I specialize in tutoring students in English literature, writing, college applications, and research methods. I can assist with any stage of the writing process whether you are new to writing or working on your thesis/dissertation. I have experience working on UN-sponsored projects creating surveys and data collection tools and can also assist with basic data analysis. My college applications students have been accepted at universities like Yale, George Washington University, and Juilliard.

I hold a Master's in Development Practice and a Bachelor's Degree in English Literature with a specialization in youth leadership training. I graduated at the very top of my graduate school program and I have many years of experience in writing, English, Spanish, Portuguese, and public speaking.

I have lived and worked in both Spanish and Portuguese-speaking countries. I learned each of these languages from studying the grammar first and the speech later, so I am well-situated to help new learners acquire the basics as they learn how to become conversational in a new language.

I have worked with all age groups across seven different countries. English Composition is a strength that I have honed across many different experiences from copywriting, to business plan editing, to creative writing. I would love the opportunity to work on these skills with anyone interested.

I have also trained over 150 individuals in public speaking and effective communication skills, including TEDx speakers and college entrance interviews. I have a proven method to improve even the most nervous speaker's presentation abilities.

Feel free to contact me with any requests. My schedule is flexible and I can work around your needs.

Approved Subjects

Astronomy

Astronomy

Astronomy has always been a hobby of mine. I took several college courses at one of the top programs in the U.S. and have added to that knowledge with self-study since then. I love explaining foundational concepts and making far-away things feel tangible and fun.
Career Development

Career Development

I've spent over ten years working with young people ages 16-25 coaching them on career opportunities. My former mentees have gone on to become scientists, non-profit workers, accountants, teachers, and everything in between. My approach is entirely interest-based. I believe in mobilizing the things you are interested in to build a career in the income bracket you desire. By breaking big goals down into smaller, manageable steps, we can move in nearly any direction we choose.
English

English

I have spent over a decade writing, editing, and researching on a variety of topics from business writing, to academic paper, to creative writing. I run a successful copyediting company where I write content for business websites and promotional materials.
Grammar

Grammar

Have you ever had a ten-minute argument with a friend on the usage of a comma? How about the pros and cons of semi-colons? No? Just me? Alright, well while you may never fall in love with grammar the way that I have, I would love to help you learn the basics in the most painless way possible. Let's face it—if you don't already love grammar, that might be the best we can hope for!
Literature

Literature

I have a degree in English Literature from the University of Arizona, where I graduated at the top of my class. I originally had plans to teach English Lit., but my career has taken me other places. Now I love working with students online to help them read, write, and understand literature in new and interesting ways.
Portuguese

Portuguese

I spent five years living in Portugal and learning the grammar both in school and alongside friends. I can teach you formal grammar rules and also mix in the lingo so you can learn how to write well, but also speak like a native.
Proofreading

Proofreading

I have spent over a decade writing, editing, and researching on a variety of topics from business writing, to academic paper, to creative writing. I run a successful copyediting company where I write content for business websites and promotional materials.
Social Work

Social Work

My master's studies covered public health, social work, and development studies. I am passionate about social justice and the mechanisms of society that work together to support or deny access to individuals and groups. I'd love to discuss these issues with you or help you work through them for your next assignment.
Writing

Writing

I have spent over a decade writing, editing, and researching on a variety of topics from business writing, to academic paper, to creative writing. I run a successful copyediting company where I write content for business websites and promotional materials.
Yoga

Yoga

In 2016, my love of yoga grew from a hobby to a habit to a passion. I first began teaching aerial yoga and then expanded my training to include vinyasa, hatha, and yin when I realized how much joy my students bring. I opened my own studio in 2019 because I love spending time with wonderful people, sharing a hot cup of something wonderful, and of course, yoga.

Amazing tutor

Lauren was a miracle worker with my son, who has difficulty with writing. She helped him immensely with his presentation which required a lot of writing.

Amazing tutor

Laura helped me to write a paper for my MSW studies. She is patient and listens carefully. For my paper, she followed all the professor's instructions, explained everything that was not clear to me, made sure that I had all my questions, and trust me, she knows APA 7 style better than anyone else. As a result, I've got 100% on my paper!!

social work

The review doesn’t do justice to how amazing Lauren is as a tutor. I am so glad I found Wyzant because I was able to find the most knowledgeable tutor ever. Social work research and interventions require a lot of reading and critical thinking but not for Lauren she made every subject seem so easy. Thank you Lauren I hope to keep working with you.

knowledgeable, kind, excellent teaching style.

Laura was very patient with me. She explains very well how to read a research article. We did an assignment for my research class. I am very happy to find someone like her. I will definitely have more sessions with her.

Lauren has expertise in what she does

Lauren helped me complete a letter that I needed to submit to my university. First, she listened carefully to what I needed in my letter, and then she helped complete the letter in such professional and accurate detail. Her professionalism exited my expectations.
