What to Expect

Each 60-90 minute learning session is tailored to your child’s unique learning needs. One-on-one individualized support can assist greatly with learning new and difficult concepts,  “catching up”, improving and enriching already mastered skills. Through evaluation, customized instruction, practice, assessment and feedback, our aim is for your child to enjoy the process of learning and feel success and confidence in their developed skills.

  • 60-90 minute learning sessions tailored to your child's goals and unique learning needs.
  • For the first few Learning Sessions, we allow parents to observe for comfort. We recommend families enjoy The Beachcomber Resort’s Living Room Coffee Shop or The Deep Restaurant across the street while waiting.
  • Success is achieved through evaluation, customized instruction, practice, assessment and feedback.
  • Ages 5-15.

How it Works

  • An opportunity for students and parents/guardians to tour our location
  • Review any prior learning assessments, report cards and Individual Education Plans
  • Discuss expectations and goals and map out a plan for success according to your child’s interests, learning preferences and abilities

2. Continued Sessions

We will conduct a math or language assessment based on your chosen service to determine your child's skill level and create a targeted plan for success. Learning sessions, lasting 60-90 minutes, will be scheduled as often as needed to align with each session’s learning goals.

4. Feedback

After each tutoring session, parents/guardians will be emailed feedback, if they would like, summarizing our learning time together and an update on your child’s progress. This can be helpful when communicating with your child’s teacher.

I highly recommend Ms.Melissa and Sunny Shores Academy. Over the past 6 months Melissa has worked diligently with my son to understand his individual learning style and meet goals for him in literacy and math. She offers engaging and hands on lessons with warmth, patience, and creativity. My son looks forward to seeing her every week! We also attended a specialized workshop where the kids got to interact with live animals like turtles and snakes. It was exciting and enlightening. We look forward to more workshops. We love that her approach isn't the more typical one size fits most. Sunny Shores is a rare find!

Melissa at Sunny Shores Academy has been absolutely wonderful with my son. She has a natural gift for connecting with children and makes every session a fun, enriching experience. I especially appreciate how she thoughtfully weaves nature into the learning process, whether it's outdoor exploration or creative projects inspired by the world around them. My son comes home excited, curious, and full of stories thanks to her warmth and guidance. We feel so lucky to have her!

There are very few people I would trust with my boys' education, and Ms. Melissa is at the top of that list. Our sons are 4 and 7 years old, and she has had an incredible impact on both of them. Ms. Melissa has a remarkable gift for connecting with children while holding them to a high standard. She creates an environment where they genuinely enjoy learning, and we've watched both of our boys grow academically, socially, and in confidence. They come home excited to share what they've learned, which speaks volumes. What impresses me most is how much she truly cares. Every child is treated as an individual, and it's obvious that their success isn't just a job to her, it's a passion. As a parent, there's no greater peace of mind than knowing your children are spending their days with someone who is as invested in their future as you are. If you're considering Ms. Melissa, don't hesitate. We are incredibly grateful for everything she's done for the boy's, and I recommend her without reservation.

We've been going to Melissa for tutoring for two years now, and she is truly amazing at what she does. She is incredibly patient, kind, and always finds new strategies and ways of teaching that really connect with Liam. Math has always been an area he struggles with, and we've seen so much growth and progress since working with her. One of the things I love most is that she goes beyond traditional tutoring. She has the kids create presentations on subjects they're interested in while incorporating the skills and concepts they've learned throughout the year. It makes learning engaging and gives them confidence in what they've accomplished. Melissa is also extremely responsive, accommodating, and genuinely invested in her students. She has given Liam so many tools and strategies that have helped him succeed and become more confident in school. We feel very lucky to have found her and highly recommend her!
