Hi! I’m an American native English speaker and a TEFL-certified teacher with many years of online teaching experience. As a language learner myself, I understand how challenging learning a new language can be. I focus on helping you feel confident and prepared to use English anywhere—whether at work, traveling, or in daily life. Outside of teaching, I enjoy running, reading, playing video games, listening to music, and I love animals. I even worked in the veterinary field for several years before becoming a teacher. Let’s build your English confidence together.

Melissa is an amazing teacher! She explains everything clearly, always makes sure I understand, makes lessons interesting, and creates a very friendly and comfortable atmosphere. Melissa is very supportive and easy to talk to and I always look forward to each lesson. Highly recommend her!

Picking Melissa as my English teacher was the best decision of last year. I am so thankful for her patience, encouragement and knowledge. I hope she knows how wonderful teacher she is.❤️😀 At the beginning, I was so shy to speak to anyone, let alone to teacher. Because I thought, that teacher is going to judge me and point only at my mistakes (and I knew, I make a ton of them). She helped me overcome this fear in month. And today, after 1 year of classes, I don't hesitate to speak to whoever and whenever.❤️ The best result that I even haven't dreamed of. Thank you again, Melissa

In recent weeks I needed to have classes here and there, sometimes even during a walk. And she was always very supportive, prepared to help and keen to overcome some connection issues. Great partner to get better in English.👍

With Melissa as your teacher, it's easy to learn English. She instantly makes friends and transforms stressful moments into friendly conversations. You'll also pick up new vocabulary naturally because she introduces it as part of the conversation. If you’re tired of long conversations with the wrong person, get ready for a change. Melissa is definitely one of the best tutors on iTalki. You can't go wrong with Melissa

I never got better feedback than the one from Melissa, she also taught me how to work with my mistakes. She encourages me every time. She is patient and supportive. And she always share how important is to know this and that (like "This even many of my friends say incorrectly... You don't have to stress about it"). Best teacher I have ever had.❤️👌
