Jihyun L. says, "Elizabeth is an amazing teacher. I have only been living in the U.S. for a year, and my English is poor, which has made things difficult for me. Before I started studying with Elizabeth, I felt nervous when speaking English with others. However, after studying with her, I feel much more confident in communicating, even though my English is not perfect yet. In addition to being a great teacher, Elizabeth has become a good friend who always supports and encourages me. She has been incredibly helpful with both my English skills and adapting to life in the U.S. If you are searching for an English tutor who truly understands you, Elizabeth is the one for you. I highly recommend her."See more

Anthony V. says, "I had a great experience with my biology tutor. She explained difficult topics in a simple way and made sure I truly understood the material, not just memorized it. She was patient and helpful, and I felt much more confident for my quizzes and exams. I definitely recommend her to anyone needing help with biology."See more

Nikita G. says, "I would highly recommend Kristyn! She is extremely knowledgeable when it comes to language learning and is a great teacher for accent reduction and business language skills. The amount of knowledge and growth I gained from our free trial and our lessons has been invaluable! I was able to take what I learned and apply it immediately! She is highly responsive and worth every penny!"See more

YOU CAN TEACH a 4-7-YEAR-OLD TO READ AND I CAN HELP YOU! Three Types of Adult Support I Provide for Teaching Young Children: 1. Private coaching for parents or teachers, on an hourly basis on Zoom or in your home in the Seattle area ($60 per hour) 2. In-home consultations for parents where I can help you set up a nurturing and effective learning environment for your child ($100 per hour in the Seattle area *) 3. Seminars for parents, teachers, families, communities, churches, homeschool groups, PTAs, and friends who CAN teach 4-7-year-old children. Learn to read in a step by step, systematic, simple way! ($200 per hour) To be successful, parents and educators will find it invaluable to know: • How children learn • That 0-6-year-olds have an absorbent mind *, through which they effortlessly absorb information • That children love to learn • That there is a dependable, step by step reading sequence to follow that can empower anyone to teach • How to use hands-on reading materials that are like a series of card games so that children can almost teach themselves to read. See that these materials are tailored to the needs of young children • How to establish simple routines at home or school of 10-15 minutes per day where practicing or “playing with the materials” enables children to successfully read! • It is not difficult for most children to learn to read if they have the right tools and adults who understand a simple sequence. As a Montessori teacher with 25+ years' experience teaching reading and writing to children 4-7 years old, including my own six children, I am passionate about showing adults how they CAN teach children to read. Let’s start a revolution in learning! What I offer to Parents, Teachers, and All Who Would Support Children: 1. I provide private consultations and seminars for parents and teachers. If this is done in connection with tutoring, it will maximize the tutoring opportunity for children. Parents will be more conscious of developmental needs and will be more engaged. They can better understand and so support the child's efforts with hands-on reading materials. Simple feedback and demonstrations to you as your child is learning can be a great help. 2. I also provide seminars in which I communicate all of the above in further detail about how children learn and also lay out a clear sequence of how to teach reading. This can be step by step training for parents, teachers, and others! I use power points and other presentation materials to give detailed instructions about how to teach. I demonstrate the use of the materials and make recommendations. Understand how children learn and how to ensure the building of a successful reading foundation. *Please note I charge transportation fee of $1.00 per mile for transportation.See more

Paola Alcantar says, "I entirely recommend Lori's Language Lab.I am working with Lori as my coach and teacher for English as a second language.I am thrilled with the progress that I have achieved in a few weeks of working with her. She is a fantastic teacher; she understood my gaps and goals from the beginning. I am a computer engineer working with people worldwide, and English has become necessary. I never studied English formerly, and now that I am starting a new position as a Customer Success Manager, I want to convey my ideas and questions better, understand the customers, and be confident in myself.I recently joined one of the challenges from Lori's Language Lab, and I found the price affordable and excellent benefits. I enjoyed discussing topics that are part of life, for example, news from my local city, my thoughts about a situation, or my likes with more confidence rather than just finding myself talking about wheater again. I'll keep practicing using the recommendations provided by Lori!"See more
