I can provide lessons from beginners' level right through to those studying university degrees. My lessons will be tailored specifically to your needs, whether you are learning a language for fun or seeking to improve your abilities for your upcoming exams. I endeavour to help students improve their skills in all areas of language studies; from written and oral communication / comprehension, grammar and vocabulary practice and exploring culture in depth. I will do everything I can to make our lessons fun, comfortable and engaging.
I am a recent graduate from the University of Nottingham where I studied BA (Hons) Modern Language Studies (French, Spanish and Portuguese), from which I graduated with a high 2:1. I continued my studies and did an MA at the same institution in Comparative Literature and graduated with Distinction in 2020. I am passionate about sharing my knowledge of languages with aspiring linguists. I have had experience teaching and leading seminars during my university experience, and also worked in the English department at a French university where I assisted in teaching classes.

I've experienced Lauren's help with languages for multiple years now. She is extremely reliable, patient and articulates concepts well. Her feedback has always been timely. I am pleased to learn Lauren is extending her tutoring services, enabling her to further build on skills and provide students the help that they very much need, especially given the disruption after COVID-19. Confident in multiple languages with a particular eye for detail, Lauren remains in good stead for a languages tutor and I wholeheartedly recommend her to any parent, student or adult, looking to further their language skills - be it advanced, or beginner.
