About Lauren

Master's Degree in Education and over 20 years of classroom experience teaching math, English, language arts, science, music/drama and art. I currently hold an Illinois certificate teaching 1st - 9th grade with endorsements in math, language arts, social studies and art. In addition, I have over 7 years experience as a Nanny/House Manager/Private tutor and have extensive experience working with children with special needs. As a highly creative teacher, I know how to draw upon the interests of my students to create individualized lessons designed to make learning fun and to maintain a high level of engagement. Creating original games, personalized drills, integrating learning from other subjects, utilizing art are an unbeatable combination for high levels of learning.
