"I'm Laura! I have a Bachelor's degree in Philosophy, a Master's degree in Journalism, and a teaching certificate in TESL/TESOL/TEFL. I've been a published writer since I was 13 and have always loved the English language and its many idiosyncracies.

What's most important in any class, though, is the teacher. A good teacher can make even a dull subject absolutely fascinating; a bad teacher can make even the most passionate student want to run for the hills. I am passionate about English: reading, writing, editing, proofreading, and speaking it. I want to share that passion with you.

I love English! Language is always evolving, and English has been influenced by many different language families throughout time. This makes it one of the most fascinating, and confusing, languages spoken today: Every rule in English has an exception, which means it's always difficult to learn English at any age and that even native speakers can make mistakes. Let me help you minimize your mistakes by explaining why English works the way it does, and help you improve your command of the English language accordingly.

My goal as a tutor is to benefit the students I work with; therefore, any feedback, suggestions, or additional resources would be welcome. I am easy to reach and will provide speedy responses. Please contact me with any questions or to schedule a lesson!" less...
