Lauren
Engaging tutor - math, science, English, and test prep
In my opinion, education is not something that you do for a relatively few years as a child, teenager or young adult. It's an adventure that will not be completed until that-day-that-shall-not-be-mentioned. As a tutor, I try to build a desire for lifelong learning in my students by encouraging them to engage in the world around them. This involves asking questions, thinking critically and "supposing" (thinking creatively). This doesn't look the same for everyone; I strongly feel that it is im...

She is doing a great job with my daughter!! I'm looking forward to seeing how well she does on her ACT in September.

Lauren is a great tutor for my daughter. I appreciate that she is flexible with her schedule, responds promptly to text messages and love that she comes to our house for sessions. Thank you!
Bill T. from Independence, MO
Lauren has been great to work with. She is very patient and absolutely interested in helping her student succeed. I wished I would have found her sooner and would highly recommend her.

My 4th grade daughter was having difficulty with math facts. She was frustrated that she wasn't keeping up with the fast pace of math at school. She often asked why she was slower at math than other students. Homework was also a lengthy process every night. Lauren stepped in and made math fun. My daughter looks forward to her tutoring lessons. Her attitude and confidence are much improved. Lauren is able to keep my distracted daughter on track and gives lots of positive feedback. My daughter thinks Miss Lauren is "cool" because she knows pop songs/trivia and integrates fun anecdotes into her lessons. Lauren quickly assessed what type of learner my daughter was and integrated that into lessons. Lauren keeps my daughter on track and excited about learning. Math grades improved very quickly and homework is less of a burden. Thank you Lauren.

We are very satisfied with the way that Lauren conducts these sessions with our daughter and her response to this tutor. It appears to us that our daughter is developing with regards to increased reading speed and better retention of the information. Our daughter will be going to a different school next year and there with be more reading so retention of that information will become more imperative as she progresses throughout the school year.

Lauren provided a detailed review of my daughter's term paper and gave specific assignments. She's off to a great start!
Jenkins T. from Lees Summit, MO
Laura was a breath of fresh air. She was timely and really cared about the well-being of our son as she tutored him. Laura was the right choice and if I need a tutor in the future she is my first and only choice. God bless, great job!
Jennifer R. from Overland Park, KS
Lauren is positive, encouraging, professional, warm and knowledgeable. She assisted my daughter in ACT Prep and did a great job with a short time frame.

If you are looking for someone consistent yet flexible, able to motivate, able to learn your child's learning style, identify weaknesses, and still teach effectively then look no further. Lauren helped my son with ACT tutorial. While I didn't sit in on the sessions I didn't need to in order to see all of the above happen for my son. He said on more than one occasion that she taught him more English (writing skills) than he had cumulatively learned in school. She focuses on what needs focused on because she really can decipher based upon conversations and observations what would be the most valuable for your child. Schedule her now! :-)

Lauren really knows the piano and she figured out very quickly what the right level was and what the right thing to work on would be. Thanks Lauren!!
Lois C. from San Jose, CA
Lauren is not like any other tutor I've had before. She guides me through the questions, and provides a takeaway with each concept which is very helpful. Class time go by quickly and I feel like I've learned more about the ACT math in one session than I did from a real ACT class! I love having Lauren as my ACT savior and I look forward to learning everything from her. Thank you, Lauren.
Julie R. from San Jose, CA
Lauren made my daughter feel very comfortable and focused not only on the content but also on building her overall confidence. She is a great tutor!
Crystal D. from Palo Alto, CA
We've had one tutoring session so far, and children have nothing but great things to say about Lauren. Their only complaint is that they aren't able to see her every day! From the first meeting, I could tell that she has a genuine love for educating. Lauren made learning fun for my kids, and I can't wait to see results.
Aldeana O. from Sunnyvale, CA
Thanks much for your help. Lauren is an excellent tutor. She is very patient and transmits confidence to the students.
Yusuf I. from San Jose, CA
Lauren is an amazing tutor and has helped me find ways to solve and understand questions and answer them easily. She is amazing.
Diane R. from Los Altos, CA
Lauren is great! My daughter loves her and doesn't feel overwhelmed with the information covered or assigned as homework. She is prompt and communicates with ease. I am honored to have Lauren as my daughter's tutor.
