Kathy Anderson

Learning Commons Managing Associate - Supplemental Instruction

I’ve been teaching Psychology at the Trinity River, Southeast and Connect Campuses at TCC since 2013, and in 2022 I began managing Northwest SI, where I love working with our Leaders. I have a bachelor’s in Advertising, a master’s in developmental psychology, and one year of doctoral work in human development and family studies. Fun facts about me: I’ve lived in six states and I evaded kidnapping twice as a child (it was the 80s)! My husband is a philosophy professor at Trinity River and we have two kids, a high schooler and a college student - Wreck 'Em!

Supplemental Instruction Leader

Hello! I'm Ruth, the SI Leader for macroeconomics at TCC Northwest Campus. Last fall, I attended SI sessions for macroeconomics class every week, which helped me get an A. I’m excited to help other students achieve the same success and understand economics better. As a future CPA, I enjoy working with numbers, and I’ve even picked up Sudoku in my free time. I also love reading books while playing their audiobook version at the same time. I’m always up for a challenge, especially when it comes to numbers, economics, and ziplining with treetop courses. Plus, I’m a big fan of memes and cats because they never fail to make me laugh! I'll do my best to help my peers see one more "A" on their transcripts.

Hi, my name is Tuan! I believe in fostering inclusivity, positivity, and collaboration in all areas of my life and hope I can translate that energy to deliver engaging, insightful, and effective study groups as an SI leader. Ideally, I want to instill a drive and passion back into academic life for my fellow students and make study sessions fun! I am a lover of indie movies (bonus: if a movie can get a good cry out of me) and food, and especially love to bake to relax!
