Katharine Covino is a college professor who teaches teachers how to teach. She’s been a teacher for almost 20 years.

She’s interested in finding ways of helping young teachers who are just starting out. She also writes about her work asking young kids interesting and tough questions. She believes that all students should be able to see themselves reflected in the books and stories they read.

When she’s not teaching or writing, Katharine tries to keep up with her kids. Despite her very best efforts, they are all faster swimmers, hikers, and skiers than she is. She also tries to make them laugh, and sometimes she is successful.

Katharine lives near Boston, Massachusetts.
