Hi, I’m Kate from Lit By Learning—a veteran teacher and curriculum designer with 15+ years of classroom experience and a Master’s in Early Childhood Education. I create responsive, ready-to-use teaching resources that support English Language Learners (ELLs), spark student curiosity, and simplify your planning.
Whether you’re working with newcomers or multilingual students at advanced levels, you’ve come to the right place to find scaffolded writing tools, vocabulary supports, and inquiry-based lessons that help every learner grow—with voice, joy, and confidence.
I used to plan day-to-day, feeling bound by my curriculum. I was afraid that I would miss something if I adapted my materials and was rightly nervous about investing more time into teaching – I was already falling asleep on my commute home!
It’s not your fault if simply following the curriculum feels monumental. Between standardized tests, less-than-helpful administration, and all that has happened in the past 3 years, it makes sense that you are tired – maybe even rethinking your choice to become an educator.
