Experience

Hello there! My name is Melissa Thompson and I have been teaching for 20 years! Eek!! I started off as an educational technician, was crazy enough to still want my own classroom and finally decided to open my own private tutoring business in 2021. I have taught kiddos in preschool all the way up to high school! I absolutely love building confidence in kids and watching them grow! I hope some of my resources will help you do the same with your students and maybe even your own children.

Teaching style

I love using a variety of activities to help kids learn. I prefer hands on activities and games. When kids are engaged they are more apt to practice, learn and have fun!

Awards & shining teacher moments

I have had wonderful reviews from parents and children over the years. If you'd like to read some of them, you can check out my Thompson's Tutoring Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100076075337159.

My own education history

I have my master's degree in Education, I am certified in Reading Recovery, I have trained with IMSE in Orton Gillingham and have had countless trainings through school over the years! Honestly sometimes I think I have learned more by teaching than the actual classes themselves!

Additional biographical information

My family and I live in Maine. We have one teenage son and two grown daughters who have flown the coop to a warmer state. We have two adorable crazy cats and some chickens! We love to hike, kayak, swim and go on adventures.
