Melia Fisher

Learning Coach (K-9th)

Melia brings over 20 years of classroom experience ranging from K-12 alternative education, online learning support, traditional public high school, and 10 years of private tutoring experience. She home-schooled her three children, K-12 grade, in cooperation with a parent partnered alternative education program and helped to establish a 501c3 parent group for the program. In addition to a BA of Mathematics, Melia has a broad range of experience in teaching/tutoring in multiple subject areas in elementary through high school. She was a core player in the launch of her district's online learning program in 2014.

Melia helped her children unlock the joy of learning and overcome obstacles in learning, like anxiety, dyslexia and ADHD. She has worked with students of all ages who have felt defeated by traditional learning expectations, and helped them find success. She also pursued a degree in Mathematics Education through Western Governors University, an online school. Her experiences as a student, parent, and teacher have helped her develop a strong teaching philosophy:

Every student can succeed with the right tools and support.

Relationships are the key to unlocking student learning potential.

Each student and their needs are unique.
