About
There’s a reason parents and kids feel gratitude and relief when Dr. Meg Murray, educational psychologist and owner of Be Alright Tutoring, steps into their lives: • Is it her background in education, which includes a doctorate in educational psychology earned from the University of Connecticut? • Is it her athletic career, which includes playing for the UConn Huskies™ in the mid-1980s under famed Coach Geno Auriemma? And, includes certification as a personal trainer? • Or, is it her life after college, which includes acting as a sports psychologist for the elite athletes of NASCAR™, the NFL™ and Wimbledon champ Mary Pierce? • Is it her experience working with special needs’ children and families? • The time she spent as an advisor for athletes and other students at the University of Texas and Texas State University? • Maybe it’s her prestigious work as education lead helping carve out a new path for learning with the acclaimed project like the $350-million Las Vegas project 9thBridgeSchool. While Dr. Meg’s resume is impressive, the time she invested in her own special needs' children and the foster children under her care for 18 years is likely what speaks to families the loudest. It’s this experience which gave Murray a deep and personal understanding of the power behind a strong, encouraging, outside voice when it comes to supporting families living through our challenging world.

Melody is an exceptional tutor. She is responsible, patient, and truly cares about our daughter’s learning and progress. Every lesson shows clear improvement in her writing skills, and Melody always takes the time to make sure concepts are understood. We couldn’t be more pleased with her work and highly recommend her.

My daughter (8) looks forward to her sessions with Brittany. Her teacher and special ed assistants at school have commented to me on her new progress in reading and math. Thank you Dr Meg and Brittany!

We have a 6-year old who is having trouble reading. We were hesitant to hire a virtual tutor, but Meg has really made the experience great for our child. She has been asking to read more and more and we look forward to seeing how she progresses. Even our 3 year old is asking for her own reading buddy!

Hired February 2020: I wanted to wait awhile before I wrote this review so I can give a fair review But I’m overly happy. I can’t express how much my son has progressed since he’s been tutoring with CaMaye. She immediately recognized his weaknesses and began tackling those issue and helping boost his confidence which was a plus because he had big confidence issue with his response. He’s now able to put words together and actively reading for his grade level. Now that he has to do remote learning his teacher is quite surprised and see’s the progress he has made. Again, I can not express how beneficial his tutoring has been for him. I definitely recommend this company. You will not be disappointed. Thank you guys so much!
