I’m a “go-getter”

Hi! My name is Lauri and I’m a Marketing Administrator, TEFL certified English teacher and studied Psychology for four years.

I am the proud founder of Smart Lessons that is a super fun English learning site. This idea came from when I travelled South East Asia and taught English in Thailand for nearly 2 years.

It then lay dormant for 2 years and I am forever grateful that it is reborn. Teaching English online saved me at the time as it awarded me with flexibility, company (solo travelling can be lonely at times) and opened me up to a whole new world I was eager to explore.

I met the most incredible people who I was able to help with their English in a very big way. My passion for meeting people from around the world from different cultures emerged into a business that will change lives.

I am always in search for work & life balance, as cliché as it may sound- if you want something, you just have to go for it. When I am not working- I enjoy creative pursuits and day-dreaming in nature.
