Giggle Learn offers Tutoring services and Homework Help.  Our location…

My name is Laurie Laurendeau, and I am a teacher, private tutor, and founder of Giggle Learn.  Most of my students live in Carmel, Indiana, and in Zionsville, IN.  I have been a teacher and tutor for 15 years. I offer one-on-one private tutoring to students from Pre-K to 7th Grade after school during the school year, and during the summer as well.  I also offer a Homework Help service for students in 3rd to 7th Grade during the school year.  It offers a two-to-one ratio of students to teacher, and it is also after school.

GiggleLearn’s One-On-One Tutoring is a great option for students who might be struggling in certain areas such as Math, Beginning Reading, Reading Comprehension, and so on.  Some parents choose one-on-one tutoring for students who are on grade level, but want to ensure their child doesn’t fall behind, and still others have children who need additional enrichment opportunities.  When a child first arrives, we assess his/her skills, which we then evaluate and use to create an individualized program. The one-hour sessions are Monday-Friday, 3:00-6:30pm.

The Homework Help program has two students working with one tutor on their day’s homework.  The tutor is an accredited, experienced teacher. Parents sometimes have a difficult time helping their child with their homework, especially in Math. Our Homework Help program is perfect for students who need a helping hand with their homework, and for children who need certain concepts taught in different ways.  It is also reassuring to parents to know that an experienced teacher is guiding and supervising their child’s homework completion.  The one-hour sessions are Monday-Thursday, 3:00-6:30pm.

Giggle Learn Tutoring and Homework Help operates from Laurie Laurendeau’s house.  There are 2 adjoining teaching rooms, full of many resources and manipulatives.

I would be happy to discuss if one of these options would work for any of your children.  Some families may choose 1:1 tutoring, while others may prefer the Homework Help sessions once or twice a week, and still others may prefer a combination of the two programs. As you can see, there are many choices for you and your child.
