Laurie

Certified Tutor

With all of the experience that I have acquired over the years, I have become very good at individualizing lessons based on a student's personal needs. Not every student learns in the same way, and for that reason a tutor must always try to discern which methods work best with any given student, in order to ensure that they tailor each student's instruction to whatever best matches that student's learning style.

I have been teaching for three years, and am currently working as a curriculum designer for an English as a Second Language Publisher. Prior to that I worked as a private tutor.
