Description: Thank you for taking the opportunity to learn more about Tutor Time in Downingtown. My name is Lauren and I am the director. I have more than 10 years of experience in the early education industry. Part of what I love about being a director is building rapport with families and finding out what is most important to them about their child's experience here.
