I possess a deep commitment to providing SEND tuition and creative therapy for neurodivergent individuals using an effective music based approach to address cognitive, emotional, and social needs.

More about who I help here

My sessions harness the power of music to enhance traditional SEND intervention and speech therapy techniques, creating a dynamic and engaging environment for children..

My tailored music based sessions ensure a motivating and enjoyable context for children compared to traditional intervention, leading to increased participation and progress.

Meet Melissa

I would strongly recommend Melissa as a Tutor.
She has been very helpful to my son over the last few months and continues to be so. His grades at school have improved, which I believe to be as a result of her tutoring. She is passionate about helping her pupils and I am very grateful for that.
