Cat Smith

Originally from Dayton, Ohio, I moved to Washington DC to attend law school at George Washington University, where I am a 1L. I have worked with students as a teacher and tutor since completing my undergraduate studies at Kenyon College.

My first goal when working with students is to help them understand we are on the same team. Students will learn better in an environment where they have a trusting relationship with their teacher or tutor and are comfortable being themselves and making mistakes.

As an English language arts tutor, I encourage my tutees by creating a learning environment that builds their confidence. My style is more of a facilitator than a lecturer. I help my students develop self-reliance and the ability to reason through challenges they don’t understand at first so that as my session ends, they can continue to grow with the tools I have provided them.
