About Melannie

I’m a passionate writer and recent graduate with a love for storytelling in all its forms—from prose & poetry, personal essays, fashion journalism & commentary, and cultural critique. With a background in literary analysis, creative writing, and editorial studies, I bring creativity everywhere I go! Graduating cum laude, Honors & AP, MUN best and outstanding delegate & best research awards winner, and AP Scholar Award winner has made me confident that I can help your student release their full potential. I believe strong writing starts with strong voice, and I’m here to help students not just learn the rules of English—but to use them boldly. Whether we’re analyzing a text, crafting a story, or breaking down media, I make each session engaging, empowering, and tailored to the student’s own passions. As someone who understands what it’s like to grow into your voice at a young age, I teach with patience, warmth, and a creative eye—turning writing into a space for self-expression and confidence.
