Specialties
ONLINE English & SAT Tutoring now available! Skype, Hangout, FB video or Zoom - let me know what works for you!
Private tutoring sessions for each student - elementary school (Reading) - high school (SAT/ACT) - adult (English as a Second Language/Accent Reduction).
SAT/ACT Prep - It's more fun with me! For High School students that need a little extra prep for the English. I use a book (Up Your Score) that was written by students for students and they use puns, cartoons and stories for Vocabulary, fun made up examples for Reading Comp, and a nice template for the Essay.
English / ESL - Need more confidence when you speak English? I work with many non-native speakers who are professionals or are looking for work here in the U.S. Let me help you with pronunciation and conversational skills.
French - For school, business or pleasure - travel French is great for those who are going to France, work with French people, or are struggling with high school French and need help with assignments!
I also have online courses & YouTube videos to work with between classes, and can connect on FB too!
History
Established in 2010.
I started my career as a kindergarten teacher, and have many years of experience teaching every age, including adults! I started Cary Tutor in 2010, and I love teaching ESL English to my students, as well as French and Test Prep. In 2018, I started an online school - Laurel's Learning Lab - to help non-native speakers read & spell American English, pronounce it correctly, and enjoy the journey! :)
Meet the Business Owner: Laurel A.
I started as a kindergarten teacher in 1989-1990 (25+ years ago) and have taught all the way up to high school and now often adult learners.I have a Master's in Education with an emphasis in Reading, and a Bachelor's in English and French. I also have ESL training and a lot of experience teaching young people and adults everything from beginning sounds (pronunciation is my specialty) to idioms and more advanced English learning. I started Laurel's Learning Lab this year to give local and global students a way to study English on their own or between lessons.
