Learn Spanish with a teacher experienced with students of all ages
Vamos a aprender! I started learning Spanish as a young student, and I have been passionate about it ever since. Together, we will make sure you achieve your goals, too. I have a minor in Spanish from a university, have tutored in Spanish, vacationed in Spanish-speaking countries, and converse regularly in Spanish.

Acerca de Melissa L.

Even more true in today's world, the core goal of education is to empower students to grow in success, confidence, and skills. Having been a caregiver, tutor, and certified teacher in three states has afforded me experience with students of all ages and abilities (from special education to gifted and talented to ESL/English language learners). This is founded on a bachelor's degree in elementary education, minors in music and Spanish, and a master's degree in educational leadership.
Quality teachers who invested in me are part of my success, and I strive to pay that forward. Some of these teachers have supported me in earning awards, such as graduating summa cum laude, membership to the National Forensics League, membership to Phi Kappa Phi, awards on teacher certification tests, public speaking on a national level, and more. A teacher's demonstrated belief in her students is crucial.
Using current and time-tested best practices in education helps students achieve more. Since everyone is unique, the methods for each session are, too. Lessons are interactive and typically begin with a clear goal, addressing questions, and reviewing previous skills, if necessary. Then, new material is taught and practiced. Continual assessment strategies ensure understanding. If it is fitting, homework is given to help students bolster their skills.
I have high expectations for myself and welcome feedback that will increase the effectiveness of our lessons. I believe that, as a tutor, it is my responsibility to creatively meet each student’s needs. I would love to partner with you in achieving success!

Ms. Melissa introductory class was cool because she is friendly. She took her time to make me feel comfortable before the lesson begins.
