Global ESL Educator
Kat Christensen
Kat hails from Clifton Park, a historic gem nestled between Albany, the capital of New York, and Saratoga Springs, famous for its horse racing and Revolutionary War history. With a Bachelor’s degree in Asian Studies and History and TESL/TESOL certifications, she’s traveled to 14 countries and lived in Taiwan for five years, where she taught ESL and history while picking up Mandarin Chinese (and a bit of German from her family!).
Passionate about blending history, culture, and technology in the classroom, Kat loves creating engaging learning experiences. She knows firsthand the challenges of living in a country with a new language and finds joy in helping students navigate English and U.S. culture. When she’s not teaching, you might find her playing strategic board games or swapping fascinating cultural stories with her students—because in her classroom, everyone learns from each other!
