About Katie
As a PhD student specializing in History and Theology, I can help students of all levels with writing, English literature, History, and most humanities topics. I specialize in medieval history, but also have experience most topics in Western History to the present. I have a Master of Science from the University of Edinburgh in Book History and Material Culture, and my Bachelor of Arts in Communication and Literature from American University. Currently, I am at Durham University.
Academic writing is not all there is to life, however, and I can also assist in editing resumes, CVs, cover letters, and job applications. Previously, I've worked in financial marketing in New York and Washington, DC, so I know a thing or two about life outside of academia.
As a perpetual student myself, I love helping people learn. Though formal education is temporary for most, I believe I can help those who are willing to become a great student so they can achieve their life goals.
I have been teaching for as long as I remember, though my students were sometimes my brothers and parents. As a PhD student I am training to become a teacher and have previously given lectures and seminars for the past two years.
As a current PhD student and former career woman, I feel I have an appropriate amount of both work and academic experience to help students with whatever life may throw at them. I have experience planning, writing, and editing dissertations as well as job applications and cover letters. Hopefully some of my past can help another person's future.

Each student is a true individual and their tutoring should reflect that, rather than a "one-size-fits-all" policy. When first working with a new student, I like to get to know them a bit to understand what will work best for their learning. As time moves on, hopefully I can do my best to tailor my tutoring to their needs.
I am open to working with all kinds of students of all ages. If anyone is in need of help, I will do my best to assist.
Don't be shy in being honest. Find a teacher that suits you best so you can learn your best. Also, ask questions!
Recently I particpated in a Dholki, a Pakistani pre-wedding celebration centered around drumming, dancing, and food. Just from attending, I learned so much about the culture and the importance of the dhol. I even picked up a few words of Urdu!
A few things worth thinking about before reaching out
I would suggest students have a clear understanding of where they are struggling in a specific subject area, or have a piece of work ready to review. It is always easier when we can jump right in and get to work straight away.
