About Lauren
Hello there, my name is Lauren. I hold a master's degree in social work and a bachelor's degree in creative writing.
I have over seven years of experience working with youth in academic and social service settings.
I was named Chicago's #1 test prep tutor by Thumbtack.com and scored in the 97th percentile on my own SAT.
I offer assistance with:
- ACT, SAT and high school admissions tests
- Admissions essays, literature essays
I average a 4-5 point increase on the ACT and a 200-250 point increase on the SAT.
I assist students in learning both content as well as strategy. Lesson plans are customized to fit the need and skill level of each unique client. I track weekly homework assignments to proved tangible evidence of progress.
LOCATION: I currently offer remote services only, via Zoom, during Covid.
Test prep can feel overwhelming for students and families alike. I aim to demystify and simplify this seemingly complex process, helping students to feel confident, empowered and prepared.

Lauren was a great tutor! Although we didn’t meet for very long prior to my SAT test, she put a lot of effort towards learning my thought process so she could help me use strategies personalized for my learning style. I felt great about the test and highly recommend Lauren to anyone looking for an SAT tutor.
Lauren has helped me so much with my ACT tutoring. She provides with a ton of resources for testing and practicing. She is also super flexible with scheduling especially during the busy months of the school year. During our session we also write down and review notes so I can study alone which I have found super beneficial.
Lauren is a very attentive, nice, flexible, and friendly tutor. I seeked for her help to improve my writing skill when I applied to my Master's degree. She helps identify my weaknesses , explains best practices, and introduces efficient methods for improvement. She has helped to develop my skills tremendously! I will alway seek for her help whenever I need it and I definitly
would recommend her to someone else who needs help with English learning.Lauren is absolutely amazing! Honestly, beyond amazing. She is very flexible and worked with my busy schedule! She also takes her time to really work with you and makes sure you understand what you are doing and that you are doing well/improving in that specific area. She even gives a lot of useful tips and tricks to make sure you are successful and it really made a huge impact on me!! I definitely recommend her!!
Lauren has been helping my son with editing script and now a story. She has been extremely helpful, patient, is full of wisdom. It’s been nice and very easy to communicate with Lauren periodically in regards to my son’s goals. We look forward to many more projects with the help, expertise, professionalism, and great knowledge from Lauren. We highly recommend her!
I would definitely recommend Lauren to anyone looking for an ACT or SAT tutor. She really took the time to explore each and every problem so I could understand each concept fully. She was very patient with me when I did not understand something. She gave me extra study resources that I used to learn in between sessions. My ACT score improved 8 points in 6 months with Lauren's help and I encourage anyone looking to improve their ACT or SAT score to learn from Lauren.
Lauren combines effective, rigorous, results oriented tutoring with an ability to deeply connect with her students. She is is immensely insightful and will work hard to find a way to encourage and motivate each student according to their individual needs and personality. It makes all the difference in the world when the student looks forward to tutoring and has someone coming along side who makes the most of the student's strengths. I cannot recommend Lauren highly enough!
Lauren tutored my son in preparation for the ACTs after we had some concerns regarding his scores on the practice test. I was immediately impressed with her professionalism and good work ethic. Our son tends rest on his laurels on academic subjects that do not interest him, however Lauren was able to role model and push him a bit to do his best. In the end, he scored very well. Initially the ACTs had us concerned about what college choices would be open to our son, however his progress during the sessions made me and my wife breath a little easier. Thanks, Lauren!
Lauren helped our son, Sam, to increase his ACT score from a 21 to a 26. Sam tends to struggle with reading and English. Lauren was able to explain the materials in an accessible way. She held Sam accountable in completing his homework but was also very warm and inviting. I was impressed with the fact that Lauren demonstrated knowledge and mastery of all of the sections of the test. She also helped to ease some of the pressures that Sam had been feeling. I was very pleased with Lauren's work and with Sam's success!
Lauren was so helpful in helping my daughter prepare for the ACT. She was initially very overwhelmed. Lauren was able to help her to not only better understand the materials but also to manage her test anxiety. She was punctual, reliable and thorough. I would hire Lauren again in a heartbeat!
Lauren was amazing! She helped me so much with my essay. She was responsive, punctual, and a great communicator all around. I HIGHLY suggest her as a tutor!
