Lauren
Hello!
Hi! My name is Lauren. I would love to help you improve your English speaking skills and look forward to talking with you soon!
I have always been fascinated by other cultures and languages. In high school I lived with a family in Germany for 2 months, and backpacked through Europe for 9 weeks with my best friend after high school. I love to travel (have been to 23 countries!) and meet new people and have experiences that I can't have at home. I love the English language and all its quirks and strange rules. I have always found grammar to be interesting (weird, I know!) and enjoy teaching my students the correct way to express themselves in English. I have a very neutral, American accent that students generally find easy to understand. I try to speak slowly and will repeat myself as many times as necessary. I find people fascinating and everyone has a story to tell. I'd love to hear your story!

Teaching Style
I encourage my students to just talk about their lives, their family, their job, their day to day activities and routines. Just tell me about yourself! I'm happy to answer any questions you might have about me, to give you practice with listening comprehension. But the primary focus is to get you to practice speaking English in a casual, informal and non-judgmental manner. Just talk, I promise I won't laugh! :) Please note, I teach adults only. Beginners are fine but my teaching style and skills are better suited to intermediate and advanced level students. I'm happy to work on any of the Cambly lessons or classes with you but my specialty is free conversation.
