Meet Megan

Love is Learning.

Megan Michelle Charles is the founder of Love is Learning, a personalized tutoring and educational coaching practice built on a simple belief: when children feel known and cared for, they learn. An honors graduate with a Master's in TESOL (M.Ed., cum laude) and a B.S. in Elementary Education (magna cum laude), she's a certified teacher and reading specialist — credentialed across reading, ESOL, elementary education, and educational media for grades K–12.

Over more than 13 years, Megan has taught the full spectrum of learners — from gifted and high-achieving students seeking enrichment and acceleration to children who need closer, individualized support. Rated a “highly effective” teacher and chosen for leadership roles in some of the most demanding, high-accountability classrooms in the country, she has also advised education-technology companies on how children learn.

Her instruction is grounded in the science of reading and structured literacy — and her belief that connection drives learning is more than philosophy: Megan is a published co-author of peer-reviewed research on how a teacher's closeness shapes young students' confidence, presented at the American Educational Research Association (AERA). She founded the practice to give families a genuinely personalized alternative to one-size-fits-all tutoring — instruction that begins by understanding your child, then builds a bespoke plan around their strengths and goals.
