Experience
I'm Katie, a private tutor for math, science, and English, and I'd love to help you master your classes! ABOUT ME I'm a fun, passionate college student studying aerospace engineering at Texas A&M. My first teaching experience was designing a supplemental science curriculum called Rocket Science that taught home educated middle school students about astronomy and engineering. After that I was hooked on teaching! There's nothing I enjoy more than watching a student's face light up when they master a difficult concept, and I celebrate every one of their victories with praise and encouragement so that they always feel confident in their abilities. MATH Whether it's geometry, business math, algebra, trigonometry or calculus, I always enjoy helping people with math. I use pictures, mnemonics, hands-on demonstrations, and other techniques to help math "click" for visual and kinetic learners who may have had trouble in the past. I'd love to show you why you don't have to be an engineer like me to have fun with math! SCIENCE I love helping kids learn something new in any area, but sciences like physics and chemistry are my favorite subjects to teach because I get to share so many cool demonstrations and stories. Whether we're playing with Slinkys while learning about harmonic motion or building model rockets to study Newton's Laws, I'm always having just as much fun as the student is! ENGLISH I received a 5 on the AP English Language and Composition test, the highest score possible, giving me college credit for both English I and English II. In high school I tutored 20 other students in English with a focus on the SAT and ACT essay sections. In college I work as a freelance editor helping friends and companies perfect their writing. Want to improve your writing style? Message me and lets get started! Just want a pro to look over your essay? Send it to me and I'll proofread it for free! I'm available almost any times on the weekends, but since I am still a student at Texas A&M, my weekday schedules change often. Contact me to find out about my current weekday availability.

Hobbies
I'm always working on engineering projects. Some of my work includes projects for Boeing, Lockheed Martin, Bell Helicopter, and Made in Space Inc. My most recent project was leading a design team in SpaceX's Hyperloop Challenge. I am the oldest of four kids in my family, a passionate Aggie, and a huge space nerd! Whether it's watching sci-fi shows (Star Trek, Doctor Who, and Firefly are favorites), launching model rockets, or teaching middle school students about rocket science, I am always ready to do anything related to space!
