About Melissa
First of all, thanks for clicking on my profile and considering me as a tutor.
I know firsthand how challenging learning a new language can be—Spanish is my second language (though I'm still working on it!), and I’ve been slowly learning Turkish for a few years. Because of my own language-learning journey, there is absolutely zero judgment in my space. I have immense admiration for anyone taking on English, and I know how much effort it takes.
Outside of teaching, I worked as a pediatric homecare nurse for 10 years, caring for children with medical conditions in their homes. I currently live in Florida in the US, with my 4-year-old cat, Mari. In my free time I like reading, roller skating, practicing yoga, and going to the beach.

I teach through real, natural, everyday conversations. Think of our lessons as chatting with a friend who is genuinely invested in seeing your English skills improve.
As we talk, I gently offer corrections on pronunciation, grammar, and sentence structure to help you sound more fluent and natural.
What to expect in your first few lessons:
We’ll start by getting to know each other. While we talk, I’ll assess your current speaking level to pinpoint exactly where we should focus. Depending on your goals, our lessons can target:
- Pronunciation & accent refinement
- Prepositions & articles
- Verb tenses & grammar structures
- Phrasal verbs & native idioms
- Vocabulary expansion
Whether you want to gain general speaking confidence or focus on specific technical areas, I adapt every lesson to your pace and needs.
