About Mary


Bio

My niche market is students that need more than a tutor. They need a personalized learning plan that meets them where they are and helps them grow exponentially. During the school year, I work in a CT public school as a high school Mathematics tutor. I'm a certified teacher for grades 5-12. In addition, I help students outside of school get ready for ACT, SAT, PSAT, ASVAB and SCAT. I've been teaching full-time since 2007 and have my own tutoring business called LinkingGrowth.

You will find me responsive, dependable and reliable. My clients see my teaching style as innovative. I'm always coming up with new ideas to teach different concepts to kids to increase their motivation and confidence. Specifically, I work with students with students that are gifted, on the autism spectrum or have ADHD. Here are a few testimonials: "Mary has a huge heart for helping others. She works tirelessly to do good. And she's a true professional, Dan B."; "Mary & I work together in a middle school as math intervention tutors. Mary is intelligent, caring and compassionate. Your child will benefit from engaging in an illuminating educational experience with Ms. I. Sincerely, Karen L."; "Mary has been such a great teacher for our daughter. My daughter looks forward to her lesson every week. Vanessa C." I have many more references to share, and I look forward to meeting you and your family.

Elementary Math

Many students lost ground during COVID. My students gain as much as 4 grades levels in one year of differentiated learning. Catching up takes commitment, but I put fun into my math lessons for your elementary student using the best software on the market. One-to-one learning can increase understanding quicker than learning on your own.

Teaching PreAlgebra for over 25+ years. “Remember, a difficult moment doesn’t define you forever.” Let me help you love math again.
Special Needs

Special Needs

My background includes working with adults and students K-12 in ADHD, Autism Spectrum, and students behind in math, english and reading. My students have moved up, as much as 4 grade levels in a single year. In addition, I have worked with gifted students that also have the special need of requiring a challenging program. I've had students be accepted to college at age 12. Most of these students go on to classes with John Hopkins CTY after I help them to prepare for the SCAT exam.
