Information about Lauren

I am a friendly, approachable and positive person, with a very conscientious attitude towards teaching. I am extremely organised and dedicated when I take on any kind of commitment. I`m resourceful, flexible and very well practised in time-management. A further testimony to my confidence and determination is that I also work as a professional musician, singing with several different bands, recording my own material, providing paid session services, and endeavouring at all times to achieve a level of professionalism and excellence.

Availability: Weekdays and evenings.

Experience: I`ve been working as a private tutor for children, teenagers and adults since 2011. I have been continuously employed in this capacity ever since I left university. I’ve assisted students in preparing for exams and assignments, gaining admission to grammar school, improving their exam scores and moving up classroom levels, and developing their English language skills to suit a university environment.

I have also been teaching General English, Academic English and IELTS courses to teenagers and adults at Colchester College since 2012. These courses are designed for students preparing to study specialised courses at university. I was contacted directly by Colchester College for this job, due to the success of my private tutoring. During a 2015 inspection from ISI, I was complimented on my ability to engage the students, to provide clear explanations and interesting content, and to maintain a positive, friendly and energising atmosphere.

As a tutor, I find that one of the most important advantages of one-to-one tutoring, as opposed to teaching classes, is having the opportunity to engage with the student`s personal style of learning and also being able to observe their personality. Learning is more successful when we are studying something that we enjoy, so knowing a students` interests, hobbies and so on can help me to create examples using a topic which they like.

One of the most common problems that I have come across - and one which can interfere with a student`s development in a classroom - is confidence. In order to address this, I take time to establish a positive rapport with my students to build on existing areas of achievement and to work through areas that they find difficult in order to help to develop their self-belief. I also find that teaching them in a familiar environment helps them to feel relaxed, more able to ask questions and to participate positively in their own learning.

I tailor my lessons to suit the individual needs of my students and provide review sessions with students and parents to monitor progress and development. I manage all of my own resources – using online materials or creating my own materials, and purchasing books where appropriate.

Lauren is Fabulous! My 8 year old son is already showing progress and confidence in his 11+ preparation work. He really enjoys Lauren’s sessions and she has a great way of inspiring learning and breaking down tasks making them achievable. My son’s timestable test result this week was 100% and he loves working with Lauren so much that he has personally recommended her to his friends! As a parent I have been amazed at how much can be learnt in an hour of quality 1-1 teaching. Lauren also has Brilliant learning resources. Extremely Highly Recommended

We just started... but I must say everything from first contacting Lauren to 1st lesson, she was very pleasant and interacted very well with my daughter. She is very knowledgeable and very organised. My daughter is very excited.

Lauren is a thoughtful and responsive tutor. My son`s dyslexia presents some challenges in a few subjects including maths. He benefits from lots of repetition and an approach to teaching that builds his confidence. Lauren has invested time to get to know and understand him and design her sessions around what will work best for him to help him achieve his potential. I am thrilled that he is able to work with Lauren in the lead up to his GCSEs later this year and wouldn`t hesitate to recommend her services.
