About Melissa

Experience: 8 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

Hi! I'm using Care while transitioning from the school system for the summer break. I'm a certified K-6 teacher. I previously taught K and 1st grade at MDCPS. I'm currently available to assist families with tutoring and pet care. I have an English BA and Psychology BS from FIU. I've completed courses in elementary education at FIU (K-6). I have experience working with children via MDCPS, volunteering hours, social programs, research lab opportunities (FIU Psych. department), field hours with MDCPS via FIU, and community outreach programs. I am willing to drive, tutor, swim, run errands, and pet-sit (animal lover!). I'm physically active and willing to take your child on field trips to parks, gardens, museums, beaches, zoos, etc. I drive a 2015 Toyota Prius. I have plenty of teacher supplies and children's books to bring along. I have a golden retriever and a beagle that love making new friends (with parental permission). Member of Fairchild Gardens and Frost Science Museum + guests.
