About Katherine
I’m a teacher who has worked all over the world from Sudan to the UK. I have worked with students ranging in age from 5 to 18. Recently, I had to escape a war-torn country - Sudan - with my husband and two children. As I love to write, I may turn this adventure into a book. Now I am looking forward to seeing the next chapter.

It’s all about communication between teacher: student, teacher: parent, and teacher: student: parent. I treasure the connections made between each member of the team. As a teacher, I discovered that the way forward is through the best scientific evidence of how students learn. As a teacher, I am always looking at the latest research and incorporating it into my practice.

Excellent Teacher was head teacher in her former school in Sudan I highly recommend her
Kathy is a very kind, patient teacher / tutor . She understands how children learn and develop and treats every child individually, giving them their own unique learning plan which is extensively researched, planned, adapted and implemented by Kathy herself.
Personally Kathy has helped me to over come any fears and obstacles in teaching my own children and also helped to develop my own skills as a Early Years teacher .
I can't thank Kathy enough for her patience, kindness and overall positivity.
Her knowledge, skills and passion for teaching is one in a million. X
I have known Katherine since 2012 when we taught together at Unity High School in Sudan. From the moment I met Katherine I knew she had a deep passion and love for all things teaching and had a way of engaging others and sparking their own love for lifelong learning.
Katherine sees the very best in every person and will without doubt bring out the very best in a person. She is open minded in her thinking, collaborative in her teaching and learning style and will teach broadly and widely and students will be enriched in so many ways and in so many dimensions. I highly recommend Katherine - she will continue to impress!Have known Kathy for a number of years and always known her to be kind and thoughtful, and she has a wealth of teaching experience to draw from.
I would really recommend Katherine as she is a true lily dedicated and well trained teacher. She has worked with all ages with students from all over the world! My son always loved coming in to her class as he was always greater with a smile and she really knew how to motivate him. Wendy Bekkenk, former teacher and mother of Bennoi, then grade 2. Katherine and I met as colleagues at KICS she was a great colleague and teacher! International school Sudan.
Did amazing work with my two kids, made them love education in a way which isn't provided in the school's, also did great work with my son who has a speech impediment couldn't recommend Katherine enough she made learning fun for them
Amazing teacher, she opened a support school -Blank Walls- in Sudan . Her reputation is amazing, especially because she manages to change non-readers kids - or kids with learning difficulties - into passionate and independent readers. With an extensive knowledge of how to teach to various type of kids, She succeeded to adapt her teachings to my 7yo son and give him the taste to read. She used a lots of play based, action based teaching (English second language in our family)
She also taught my daughter how to write in style in English.
My daughter later on received a writing first prize at her international school .
Thank you Katherine for your support!
I would highly recommend Katherine for her professionalism, her dedication and her high quality teaching.
