About Me
italki teacher since Oct 29, 2021Interest topicPets & AnimalsTravelHistory
Hello! My name is Lauren and I am from the United States and I currently live in Spain. I want to help people improve their English speaking, writing, and reading skills. I love traveling, learning new places and cultures, dancing, reading, and animals. I am living in Seville doing a master's program in Psychology while also pursuing a career in dance.
I speak Spanish and Italian.Me as a Teacher
I am a native English speaker with an American accent and I have a TEFL teaching certificate and I have been an English tutor for over 3 years. I also speak Spanish and Italian so I am familiar with the joys and frustrations that come from learning a second language. I have a lot of patience and am happy when I see someone learn something new. As a teacher, my main goal is to help you become more confident and using natural, everyday
(or professional) language as well as take your English to the next level. But overall, I want your lessons to be fun!My lessons & teaching style
We will focus on the area you wish to improve and will develop a specific lesson structure based on your needs. I offer lessons on conversation, comprehension, pronunciation, grammar help and correction, vocabulary, and writing. I also do lessons for TOEFL test preparation. We focus on writing and speaking according to test requirements to help you reach your ideal scores.
I have visual aids for vocabulary practice, articles for reading comprehension, various resoures to focus on having a natural conversation, quizzes, and games to make our time together enjoyable and valuable.
I offer a flexible schedule so if you don't see a time available on my calendar, please message me :)My teaching material

Community TutorI have been working as a community tutor on Cambly. I have worked with students from around the world. I primarily worked with older students and those with level of B1 or higher, but I have had a lot of younger students as well as those new to English. It has allowed me to hone my teach style and skills, and also allowed me to learn a lot about my students' cultures.

Lauren è stata molto simpatica comprensiva e paziente. Io l'ho contattata per fare delle lezioni di conversazioni e per imparare a parlare in inglese. È stata molto brava, la consiglio e sicuramente farò una nuova lezione con lei!
