About Laurie
I’m a lifelong learner and an empty nester with four adult children. I enjoy traveling, staying active, and spending time outdoors with friends. I love walking my son’s German Shepherd and exploring new cities, especially through long walks and meaningful conversations.
About the lesson
- All Levels
- English
All languages in which the lesson is available :
English
My approach as a tutor is student-centered, supportive, and conversation-focused. With a background in Contemplative Psychology, I emphasize creating a calm, encouraging space where learners feel comfortable taking risks and expressing themselves.
Teaching method & techniques:
I focus on real-life communication, using guided conversation, active listening, and gentle correction. I adapt to each student’s goals, whether improving fluency, pronunciation, or confidence.
Typical lesson plan:
Lessons usually begin with casual conversation, followed by a targeted activity (vocabulary, pronunciation, or topic-based discussion), and end with feedback and practical tips for improvement.
What sets me apart:
My compassionate, patient approach helps students feel at ease. I prioritize confidence-building and meaningful connection, not just correctness.
Who lessons are for:
I work with beginners to intermediate learners, including children (K–8) and adults who want to improve conversational English in a relaxed, supportive environment.
