About Kathleen

I have 15 years of expeience as an elementary school teacher. I specialize as a reading interventionist, and part time reading tutor in low income public schools.

I can teach any kid to read.

Teaching literacy is near and dear to my heart. It is a passion of mine and I am good at it.

I graduated from the University of Northern Colorado in 2009. My teaching career was spent in Denver Public Schools for 14 years. I left the classroom to travel the world.

I taught in Denver Public Schools, all Title 1, schools right out of high school. My senior year I held an internship in a Kinder classroom in Aurora. Then as I earned my BA from UNC I taught in elementary classrooms under the supervision of licensed teachers. After graduating in 2009 I spent another 7 years teaching second grade at Castro Elementary School in DPS.

I've spent over 10 years teaching guided reading in primary classrooms.

About the lesson

To find an accurate reading level for my students I assess them individually using 3-5 different literacy assessment programs. I use Fountas & Pinnel, DRA, Running Records, Readinga-z, etc.

I have work with low income students my whole career. I've also worked struggling readers. Usually I am able to help students who are two+ years behind in their reading skills reach "grade level" by the end of 9 months of reading intervention work (small group instruction).

I was a struggling reader myself in the elementary school. I know how difficult & frustrating it can be to learn how to read. However, I over came the struggle and by the time I was in sixth grade I was one of the top readers in my class.
I know where the tricks and traps are in the English language. I can help you!

I spend all of my free time outside on type 2 & type 3 adventures. I spent summer 2021 hiking on the Pacific Crest Trail. Then during the fall and winter I spent my free time playing in the slot canyons in the Southern Utah desert. Canyoneering is my jam!
