About Katherine

My profile is on LinkedIn

I am an experienced college biology faculty member and enjoy making biology relevant to people who find it confusing.

I first discover student interests, strengths, and learning styles and tailor my tutoring accordingly. My style is being a "guide by the side" rather than a "sage on the stage".

By accident. I applied for a lab manager position at Muskingum College in New Concord Ohio, but when I went to the interview, I as asked if I woudl instead be willing to teach freshman biology. The person who was originally hired couldn't come at the last minute. I was a sabbatical replacement for the head of the department. I found at the end of that year, I really liked teaching, so I got my master's degree in Biology and continued to teach at the college level.

BA in Zoology, MA in Biology, 30 years of college classroom and lab instruction.

About the lesson

I first ask about a student's interests, what they do for fun, what kind of learning is easiest for them. It's important for students to realize their learning strengths and then create a learning climate that builds on their strengths thus building their confidence.

Beisdes biology students, I have worked with students with special learning needs, particularly those with reading difificulties. This was when I was asked to develop a progam for students with disabilities at Aoka-Ramsey Community College. I have also taught a study skills class to college students in many different majors. From these experiences I discovered that each person has a specific way of processing and retaining information. I focus on how students learn and supporting those individual skills when teaching course content.
