Languages: German, Chinese, Korean, Spanish, and English

Hi! I’m Cate, and I love language, especially writing. I’ve studied German, Chinese, Korean, and Spanish. I also enjoy traveling and living overseas. I’ve taught English in China, Korea, and Germany. I’ve also traveled to and presented my research in several other countries, including Thailand, Greece, Britain, Costa Rica, and Iraq. I’ve worked with multilingual writers for thirty years, both overseas and in the States, at different colleges and universities (e.g., Ohio State, Columbia Teachers College, and Baruch College). I love teaching and learning about writing, which is why I like being a writing coach. It’s an opportunity to share with writers the lessons I have learned about writing and being a writer.
