“Kathleen has the knack for leading students from the tiniest detail in a work of art to the big pictures of social and cultural change. As a lecturer, she does this by spinning well-crafted stories that are both easy to follow and leave students curious to know more. Beyond this, she is excellent in leading students toward more ‘hands-on’ experiences, not only with the artworks themselves but with other primary sources that help to reveal the stories behind them. Always positive and focused (I don’t know how she does it!). Kathleen knows how to engage students with a wide range of periods and themes.”
