How I Can Help…
My tutoring sessions are designed to:
Build Confidence First
Before diving into academics, I like to tap into each child’s strength and work from there. When kids believe in themselves, their ability to learn grows exponentially.
Strengthen Core Academic Skills
I provide targeted instruction in reading, writing, and math, using proven strategies tailored to your child’s individual needs and learning style.
Encourage a Love for Learning
I create a warm, supportive environment where curiosity is celebrated and mistakes are viewed as stepping stones toward growth.

What parents are saying
“
Hands down the best second grade teacher.
Thanks for a great year!

“I wanted to take a moment to thank you for the work you did with my son this year. He has come a long way this year in his reading, writing, and math skills. More importantly though, he has shown growth at home in his maturity, respectful nature, and diligence with tasks. I believe it was you that encouraged these behaviors in him. We feel very fortunate that he had you as his teacher this year. I know Miles feels the same way, he comments on how you challenge him, but he knows that you really care about him.”
— Christy Rafacz
“Ms. Malone was my daughter’s tutor and she was absolutely wonderful. She is patient, encouraging, and really takes time to explain mathematical concepts in the way my daughter understands. I noticed a big boost in her confidence and progress since starting tutoring. She was always looking forward to her sessions. I couldn’t be happier with the support and guidance she provided. Thank you!”
