Lessons are structured but completely personalised. I always tailor the lesson to where you are at in terms of your emotional capacity for the day but also based on what you feel you want to work on. We begin with clear teaching or consolidation of key content using real life application, then move onto exam application. We address misconceptions immediately and practise structuring strong answers together. I model responses, then gradually build independence. Between sessions, I set manageable targets such as revision resources or exam questions (which I will mark and feedback in the following session). We use mini-mocks to track progress and refine technique. I have experience with ASC and ADHD students and use a trauma sensitive approach to lessons.

Lauren is an excellent tutor in every way. She is caring, kind, knowledgeable, supportive, and very committed to nurturing and developing her students, both in terms of their academic learning as well as their personal development. She is very empathic, respects her students, and is genuinely interested in really listening to them, learning from them, and valuing them as individuals. Lauren knows her subject very well, and her enthusiasm about psychology is infectious: her students cannot help but enjoy it too! She is able to communicate the subject highly effectively to students, in a way that allows them to explore and not just absorb the material. She is adaptable in her teaching methods, is always very well prepared with useful resources, and able to judge exactly what is required to meet her students’ needs. Lauren works extremely well with students with additional needs. She is able to build strong relationships and create a sense of safety for students, allowing them to

Lauren has been an incredible asset in my daughters life over the last year. She has been consistent and reliable and completely trustworthy. Lauren is an excellent teacher making the lessons feel fun and interactive. Lauren is calm, flexible and understanding being able to work with my daughters needs. Her patience to allow students time to process and work at their own pace is excellent, while still managing to stay on track to cover everything needed. My daughter is currently achieving grade 9 at GCSE level, solely from working with Lauren. I would happily recommend Lauren as a tutor and mentor, we will miss her now our lessons are finished
