. He achieves his academic goals for the year and Kate is instrumental in his math accomplishments. Kate is knowledgeable and is able to explain concepts clearly. Kate also helps my 9th grade son. Last year, she helped prepare my son for the High School Preparation Test. She is a great tutor for his Honors Algebra 1 class and will be helping him with Honors Geometry and SAT preparation soon. Kate is always a pleasure to work with. My sons used to ask me, “Why is Kate always smiling?” Kate is a happy and a pleasant person! She is helping both my sons reach their potential.

Great tutor for high school math!

Kate is patient, thorough and knowledgeable. I strongly recommend her for advanced high school math if your child has reached levels you'd prefer not to go back and slowly remember yourself.

Kris, 5 lessons with Kate

Built my confidence for the SAT

Very knowledgeable and really gave me the confidence to take the SAT. We reviewed several problems and techniques for what I could expect from the test. I can not thank Kate enough.

Jennifer, 1 lesson with Kate

Thank you, Kate

Kate was so helpful in supporting my daughter this year in Pre-Calculus. I highly recommend her if your child needs assistance. Thank you, Kate :)

Sangeeta, 60 lessons with Kate

Very helpful

She helped me solve twice as fast and she’s a very excellent teacher!! If I had to do my HW alone I would have taken 3x as long and would not have understood anything.
