Melanie Barrett

Melanie has been a successful, and influential, Secondary School Teacher for over 20 years. In that time, she has developed more teaching and learning resources than she can even remember. She has designed courses, consulted on textbooks, collaborated on initiatives, and worked as an educational developmental editor. Most importantly, Melanie has supported 1000s of students on their journeys to adulthood, and hundreds colleagues in their professional development.

Melanie has a passion for helping people become their best selves, and she loves sharing positive ways to improve personal mindset. She has always been a writer and, at the urging of her students, decided it was time to share some of her ideas with the world outside of her classroom.

Melanie lives near the lake in Toronto with her spouse and their loving and brilliant dog. She considers herself a work in progress, and she likes it that way.
