Katherine Saul is an educator, curriculum designer, and creative facilitator with nearly twenty years of experience helping students discover the joy of learning. She has taught in public, charter, independent, and virtual schools, designing interdisciplinary courses that blend literature, creative and analytical writing, history, outdoor adventure, and authentic inquiry. Katherine believes the best learning begins with curiosity, grows through meaningful relationships, and inspires students to ask big questions about themselves and the world.
I believe the best learning begins with curiosity and relationships. Before students can take intellectual risks or discover what they're capable of, they need to feel known, respected, and encouraged. My goal is to create learning experiences that invite students to ask big questions, think deeply, and develop confidence in their own ideas.
Project-based learning is at the heart of my teaching because it allows students to explore meaningful questions, connect ideas across disciplines, and create work with real purpose. Whether we're discussing a novel, exploring the world, designing a civilization, or investigating the science of the teenage brain, I want students to experience learning as an adventure—one that connects literature, history, science, creativity, and the world around them.
Above all, I hope students leave my classes with more than stronger reading and writing skills. I hope they leave believing their curiosity matters, their voice has value, and they have the confidence to make a meaningful contribution to their communities and the wider world.
