About Melina
Hello! I am a PhD student at UNC Chapel Hill. I have been tutoring students from middle school to undergraduate levels for 7 years. I also teach college level biology lab and recitation-lecture courses.
I am extremely passionate about teaching and discovering ways to help my students learn best. I believe any student can excel in any subject and it is my goal to help them do so.

Hello! I design lessons to make difficult concepts easy to understand and remember. I believe it is essential to personalize my teaching style to fit my student's learning style to foster student success.
In a typical lesson, we will start with a memory check of previous materials, discuss new material, and end with a lesson review.
Memory check and review formats include flash cards, multiple choice questions, spoken questions, short answer questions, or drawing visuals. Similarly, I teach new concepts using visuals, drawings, flash cards, and mnemonics. I modify what learning tools I utilize in a lesson based on what helps each student succeed.
I tutor students from high school to collegiate levels.
High school: standard/honors biology, AP biology, AP chemistry, standard/honors chemistry.
College: general/intro biology, cell biology, microbiology, molecular biology, virology, and immunology.

My daughter was struggling with her AP Chemistry class. We hired Melina to help. Melina immediately identified that my daughter was having trouble with mathematical chemistry and not the chemistry concepts. This was super helpful and we were able to target her tutoring on the math.
During the whole process, Melina was super kind and very gentle. My daughter never felt embarassed or unable to ask Melina directly to clear up everything that confused her no matter how small.Melina helped me pass college immunology. She was a good communicator and made things simpler.
I reached out to Melina for medical school interview prep, and she thoroughly surprised me by joining the online session with interview questions prepared! It was an incredibly thoughtful gesture since when I have asked friends and family to help do practice interviews with me, I’d send them a document of interview questions I prepared.
Additionally, as someone who’s super sensitive to criticism, I think Melina does an amazing job at constructive criticism where you’re able to learn and do better at the area you’re lacking in but also feeling empowered too! 100000/10 tutorView more recommendations
