Meet Carolyn Malloy

Owner of Math With Miss Malloy

Hi! I’m Carolyn Malloy, the owner of Math With Miss Malloy. After thirty wonderful years of teaching, twenty-five of those in the Parsippany-Troy Hills School District, I’ve retired from the classroom, but not from my passion for helping students succeed in math! I’m thrilled to continue that work through tutoring.

Over the years, I’ve taught 2nd, 3rd, and 4th grade, and for the past seven years I’ve served as my school’s Math Basic Skills Teacher (Interventionist) as well as an Accelerated Math Teacher. In these roles, I supported students in grades 1–5 who were struggling with math, helping them build confidence and strengthen foundational skills, while also teaching advanced 5th and 6th grade content to accelerated 5th graders in a one-year course. This wide range of experience has given me a deep understanding of the skills students need to carry from one grade to the next, as well as how to prepare them for future success. I hold a Master’s Degree in Education along with certification in Special Education, which allows me to tailor instruction to meet the unique needs of every learner.

Math has always been my favorite subject to teach, and I strongly believe in using the CRA approach—Concrete, Representational, Abstract. This research-based method helps students truly understand math by starting with hands-on materials, moving to visual models, and finally connecting concepts to numbers and symbols. This helps develop a deep, lasting understanding.

My goal is to make math meaningful, approachable, and fun for every student. Whether they need support, enrichment, or just a confidence boost, I’m here to help them thrive.
