About Melanie

I am a single parent to a very busy 5-year-old as well as a small business owner. Life is a crazy, beautiful mess—chaotic, but never dull! I have worked in several business sectors and have acquired a wide variety of skills over the years. Being a bit of an entrepreneur, I’ve used the years of work experience I’ve gained to start up my own small businesses. • I am a naturally creative person, passionate about encouraging people to stay fit and healthy in a manner that is sustainable for them. • I’m a qualified Exercise Specialist, qualified for pre- and postnatal training as well as nutrition, and working with special needs populations. I run my own fitness and healthy meal-cooking business. • I am a tutor and have been employed as such at two different educational institutions. Teaching comes naturally to me because I am passionate about educating people and watching them grow and learn new skills that will open up opportunities for them or just improve their quality of life. • I am a copywriter and provide creative writing and online content creation services for social media marketing and blogs for websites. • I am a DTP operator and designer. I am skilled in both digital and print marketing. I have 25 years of experience in print design and marketing, and I have 7 years of experience in digital design and marketing. • I am experienced in website design and construction and the maintenance thereof, having worked with WordPress for the last 6 years. • I am a successful singer/songwriter, musician, and recording artist. I offer guitar lessons and vocal coaching as part of my music business. • I love to research and learn about anything and everything. This adds a lot of value to another big passion of mine, which is writing—songs, poems, blogs, or short stories.

I don't believe in simply regurgitating information using a PowerPoint presentation. I like to use several interactive methods to encourage students to engage in the process of learning.

As an adult with ADHD, I understand that there are many students who require both visual and vocal mediums to absorb and process information. That is why I provide interactive, visual, and auditory methods of input for my students.

I love it when students ask questions. It shows me that they are eager to learn and fully engaged in the lesson. No question is too trivial. It provokes thought and shows that you are applying your mind to the subject being discussed. It also provides a fantastic discussion opportunity for the entire class.

An enquiring mind is an intelligent and problem-solving mind. Even professionals get it wrong. It shows intelligence to question the status quo, and a healthy debate is a great way to engage students and promote learning. My students have been some of my greatest teachers.

I am 100% proficient in the English language. I have 7 years of experience tutoring various skillsets and 12 years of experience as an Exercise Specialist in the Health and Fitness Industry.

I have tutored a wide variety of students in an equally wide variety of skill sets, and I believe that there are no limits to learning a new skill. Accommodations for students requiring them should always be provided, and I am very open to discussing those accommodations with students.

A typical lesson will involve all of the above, depending on the topic being discussed. Health and Fitness studies are obviously very movement-based. One of the best ways to learn is through practical application, which we do very often.

The theory aspect is delivered in a way that encourages thought and engagement around the various topics.

I have a real passion for teaching and imparting knowledge to both students and clients. I find it incredibly rewarding and fulfilling.
