Thriving Tutors
As a freshly-minted teacher, I started private tutoring in 2018 to gain experience working with students and earn some money. After gaining more experience in the classroom, tutoring was an opportunity for me to find peace and joy in teaching while helping my students make tremendous progress. Their academic growth and confidence was so rewarding! The extra income was also greatly appreciated and helped pay a few bills each month.
Fast forward a few more years, tutoring became my life raft. The classroom was no longer a place where I felt safe or happy, so I left to take my tutoring business full-time in June 2024. I quickly matched my teaching salary and have now exceeded it in April, 2025, all while working with students for less than 20 hours each week. I choose the students and families that I get to work with, and I get to decide what my days look like.
It hasn't been easy learning how to start a business, marketing, finding students, or handling taxes, I figured it out and you can too! Not only is it possible to start a thriving tutoring business, but it could be better than you ever dreamed!
Whether you are looking for an extra income, your own life raft, or something in between, let me guide you every step of the way!

I had a one on one Zoom call with Katelin, and let me just say it was the best and most productive hour I’ve spent with someone in a long time! I am beginning to tutor students but really have no idea how to start up. I literally told her I need her to hold my hand in the beginning as I have no idea how to begin with contracts, scheduling, pricing etc. Katelin was so easy to talk to and reassured me that this is doable and I WILL earn an extra income! I never felt rushed talking with her (even though we spoke for longer than the scheduled hour). I feel very optimistic and know that working with her is going to change my life!! Taking a chance on her is taking a chance on YOU! Let’s do this!!
