"Lauren has been tutoring my son Michael since January, 2013. She has been helping Michael with his homework and tutoring him on math and reading in addition to the homework. Michael has made a substantial progress since January in both math and reading. Michael loves when she comes to us, because she makes homework fun for him. Lauren is very reliable and accommodating, which makes our life much easier when changes in the schedule occur." — Vera Polychek (Dec 2013)
"Lauren has really listened to our son. She brought in books and articles to enhance his interests and got him writing. She hooked him in by teaching him the secrets of spy coding and the use of invisible ink! He confessed the other day, 'Writing can be kinda fun.' We couldn't get through the week without her!" — A&M, PS 154 parents
"Ms. Thompson has been tutoring me for about a year. If something is confusing, she always helps me figure it out. She makes learning how to write fun by giving me cool worksheets and organizers, and playing word games with the dictionary that help me with spelling. The best part is the way she teaches me. We do exercises to help me concentrate. We meditate to clear our minds by ringing a bell. Ms. Thompson makes me feel like I'm really good at writing. My grade on my report card went up too. She is one of my favorite teachers. I think I will do really well this year with Ms. Thompson by my side!" — Eloise, fourth grade student
"Lauren worked with our son twice a week during his 2nd grade year, helping him improve his writing. His confidence in self expression improved greatly over the year as well as his stamina for writing. She was able to work closely with our son's teacher to align the tutoring work with the classroom goals. Lauren also provided structure and individualized tools along with working with our son’s interests to help him overcome barriers that made writing difficult for him. We also appreciated the updates that she provided. They allowed us to use similar language and techniques when helping with homework and discussing school with our son. Lauren is sensitive and flexible and our son enjoyed working with her. We highly recommend her as a tutor!" — Heather and Raul
"Lauren was a calm, skilled and crucial part of coming to terms with our daughter's dyslexia and ADHD diagnoses. In addition to helping our child directly with her thoughtful and engaging tutoring approach, she also provided perspective and information about the IEP process and other things we needed to move forward." — JD
