Meet Minnie
Mondakini "Minnie" Banerjee Walsh
At Time To Grow, I specialize in PreK to 12 education. Having worked in private practice as well as public and private schools, I provide a range of interventions from play-based therapy for young children to academic coaching and advising for students in Middle and High School. I believe that we are continually growing and learning, and I am here to support your child on that journey.
I have lived on both coasts and a few places in between. My own educational path has been demanding and rewarding. With my children now grown, I continue to be passionate about teaching reading, writing, speaking, math, and executive function skills. I prepare students for the ISEE and SSAT. I also teach Latin!
With over 25 years of classroom and clinical experience, I offer a diverse range of instructional strategies. I strive for positive and successful interactions where students develop competence and confidence.

Why Choose Time To Grow?
We Can Help!
Speech & Language Evaluation and Therapy
I assess and teach spoken and written language, reading, writing, and social communication. I include visual cues and semantic cues to encode new information.
I am a structured literacy instructor combining elements from many well-known programs such as Wilson, Lindamood-Bell, Orton-Gillingham...
I am happy to review a recent neuropsychological report or psychoeducational evaluation and collaborate with you to build a plan for support.
Academic Support, Executive Function Coaching & Test Prep
I help students optimize their time, information, and materials as the foundation for their academic success. We also target understanding and sharpen academic performance.
Ask me about ISEE or SSAT preparation, study techniques for school-based tests and quizzes, learning vocabulary, math skills, the writing process...
Latin Tutoring
I enjoy beginner, intermediate, and advanced Latin.
No matter which text or approach, I have tips and tricks to make grammar, scansion, translation, and vocabulary easier to learn.
Interested in ancient art, history, archaeology, and architecture? Me too!!
