Katherine

As a Ph.D. student in Computational and Applied Mathematics at the University of Chicago, with a Bachelor's in Mathematics from MIT, I am passionate about making mathematics accessible and engaging for all learners. My experience as a teaching assistant for calculus courses has honed my ability to design effective problem sets and lead dynamic recitations, while also providing personalized support through office hours and one-on-one tutoring. I strive to create a supportive learning environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and exploring concepts. My teaching philosophy centers on patience, encouragement, and tailored lessons that align with each student's unique goals and learning style. I am dedicated to helping students build both their mathematical skills and their confidence, ensuring they can tackle challenges with a sense of accomplishment.

I enjoy painting and playing guitar!
