About Melissa
Experience: 10 yrs
16 years experience teaching grades 6, 7, & 8, as well as intervention. I specialize in working with students struggling with executive functioning. I work with students on understanding the content but also understanding how they learn best. Time management, organization, note taking and efficient strategies for studying are all a big part of being successful in middle and high school. Every student is different, and this makes helping each young person find what works for them always exciting and rewarding. My goal is always to make myself obsolete as your student becomes an independent, life-long learner.

Other Qualifications & Credentials
I am happy to help students complete projects. This can feel over whelming to some who just don't know where to start. Sometimes family help is not an enjoyable experience if your student is frustrated about larger assignments.
