I am a retired special education teacher with 25 years in Jefferson Parish. My passion is working with the special needs student; however, I do work with regular education students that are struggling.

My son has been tutored by Kathy for months in an effort to obtain his GED. My son required a tutor who understood children with ADHD. Kathy understands his difficulties in learning and moves at a pace he can tolerate. She is patient, understanding, and cooperative. She works with him on meeting times and location. Very good tutor.

Kathy just started working with my daughter. Kathy is extremely patient and supportive which has resonated very well with my little girl, in fact in just a short time my daughter is finally making progress on multiplication.

Kathy is accommodating and willing to tailor her lesson according to my son's needs. Needed math tutoring and was able to help him review for his test.

Kathy was great with our daughter. Our daughter had a meltdown and Kathy helped her work through it. I think this tutor/student relationship will be successful because of Kathy's calm demeanor and kindness. Thank you Kathy!

Kathy is a wonderful tutor. She is really helping my son a lot. Her teaching method is excellent. My son says he has learned so much ever since Kathy has been tutoring him. He has more confidence in himself. He is finally able to see the light at the end of the tunnel. Thank you Kathy!!!

Kathy has been great with 2 special students. They need a lot of patience and encouragement, and she has met that and more. She has shown more interest, given her personal time, and has been a great help for these 2 students. I appreciate all that she is doing.
