About Mrs Deanna

I am Mrs. Deanna, your Partner in Literacy & ELA Success. As a structured literacy-trained tutor and neurodiversity advocate, I bring evidence-based reading instruction to life with clear, systematic methods. Working as an online reading tutor, self-published author, and veteran homeschool educator, I blend scientific rigor with individualized, empathetic instruction to support diverse learners.

My journey into the Science of Reading began at home, where I used structured literacy to ensure my own children transitioned into public school reading well above grade level. Today, I bring that same dedication to my students, combining the technical precision of orthographic mapping, systematic phonics, and morphology with a supportive environment tailored to each child's cognitive profile.

Academic Background: Associate of Arts degree; currently completing a Bachelor of Arts in Professional Communication.
Instructional Focus: Orthographic mapping, systematic phonics, morphology, and multisensory instruction designed for diverse learning needs.
My Philosophy: Reading isn't just an academic requirement—it is the cornerstone of a child's self-esteem and lifelong confidence.

Current Availability (Eastern Time Zone): Monday – Sunday: 2:00 PM – 6:00 PM EST (Subject to change during holidays)

About the lesson

Transitioning from "Learning to Read" to "Reading to Learn"

Designed for upper elementary students tackling complex school texts, these 60-minute, one-on-one sessions build deep academic independence. Instruction targets Latin and Greek morphology, academic vocabulary acquisition, complex text comprehension, and structured communication skills.

Format: Interactive 1-on-1 virtual instruction

Parent-First Model: Guardians manage all bookings, consultations, and progress updates to support student growth.

Technical Requirements
To access our interactive digital workspace via Pencil Spaces on Superprof, students need:

A desktop, laptop, or tablet (smartphones are not supported)

A stable, high-speed internet connection for real-time document annotation and whiteboard collaboration

Policies & Scheduling
Availability (Eastern Time Zone)
Monday – Sunday: 2:00 PM – 6:00 PM EST (Subject to holiday schedule adjustments)

Scheduling & Cancellation Policy
To guarantee every student receives dedicated focus and a consistent routine, time blocks are reserved exclusively for your child and cannot be filled on short notice.

Late Cancellations: Cancellations made with less than 24 hours' notice will incur a 100% session fee.

Late Arrivals: Arrivals past 15 minutes are considered a "no-show" and will be billed in full.

Important Disclaimer & Educational Context: Informal assessments conducted during tutoring are diagnostic tools used solely to guide personalized instruction. They are not standardized instruments and cannot be used for formal school advocacy, Section 504 plans, or IEP determinations. Formal psychoeducational evaluations must be performed by a licensed educational or school psychologist.

Your Child's Rights in School: In the U.S., all students are entitled to high-quality, evidence-based Tier 1 core classroom instruction featuring explicit, systematic structured literacy methods grounded in the Science of Reading. Schools typically measure foundational progress using universal screening tools such as DIBELS, AIMSweb, i-Ready, or NWEA MAP Growth.
