Hi, I’m Lauren.
I believe every child deserves a seat at the front of the class.
As a primary teacher with over 15 years of experience, I’ve seen how easily a child’s individual needs can get lost in a class of 30. That Kid Life is my solution - a calm, creative and highly personalised space designed to help your child truly excel.
By focusing on small groups and bespoke, interest-led teaching, I turn "I have to" into "I want to." I’m here to support your child’s unique learning journey with fun, passion and a tailored approach that works.

Boost your child’s confidence with expert Maths and English support in a high-impact, small-group setting. With a maximum of four children per group, your child receives the personalised focus of 1:1 tutoring combined with the dynamic energy of collaborative learning.
Tailored for Success: Groups are carefully matched by year group and ability, providing the perfect balance of support and challenge for KS2 gaps and confidence building.
Engagement-First Learning: As a KS2 specialist, I ditch the pressure of solo sessions. I build lessons around the group’s shared interests, from gaming to animals, to ensure they stay inspired and motivated.
The Power of Peers: Small groups encourage healthy competition, teamwork and the chance to bounce ideas off one another, making learning feel like a win rather than a chore.
Give your child the expert attention they need in an environment they’ll actually enjoy.
Sessions are held in Great Wakering.

A home visit is an optional first step in building a successful, low-stress tutoring partnership. It benefits your child in many ways:
Confidence & Comfort: Meeting in their "safe space" reduces anxiety, transforming me from a stranger into a familiar face before the first session begins.
Targeted Planning: We work together to identify academic gaps, define what success looks like for your child, and ensure everyone is aligned on goals.
Personalised Hooks: By seeing your child’s environment and interests firsthand, I can weave their passions into my lessons to make learning stick.
Seamless Integration: I provide a gentle assessment to ensure your child is placed in the perfect small group, feeling both capable and challenged.
The First Step: To ensure a low-pressure start, this initial home visit and assessment is provided at half price.
