Hi there! My name is Melanie and I started working with students in high school. My favorite thing about tutoring--and teaching in general--is the way a student's face lights up when they "get it"'; w... hen they recognize the concept they'd been struggling with. I love working as passionately and as diligently as I can with students. I know that reaching out for help can sometimes be scary, so go you for reaching out! I believe every student is smart, capable, and absolutely worthy of education. I have loved English since I could read. When I was four, I sat on my grandma's lap every night and would have her teach me how to read all the books she used to read to me when I was little. Since then, I have loved writing and reading. I have worked with middle schoolers in creative writing courses, people from seven different countries, and have taught a homeschool coop group Shakespeare's "Macbeth." I hope you look forward to working with me as much as I look forward to working with you!read more
