“Melissa Kelly is a thoughtful, compassionate, and driven teacher who makes meaningful connections wherever she teaches. In a short amount of time, Melissa is able to build relationships with her students, which allows them to learn in a space in which they feel safe and cared for. Melissa gives room for her students to explore their interests within the learning environment, leading to student-driven projects and a class that is student-centered. In the 2 years we worked together, I was able to witness the profound care and dedication Melissa has for her students and coworkers. Anyone who gets the chance to work with her or become her student is a very lucky person.”
"I am thrilled to be writing a review for Melissa Kelly. She was an incredible teacher who was my children's teacher before schools closed during the pandemic, as well as a home tutor for my 9 and 10 year old during the pandemic. From the moment we began working together it was evident that she possesses a remarkable blend of expertise, patience, and dedication that truly made a positive impact on my children's progress during a difficult period."
Our four year old was engaged with Melissa the entire time through play, questions and answers, instruction, and building a craft together on the skills we were wanting to assess. Working by the pool felt so natural and fun for our daughter. Melissa gave a brief assessment to us of what she evaluated and a few takeaways from our session. Shortly after our session, she also provided a full write-up of her assessment, with some resources and action steps we can take. I definitely am recommending Sunny Shores Academy and their tailored approach and I look forward to our daughter working with Melissa in the future with the way she engaged with our daughter and made learning fun, creative, and specific to how she best learns.
“Melissa at Sunny Shores Academy was lovely and my daughter adored her. She worked with four 5 year olds beautifully and they all had a great experience learning about Sea turtles."

I have only good words to share about Melissa! She is just a wonderful teacher and a human being. She has this special calm and warm way to connect with my son. Also Melissa makes studying interesting by connecting it to a real life and things that my son is interested in. He likes to study with her. After two months of lessons, he reads. All is done without pressure or stress. That’s how the education process should be. She is professional and experienced. I highly recommend Melissa!
