Sobre mim
Professor da italki desde 26 de Mar de 2021
My name is Melissa and I am a certified English teacher from southern California in the United States. I am a native English speaker and speak with a neutral American accent. I am a TESOL certified teacher and have taught over 800 lessons on italki with a 5-star rating. I also host a podcast which teaches English in context to non-native speakers. I love working with students and helping them improve their English.
In addition, I have an undergraduate degree in biology, a doctorate of pharmacy, and a teaching credential in science. I worked as a clinical pharmacist in a hospital and have been teaching chemistry for the past seven years so I have a strong background in science.
Minha atuação como professor
Because of my background, I have a highly specialized science and medical vocabulary. I help science professionals achieve their goals by improving their professional level of English. I also work with students who have an intermediate to advanced level of English to improve their fluency and command of the language.
I enjoy helping students improve their English. My classrooms are always a space where you can feel comfortable so you can best learn the material. I'm a very patient and friendly person, and I know the struggles of learning a language. I provide corrections and feedback in a constructive way so can you feel comfortable practicing and making mistakes.
Minhas aulas e estilo de ensino
My teaching style is flexible and you will always be the center of the lesson. We will build your fluency by practicing speaking and also by having you read articles out loud. Doing so will allow me to help you improve your pronunciation while you can get exposure to new grammatical structures and vocabulary.
We can also practice any presentations you might have to do, review papers you have written, or practice for school or jobs interviews. This way you can build your confidence and be fully prepared for the professional setting.

Melissa is a very friendly and patient teacher who makes me feel very comfortable to practice my conversation. I don't need to worried about my mistake because she will help me to correct my vocabulary. Also She encourages me to speak more during the lesson which I think is the best thing for conversation lesson. Thank you, Melissa. Looking forward to my next lesson.
