President and Master Tutor
People
Are Talking!
Whether
it's government officials, educators,
parents or students, everyone has
something good to say about Mary T.
Tutoring! Here's just a small sampling
of what people all around Maryland have
been saying.
"She has 'teacher
wisdom', the ability to zero in on when
to praise, when to lend a helping hand,
when to share a laugh, and when to push
a bit harder."
D. M., parent
" . . . my math and
science grades improved drastically. By
the end of the year, they went up 2
letter grades!"
S. T., student
"After my very first
session with Mary T., and for the very
first time, I left our tutoring session
feeling that I actually comprehended the
material. Mary T. is a teacher who is
extremely patient, non-judgmental and
demonstrates the ability to use many
examples when explaining algebra
concepts. Contacting Mary T. was the
best decision I made to help me reduce
my anxiety and fulfill my math
requirement."
W. K., student
"Mary T.
is very quiet, yet firm with her
students. They love to go to her classes. She has a special way of making
things interesting and fun, yet still meeting the needs of her
students."
C. Y., 3rd & 4th grade teacher
"I have
appreciated your kind, caring commitment
to children who need that extra mile
every day. Your ability to motivate them
to do their best is exactly what they
needed."
J.
I.,
guidance counselor
“Mary
T.
did not just help
with homework. She met with the
teacher, reviewed Jim’s current work and
developed a plan to help my son. She
found the gap in Jim’s earlier math
experience that lead to his difficulties
and built from that point. . . Before
tutoring, Jim was at a “D” level and
while motivated in math was now lacking
confidence in himself. A few
weeks into the sessions, my
son came home from one smiling and was
so happy and proud of his work, he gave
me a math lesson! Soon his weekly
tests in class were improving from “D”
to “B” quality work. His first
“A” test was cause for celebration.”
K. R., parent
"Mary
T. did an outstanding
job of diagnosing the source of [my
daughter's] issues and designing a
program to improve [her] results . . .
[her] grades improved markedly. Mary T’s
strengths include; Her professional yet
compassionate teaching style, her
ability to diagnose the root cause of
learning challenges, her flexibility in
dealing with the inconsistent motivation
levels of her students, her ability to
provide positive reinforcement to her
students and her technical Math and
Science abilities . . . we would highly recommend
her to any parent seeking tutoring help
for their child."
B. S., parent
"[Mary
T.] not
only tutors [my son] in English, but
helps him develop and use good study
habits that he can apply to any class.
Mary T. is not only a great tutor . . . but
she has been very professional in her
business relationship with us as parents
and accommodating and flexible in
dealing with a summer schedule."
M. D., parent
"Thank you,
I could not have done it without you."
B. M., student
"I just
wanted to thank you for being such a
good friend as well as a teacher. You
helped me in my schoolwork when I
thought no one could."
S.
M.,
student
"Mary
T. is GREAT with Kelly! She has
a VERY good way about her - she
explains, then requires Kelly to digest
it and repeat the
concept/application. We're very pleased
with the working relationship."
G. M., parent
“Almost
immediately, my son’s test grades went
from C’s to A’s. The focus on
organization was very helpful . . . But
the effects went well beyond the math
teacher’s grade book. At parent-teacher
conferences I was told my son had become
a leader in the classroom, frequently
doing problems at the board and helping
other students. Moreover, I noticed my
son’s confidence building in other
classes, in conversations at home, and
even on the playing field. It
feels good to be good at math, and that
translates to a happier kid. I whole heartedly recommend
Mary T. Tutoring. It was an excellent
investment in our child’s future.”
S. G., parent
“We had
tried several tutoring and reading
programs and been through several
special teachers at school before
finding Mary T. Tutoring. [Our son] was
struggling in every area of scholastics.
We had him diagnosed several different
ways for problems with eyesight or
trauma etc. . . from being
extraordinarily gifted, to ADD to low
mental capacity. [Mary T.] was the
first and only tutor who ever made a
distinct, measurable difference in my
son’s performance. For the first time my
son looked forward to doing his studies
because it was fun. My son’s math
grades soared. They improved in a few
weeks from D- and F to A’s. She had the
ability to mix fun with work
and keep my son’s attention, as well as
instilling a desire for success. I
can’t say enough about Mary T’s expertise
and whole-heartedly recommend her
tutoring services as being the very
highest quality.”
K.
G., parent
“ . . . I
grasp concepts fairly easily I just
don't become comfortable with them by
test time. You helped me with that as
well. The technique in which you did
that impressed me- having me teach it to
you rather than you sit and lecture me.
I knew the material; I was just not
testing well.”
V. D., student
"Improved
is an understatement! The change
is miraculous. Thank you!"
C.
M., parent
"Mary T.
has a keen sense of student needs. She's
gentle natured with a twist of fun."
L. F.,
parent
"Mary T.
is organized and fun. She gets results
with a smile."
P.
M., parent
"Christopher really enjoys his tutoring
time AND has shown marked improvement!"
C.
W., parent
"It's
such a relief to have found an
educational service like yours! My
husband and I are thrilled with our son
Greg's results."
J.
C., parent
"I didn't think I would ever get
geometry, my worst subject! But almost
right away Mary T. knew what I was doing
wrong and just what to say to help me
understand what was going on."
M.
E.,
student
"It was
more than we could have expected. We
knew that Michael could succeed in
school if he had the right environment.
Your tutoring sessions created that
perfect balance. You've got quite a
knack and we're looking forward to next
year."
J. T.,
student
“She made
learning fun almost to the point where I
looked forward to going to class each
day. I felt confident and proud of my
accomplishments. It was worthwhile
too. During my first year I
raised my D average to an B average.”
