About Melanie
My name is Melanie. I received my Bachelor of Science degree in Education from Liberty University, Lynchburg, Virginia (USA) and opened The Reading Room in the year 2000 in order to zero in on literacy. READING/LITERACY is the single most important element of any learning. Without it, there is no independence!

Overwhelmed by the thought of reading? Have you been diagnosed with a learning disability or think you could have one? Do you struggle with reading comprehension? Have you ever tried to read something but couldn't? If you answered yes to one of these questions, I can help! For over 25 years I have specialized in teaching people of all ages and backgrounds, including those diagnosed with ADHD, Asperger's, Central Auditory Processing Disorder, Dyslexia, Fetal Alcohol Syndrome, OCD, and more. What a life-changing journey it has been!
*Combining a variety of highly specialized and successful strategies and curricula, including Orton Gillingham, Lexia, Wilson, Barton, RfS, and Open Court, we begin with consonant and short vowel sounds, utilizing sound cards to aid memory, anagram cards as a hands-on application, and some other "magic" tools that are easy to use wherever you go! You're never too old to learn to read! Let's get started!
Recommendations
Recommendations come from relatives, friends and acquaintances of the tutor.
Highly recommend! Has her own patented learning tools to help with dyslexia, ESL and your run of the mill new reader!
She is a great teacher. I really recommend her as she has the love and the passion to teach.
Over 20 years ago a 11-12 year old boy I knew and loved dearly had not adequately acquired even basic reading skills from the regular school program. One day I read an advertisement from someone who was offering tutoring from a method I wasn't familiar with. I discussed it with them child's father and he agreed to give it a try. The result was beyond what I had hoped. He bonded with the teacher quickly, especially after they found they shared a common birthday, and soon he was encouraging the younger students. He learned to read, he finished school, graduated from a community college, and today he is a gainfully employed family man. I doubt any of this would have happened if I hadn't been fortunate enough to have seen Melananie's ad.
Although they no live in the same community, he and Melanie still keep in touch.Melanie is a very dedicated person. To the point and loves going over all the details and covering every single point in the lessons
I've known Melanie since college days and I highly recommend her for any teaching position.
She is passionate about educating students; she loves the students and she is very bright!
As a previous student, I consider myself both lucky and fortunate to have had an opportunity to be tutored by Melanie; there's no one I'd recommend more than her as an English tutor on Superprof. Melanie's tutoring style is calm, clear, and easy to grasp - no matter your level. She explains concepts in ways that make sense and is willing to break down specific areas of difficulty to make them easier to understand.
What sets Melanie apart is that she genuinely enjoys teaching and always goes the extra mile to help her students succeed. She builds trust by listening carefully, encouraging questions, and creating a positive learning environment.
I can't recommend Melanie as an English tutor enough, and I can not thank her enough for sparking my love of reading.As a former college educator, I highly recommend Melanie as an English teacher. I have known her for years and admire her for her consistency to excellence. She invests time and effort into every single person she teaches. I could see her passion and love for teaching when she gives me examples of her students that have exceeded her expectations. What a simple fix it would be for the Canadian educational system if you can clone her!
My sister Melanie helped tutor me when I was a kid and my reading comprehension really took off with her help. I definitely recommend her.
- JamesMelanie is an amazing passionate individual. We met years ago in a marketing business and she and I have kept in touch, till this day! The minute I met her she was positive, poised, and friendly. I believe she would go to the end of the earth to help a student become proficient in the area of choice. If I had children I would definitely choose Melanie to support them, as they would be in excellent hands!
Melanie tutored my twin daughters a few years ago. They are both dyslexic and were struggling in school. She was so kind and patient. She helped them so much with their reading and their self esteem. I highly recommend Melanie.
Melanie is so passionate about teaching in particular and helping others thrive. She goes out of her way to help those around her achieve their goals while availing them the right resources and keeping them accountable. I’m so grateful to have benefited from her unwavering support and generosity for over 10 years.
