Testimonials
Randy M. from Seattle, WA Melanie has been patient, firm, and encouraging. She is working with our 11 year old son to improve his reading and writing skills. He is NOT a fan of writing. Melanie has been working with him at several levels of skill: basic handwriting, spelling, and larger themes in story composition. At the end of his last session, he was both enjoying the work and very pleased with his progress on an ambitious story. At times our son begins with a less than perfect attitude about working on these issues, but Melanie is able to gently but firmly push him into some initial work and then get him fully engaged on the lesson. The time is well planned and well spent. Also, Melanie offers a number of approaches and resources that are beyond what we could have brought to bear on several of the instructional challenges.
