About Lauren
Previous students have told me that I am kind, patient, fun, and highly knowledgeable about my subject areas. Here are a couple of quotes from them:
'I learn a lot and she waits for me and doesn't rush me.'
'She makes me happy all the time and she teaches me how to spell properly.'
You can rely on me as your tutor to help you feel at ease and progressively more confident in English. I will never lose my patience with you or make you feel inadequate for getting something wrong - after all, mistakes are how you learn! I will also encourage you to tell me if I am working through our lessons too quickly and that you need a little more practice to improve on a certain topic. My sessions are about you, not me. Finally, my sessions are as stress-free as possible - I enjoy having a laugh and pointing out amusing aspects of the texts to ensure we feel relaxed in each other's company.

My lessons are typically for 14-16 year olds preparing for their GCSEs, but I am also experienced in teaching phonics and other literary skills to younger children. Sessions will usually last somewhere between 30 minutes to 1 hour, depending on your preference and need. At GCSE level, I have taught students how to recognise literary devices and then relate these techniques to the theme of the essay question, ensuring that every sentence they write is relevant and articulate. More importantly, though, I will spend our first session talking through what you struggle with in particular to improve my understanding of which areas you need more guidance with, allowing me to tailor my sessions specifically to you.
My qualifications include a strong 2:1 degree from the University of Liverpool and a Non-QTS Secondary English certificate from the National Tutoring Programme. Most recently, I worked as an Academic Mentor for high school children with low reading ages, assisting them with the segmenting and blending of words.
