“Elizabeth is the Pied Piper of aspiring young writers. With her skill, knowledge, expertise, and passion for the writing process, Elizabeth takes her students on a creative journey that allows them to tap into their own inner writing “wells,” of hearts and souls. I never cease to be amazed by her ability to unleash her students’ creative juices and have them writing with pens on fire.

“Through private sessions and the summer writing camps, EAM Collaborative helped my daughter develop her writer’s voice. Elizabeth listened to the unique needs and styles of my daughter and helped her to develop a voice on the page without compromising her flair. Elizabeth encouraged me to advocate for my daughter at school and supported me with books and research that were applicable to my family’s needs. My daughter has been placed in honors language arts and math classes now, and it is all thanks to “Maloney Time”. We are forever grateful.”

"Our two children were fortunate enough to learn from Mrs. Maloney and their experiences with her have shaped them as learners and people. The lessons went beyond exposure to advanced materials, sparking passion, critical thinking, and growth mindsets that have, and will continue to, drive their evolution. Her devotion to her students is unquestionable and her teachings will forever be woven into the fabric of our family's life.”

“Mrs. Maloney, thank you for being such a good teacher, or should I say forever teacher. The other day I thought that I would not be reading. The books I am reading today would not be in my life if you hadn’t pushed me so much in reading, I can never thank you enough. I miss you with all my heart and wish I could be with you. You will always have a special place in my heart, and I will always be a life detective.”
