About Me

***I will be taking time off for Maternity leave, beginning at the end of January. I will return in May (probably) to continue teaching. If you have ANY questions about scheduling, expiring classes, etc. please message me! Talk to you soon! ****



Hey, I'm Lauren! Are you looking to improve your speaking skills? I'm sure you learned some English in school, but you never had the chance to seriously practice. Or maybe you just want to feel more comfortable using English at work or on vacation. If this sounds like you, I can definitely help.

I have been teaching English for 7 years, and I love helping my students achieve their goals. My classes are informal and are mainly conversation based. Depending on your individual needs, we can spend time focusing on foundations, grammar, pronunciation, vocabulary, or anything else you in the mood for.

It's totally normal to feel nervous, but please don't let this stop you from learning and having fun!
If you aren't sure I can help, take a trial class with me! We can talk about specific goals you have, I'll tell you about my classes, and you can decide if I am the right teacher for you.

Talk to you soon!

My trial lessons

My trial lessons are very informal. It's an opportunity to get some background information, hear your English level, learn about your interests, discuss goals, and answer any questions we have for each other.
