About Katie
I am a current PA certified high school math teacher with 13 years of experience teaching 9th grade Algebra 1 straight through 12th grade AP Calculus. I love math and helping students to understand math. I also offer an SAT prep crash course if you're looking to improve your math scores before the next round of testing.

watching students "get it" and getting over the hurdle of the fear of math
I was that kid who knew she wanted to be a teacher from elementary school on...
I have a B.S. in secondary education and a M.A. in mathematics, so I have the background I need in order to understand math deeply and see how things connect, and also the ability to communicate that knowledge in understandable ways.

With a new student I start by assessing the problem. Often with math struggles, there is an underlying lack of more basic skills making the problem at hand impossible until those skills are addressed.
math lovers, math haters, and everyone inbetween
When looking for upper-level math help, it's important to find a teacher. Many people who understand and love math are not particularly good at helping you to understand it.

Kate Mehmel is an incredible mathematician and teacher. She fostered interest and understanding in every level of math she taught me. I have gone on to pursue mathematics in higher education, and attribute a majority of my ability in and passion for the subject to Mrs. Mahmel.
She seeks to fully understand your questions before working to address them, then takes the time to clearly explain complex problems. She takes things step by step, making it easy to identify where your confusion occurs and helps you build upon the things you already understand. Additionally, she rewards success.
Mrs. Mehmel is one of the best teachers I have ever had. Math is already a difficult subject due to the material but also because many students have a natural aversion to it. She took that subject and made it interesting and enjoyable without watering it down in anyway.
I went to an Ivy League school and majored in Mathematical Economics and she is still the best and most competent math teacher I have ever had.Mrs. Mehmel is an amazing and engaging teacher. She is invested in her students and wants to see them succeed.
Makes math easy to understand and ensures that you truly understand the material before moving on.
She is amazing at explaining any concept you might not understand, and will take all of the time you need until you get it. Her teaching style is thorough without being boring, and understandable without being dumbed down. To this day, I only understand calculus because of her.
She was very patient in working with were I was and trying to get me caught up. I changed schools a lot which resulted in me taking pre-calc sans- algebra and Geometry. Very kind and gracious giving up numerous lunches to help me figure out how to factor and other math things.
Kate is a gifted teacher who communicates difficult subject matter well. Even though math was my weakest subject in high school, she taught in a way that was easy to understand and was able to talk me through the areas I struggled with the most. I appreciated the extra support she offered whenever it was needed.
Everything- her personality is amazing, she easily and slowly breaks down the problem, and will encourage you to the max. I really learned from her and enjoy working with her.
Caring, individualized approach. I loved her class!!
She made math fun and accessible even though it’s my least favorite subject. I never thought I could take calculus, but she helped me through and I even got college credit from my AP test score.
She really walked through each equation and problem with our class and helped me pass Algebra 2!
She was honestly the best, most patient math teacher ive ever had. It's been about 8 or 9 years since I had her as a teacher but I still remember not dreading her class. She answered all of my questions until I understood the concept and never made me feel stupid for not getting something.
Kate Mehmel was a phenomenal teacher. She could take any formula or mathmatical concept and make it manageable no matter what level of math her students were. She understood the balance of challenging her students to better them while taking the time to help them understand without leaving a single student behind. I have two sisters all of us at different levels of math. Both of my sisters struggled year after year in math and absolutely believed they hated math. Once they had Kate they were no longer struggling in math and began to take a liking to it.
Kate is a compassionate, patient, intelligent, and attentive math tutor. Her approach encourages critical thinking about the reasons behind “shortcuts” to math problems, leading to a deeper understanding of key concepts. She also has an infectious love for the subject matter that can make even the most math-averse student become intrigued and engaged. I had the privilege of taking advanced algebra and calculus with Kate in high school, and with her help I felt extremely well prepared for the AP Calculus exam and college-level math courses. She could not be more highly recommended.
I had Kate Mehmel as my high school math teacher for both Algebra II and Pre-calculus. She is very Knowledgeable about many types of math and does a great job of explaining how to complete the different kinds of problems. She will go at your speed and still manage to get you on track. She is also super nice and approachable and makes math tolerable, if not even fun. I’d definitely recommend Kate!
Kate is not only SUPER nice but such a patient teacher! I've always struggled with math, and Kate always explained things slowly and simply. I'd definitely recommend her to anyone looking for some math help!
