About
Hello there, my name is Lauren. I hold a master's degree in social work and a bachelor's degree in creative writing.
I have over seven years of experience working with youth in academic and social service settings.
I was named Chicago's #1 test prep tutor by Thumbtack.com and scored in the 97th percentile on my own SAT.
I offer assistance with:
- ACT, SAT and high school admissions tests
- Admissions essays, literature essays
I average a 4-5 point increase on the ACT and a 200-250 point increase on the SAT.
I assist students in learning both content as well as strategy. Lesson plans are customized to fit the need and skill level of each unique client. I track weekly homework assignments to proved tangible evidence of progress.
LOCATION: I currently offer remote services only, via Zoom, during Covid.
Test prep can feel overwhelming for students and families alike. I aim to demystify and simplify this seemingly complex process, helping students to feel confident, empowered and prepared.
