The educational process process can be confusing. As a child advocate with over 15 years as a
special education teacher in public schools and 12 years as a child advocate and learning coach
I understand how students learn. In addition, I am familiar with educational law and the inner
workings of a school system. This uniquely allows me to speak for the child or teen and help the
family navigate the process during a PPT, 504 meeting or other challenging educational meetings. As part of
the the team I focus on assisting families in the following ways by providing:
● Expertise and Guidance
● Child Advocacy and Representation
● Collaboration and Negotiation
● Ensuring Compliance (particularly with IEPs and 504 plans)
All services are billed at the rate of $150/hour.

Follow-up
Mrs. Lauren has been my tutor since I was in the 4th grade. I am a freshman in high school and I would not be where I am in Math or English without her support, guidance and tutoring. She is able to take Math concepts and break it down into very understandable concepts. My English, particularly writing has GREATLY improved since Mrs. Lauren started tutoring me. She is very patient, funny and will not hesitate to answer any additional questions on topics that are still unclear to me, even after my tutor session is over. She even will talk sports stuff with me. Mrs. Lauren is the BEST!
