Lauren Ogden - Founder
A level subjects: Biology and Psychology

Hi, I’m Lauren, the founder of Dolphin Tutors and an experienced tutor who has taught over 400 students in the past three years. With a BSc (Hons) in Biomedical Science from Cardiff University, four A-levels (Biology, Chemistry, Psychology, and Latin) and 11 GCSEs, I have the academic expertise and teaching experience to help students feel more confident, enjoy learning, and achieve their best results.
I know that every student’s goals are different - some want to build confidence and rediscover a love for learning, while others are striving for top exam grades. My approach is patient, adaptable and engaging, ensuring that lessons are tailored to individual needs - whether that’s breaking down complex topics, refining revision strategies, or boosting exam performance.
By making learning enjoyable and inspiring, I help students stay motivated, believe in their abilities, and reach their full potential - whatever their goals may be.
Alice Hake - Tutor
A level subjects: Chemistry, Physics, Maths and DT
GCSE subjects: Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Maths, Geography, DT and Computer Science
Hi I’m Alice, a Medical Engineering student at the University of Leeds with a strong academic background and a passion for helping students succeed. I achieved four A’s at A-level (Physics, Chemistry, Maths and Design Technology) and nine Grade 9s at GCSE, giving me a deep understanding of exam techniques and subject knowledge. I believe that every student learns differently, so I take a patient and adaptable approach, tailoring lessons to suit individual needs. Whether it’s breaking down tricky concepts, improving problem-solving skills, or building confidence, I make learning engaging and effective. Having taken a gap year in 2024 to travel around Australia and south-east Asia, I’ve gained valuable communication and problem-solving skills that help me connect with students and make lessons enjoyable. My goal is to create a supportive environment where students feel encouraged to ask questions and reach their full potential.