Great teacher. Smart and very patient with students. Whether it’s a class of 25 or a one on one situation Melanie can help. Highly recommend
Every student after each class with Melanie, walks away feeling more confident and capable!
She is trust worthy because she was the best tutor I had back in 2016-2018 and I love how she helped me with my English which changed my life in a positive way
Melanie tutored my son with reading comprehension. My son has ASD and ADHD .She was very effective due to her ability to adapt to his learning style. She made learning fun for him . I would recommend her as an effective and trustworthy person.
I have known Melanie since high school, she has always been a caring, giving person. She is also very detail oriented and thorough. I highly recommend her
All 3 of my children were tutored by Melanie! She is amazing! My kids loved going to her and learned so much from her! Thank you Melanie for being such a great teacher!!
I am writing to wholeheartedly recommend my dear friend as a tutor and educator. She is a phenomenal teacher whose dedication and passion for helping others learn truly set her apart.
Her ability to connect with students of all ages is a rare gift. She brings a warm, friendly, and kind presence into every interaction, creating a safe and welcoming environment where learners feel comfortable and encouraged. She is not only incredibly intelligent, but also deeply intuitive when it comes to understanding each student’s unique needs and learning styles.
What stands out most is her unwavering determination to ensure every student succeeds. She is always willing to accommodate individual needs and never stops looking for creative and effective ways to help her students grasp challenging concepts. Through her patient guidance and resourceful strategies, she transforms confusion into clarity and builds confidence in even the most hesitant learners.
I have no doubt that anyone who works with her—whether a child, teenager, or adult—will benefit greatly from her knowledge, commitment, and kindness. Melanie is an extraordinary educator and a true asset to anyone seeking a tutor who goes above and beyond.She's a very good teacher and and a professional in her work.
I attended tutoring sessions with Melanie in the early 2000’s when I transferred from French immersion to English. I had a lot of catching up to do. Thankfully, Melanie worked her magic and helped me not only with English academics, but with my self confidence. I’ll forever be grateful for Melanie!
Melanie is very caring and enjoys helping others learn whether it be kids or adults she's always thinking of new ways to help people learn.shes very attentive and it's very obivious this is something she truly cares about. She even keeps in touch with previous students to make sure they are succeeding. She would be a great asset any where she goes.
I have know this lovely lady for a few years. We were lucky to have her move in such a great addition to our street! She has been wonderful to my teen son helping him get great marks. I definitely would trust your children in her care, she is such a professional in her mannerisms as well as teaching skills. Good luck on your journey.
I have know Melanie for over 10 years both personally and professionally. And I have observed her while teaching. The dedication, focus and commitment she provides to every student is a credit to the entire industry. I would not hesitate to recommend her to any parent that is in need of specialized tutoring for their child.
Melanie tutored my children when they were in elementary school. I actually took them out of school a couple hours a week to get tutoring from Melanie. My children were excited to go every time. Melanie's tutoring Method really helped my kids learn to read My daughter was dyslexic and my son had CAPD. Melanie was patient and kind and very trustworthy with my children. I feel it was one of the best decisions I ever made for my children. They learned to read and my daughter is now a Mechanical Engineer and my son became a Mill Wright (Mectech) with National titles in the skilled trades. Thanks Melanie
My daughter was referred to Melanie when she began grade two.
An educational psychologist identified my daughter as Dyslexic. The psychologist recommended Melanie.
Her technique of teaching with a child with a reading disability was outstanding. My daughter did a 180!!!
She was privately tutored my Melanie for 5 years.
Her teaching also gave my daughter confidence in more areas than just reading and writing and sounding out words. I am forever grateful to Melanie. My daughter graduated with honors from High School. Melanie had a huge role in that."I have known and worked with Melanie Atkinson for over a decade. She is one of the best teachers I’ve ever met, with an outstanding ability to listen attentively and provide thoughtful solutions to individual problems. Her empathy, patience, and strong communication skills make her stand out as a truly exceptional educator. Melanie’s passion for teaching and unwavering support for her students have had a lasting impact on everyone fortunate enough to learn from her."
