"Great tutor!"
- Tammi, Mooresville, NC on 3/12/15Lauren helped our son finally achieve the SAT score he needed to gain admittance to his #1 college choice! He had previously taken the SAT twice.....prior to the second time, we sent him to a month long weekend training program. It simply wasn't enough to bring his score up to where it needed to be. Lauren was truly the answer we needed! She took great time to assess his strengths and weaknesses so she could utilize their time together effectively. His score improved by 220 points! She's a very patient tutor and has great knowledge about the mechanics of the SAT test. If you're looking for someone to tutor your child on the SAT, Lauren is fabulous and we can't thank her enough!
"Great calculus tutor"
- Diane, New York, NY on 3/9/17Lauren was amazing, knowledgeable and patient. She really helped my daughter get through some difficult concepts. She has a calm soothing way. I would use her again in a second
"Great Chemistry Tutor"
- Nancy, New York, NY on 10/9/16Lauren came to the rescue with great tutoring for our high school junior cramming for a chemistry test. She knows her subject matter. Our son received a 90 on his exam!
Approved subjects are in bold.
Approved subjects
In most cases, tutors gain approval in a subject by passing a proficiency exam. For some subject areas, like music and art, tutors submit written requests to demonstrate their proficiency to potential students. If a tutor is interested but not yet approved in a subject, the subject will appear in non-bold font. Tutors need to be approved in a subject prior to beginning lessons.
Calculus
Calculus is one of my favorite topics because it ties together most of the math learned by students prior to calculus and allows deeper understanding of how math functions. It also forms the foundation to allow a deeper exploration of sciences especially physics. My passion for the subject allows me to help students see these connections and use them to form a deeper understanding of how calculus can help strengthen their understanding of how math works. I spend time getting to know each student and their strengths and weakness and use those as building blocks to help them see the connections that calculus makes to earlier subjects.
SAT Math
I did very well on the SAT in high school. After college, I taught SAT prep classes for a year before focusing on individual tutoring. For the past 7 years I have been working with students to improve their scores and gain confidence on the test.
