Craig K. from New York, NY
Lauren is a really wonderful tutor. She was able to immediately establish a rapport with my daughter Claire, and make her feel more confident in her abilities. Claire's grades have been steadily improving since her first lesson with Lauren. Since connecting on WyzAnt, Lauren has been very flexible with scheduling, punctual, and easy to reach. I recommend her very highly.
Hillary S. from Brooklyn, NY
She showed my son some practical skills that he was able to use immediately as well as helping him understand long-term strategy. She also has an excellent rapport with him. Looking forward to the progress he will make under her direction.
Josh B. from New York, NY
Very good at understanding the problem and explaining it in easy to understand way. Not only explains the right answer but addresses your incorrect answer and talks through why that could be wrong and the correct through process.
Kevin B. from Brooklyn, NY
In just a few tutoring sessions over Thanksgiving break, Lauren has guided my son through an entire semester of Algebra 2 course work. My son now has a good understanding and a much improved opportunity for success with the subject matter. It is remarkable the difference between classroom learning and the very effective one-on-one tutoring Lauren provides. Lauren is a remarkable person, both skillful and mindful with her interactions with my son. She quickly made him feel at ease allowing for learning to begin in just few short minutes after meeting for the first time. My son has returned to boarding school and will continue to build on his success with on-line sessions with Lauren. Thank you Lauren for helping me to support my son!

Lauren's tutoring style comprises of both essential qualities, patience with the student and competence in her understanding of the material.
Curtis L. from Renton, WA
I've had two sessions with Lauren so far and have found it very beneficial. We've been reviewing GMAT topics with a focus on Sentence Correction and Data Sufficiency problems. Lauren's explanations are easy to understand, and she makes a list of anything that I struggle with so I can come back and review it later. I would highly recommend Lauren for anyone studying for the GMAT.
Omar A. from Los Angeles, CA
Going through a practice questions, Lauren not only broke down the process of answering the questions, but also detailed the nuances of how GMAT questions are designed to derail your thoughts. I highly suggest Lauren. She's patient and caters to your needs, whether you're new to the GMAT or an experienced test taker. Highly recommended.
Bianca F. from Brooklyn, NY
She explained everything clearly, made sure each concept was understood before moving on to the next and she's very personable.
