Hi there! I'm a dedicated and experienced math educator with over 20 years of experience helping students succeed. I hold a Master’s degree in Mathematics and am currently pursuing a PhD in Math and Statistics Education at Claremont Graduate University.

Math wasn’t always easy for me—in fact, I used to struggle with it. But through persistence and the right support, I developed a deep understanding and love for the subject. That journey drives my passion for teaching and mentoring students from all backgrounds.

Since 2007, I’ve taught math at several colleges and universities, and I specialize in building confidence, clarity, and problem-solving skills. Whether you're trying to pass a class, prepare for a test, or simply want to feel less intimidated by math, I’d love to support your learning journey.

Let’s turn math into your strength!

Very positive person!

I observed while Melissa worked with my nephew. My nephew was very reluctant to go to tutoring on Sunday morning but he needed the practice for finals. She has a great manner about her and he warmed up to her right away. I highly recommend her for someone who has math anxiety.

Encouraging and helpful

Melissa tutored me for GRE math preparation and did a great job! She was always patient, helped to increase my confidence, and was eager to listen to my explanations of how I would have solved the problem and then to show me how to reach a conclusion more quickly. Highly recommend her!
