Hi there! My name is Melissa and I am a 21-year old recent college graduate (GO DUCKS)! I am currently in the process of applying to medical school and am looking for an enjoyable and valuable job to focus on in the meantime. When I was a teenager, I often babysat my younger cousins, as well as children of family friends. During my college career, I volunteered with The Boys and Girls Clubs of America, as well as a local school, assisting with an after-school program which entailed designing and teaching weekly science tutorials for various groups of children (aged 6-12). I have over 7 years of tutoring classes ranging from elementary school science and mathematics, to various college courses. I have my driver's license, am comfortable cooking, changing diapers, cleaning, helping with schoolwork/tutoring, and organizing interactive, fun, and educational games and activities. I love children and hope to one Read more day work as a pediatrician; I truly enjoy spending time with children and helping them learn and grow into amazing little humans! I look forward to hearing from you.
