Experience: 25+ yrs

With over 25 years of one-on-one tutoring experience, I have helped students of all ages overcome reading and writing challenges through tailored multisensory instruction. My approach integrates phonemic awareness, structured phonics, spelling analysis, and reading fluency methods to support learners with dyslexia, ADHD, and other learning differences.

Since 2017, I’ve worked both in-person and online with students in California and internationally, focusing on reading proficiency and confidence-building. I also served as a homeschool instructor for six years, guiding my two children to advanced literacy and academic distinction—one later entered an honors program in high school.

Whether your learner is catching up, moving ahead, or readjusting after a school transition, I aim to make reading enjoyable and empowering. I now offer Online Accelerated Reading & Phonics Classes for K–12 and adult learners.

“Dana helped my 10-year-old son gain confidence in reading and writing. She made lessons fun and individualized—his grades improved within two months!”
