About Melissa
Experience: 10 yrs
With a decade of experience, I'm passionate about helping students unlock their potential. I hold a graduate degree and specialize in English, History, and Study Skills for high school, adult, and college learners. I believe in personalized support, fostering a love for learning, and empowering critical thinking. I adapt my teaching through varied strategies, open communication, and regular feedback. To keep students motivated, I connect challenging topics to real-world examples and break down complex problems. Communication is key; I prioritize clear expectations and build a collaborative environment. The most rewarding aspect is witnessing those "aha!" moments. I have a car and am comfortable tutoring at various locations. I'd love to use my skills to help you succeed.

I have seen Melissa tutor children. She is prepared, knowledgeable , and perceptive . Melissa builds bonds and the kids feel safe around her. She listens to the parents and to the children to understand what the goals are. Plus, Melissa has a sense of humor. She is a professional at all times.
