What do students learn?

Improved literacy skills

Improved literacy skills

Improved literacy skills

Students who tutor with me will learn or improve their skills in the 

5 main components of reading:


  1. Phonics skills
  2. Phonemic awareness
  3. Reading comprehension
  4. Reading fluency
  5. Increased vocabulary


Small children learn pre-reading skills such as:


  • Letter recognition
  • Letter sounds
  • Sight words
  • Print awareness


Not only will students learn actual skills, but they will gain a lot of confidence in their reading and in themselves. 

Strategies I teach

Improved literacy skills

Improved literacy skills

Using the Science of Reading, 

I teach strategies such as: 


  • The 6 Syllable Patterns that make reading much easier.
  • The Spot and Dot strategy where I break down how to break difficult words into syllables so that it's easier for students to read these words. 
  • The Peel Off strategy that helps students to "peel off" prefixes and suffixes so they can determine the meanings of the words and read them more easily. 


There are other strategies and methods as well.

Lessons are fun and dynamic!

Spelling skills

Spelling skills

I also incorporate some spelling activities into the lessons because spelling and reading are  closely related.

Benefits for your child

FREE online reading assessment

A free reading assessment that will assess their ability to read grade level sight words, read and comprehend fiction and nonfiction passages, determine their reading speed, accuracy, and fluency. 

An assessment and lessons for pre-reading skills are available for small children preparing for Pre-K or Kindergarten 

(ex: letter recognition and their sounds, sight words, etc.)

Optional dyslexia screening

An optional dyslexia screening will determine their ability to identify and produce rhyming words, blend sounds, and read phonics patterns. This is not for a diagnosis. The screening will simply allow me to see if your child presents a gap in skills that could suggest dyslexia may be contributing to their reading challenges. This will allow you to take the necessary steps to get a diagnosis from a qualified physician.

Personalized reading lessons

The reading assessment will allow me to target your child's exact pain points and teach them using lessons that will focus on the skills that they need to improve. 

This way, I can get right to the problem areas, they can see faster results, and an increase in their reading level more quickly. 

Lessons are dynamic and fun!

Mentorship is included

I have always enjoyed mentoring my students so I incorporate mentorship into my tutoring sessions where necessary. I won't simply help your child with reading and send them on their way. Motivation, increased confidence, improved study skills, organizational skills, and a safe, judgment-free space is what your child will receive from me.

Quarterly reading assessments

These assessments will track your child's growth and progress over time. 

You will be able to review it in written form.

“Ms. Dana is very knowledgeable, she is very helpful. My son struggled with reading comprehension, phonics. He was reading at a 2nd grade level, at 11 years old. After 10 months with her, he is now reading at a 5th grade level. Working with her has been a pleasure, I highly recommend her."

It is my pleasure to write this review for Dana. I am really glad that in my search I met Dana. I really appreciate the multiple positive characteristics that Dana has such as punctuality and positive demeanor. My daughters are always looking forward to having class with Dana and they really like the way she teaches and communicates with them. She takes into account my concerns and accommodates her teaching based on priorities discussed. Dana regularly gives feedback and keeps me informed about progress that my daughters are making. I will definitely recommend Dana as a tutor.

Greetings parents and guardians!


I appreciate parents and guardians like you who are serious and passionate about their child's academic and overall success. Thank you for coming to learn about how I can offer my support and assist in increasing your child's reading level and closing their reading gaps. I am passionate about helping our children reach their greatest potential in reading and in life overall. 

My name is Dana Monique. I am the owner and Reading Interventionist at Success in English, LLC. I also do business under the name Success in Reading.


I am very aware of the low literacy levels in children today, especially within underserved communities. I offer convenient online lessons that can quickly close the reading gaps by targeting the deficits a child has in order to reach reading proficiency much more quickly than other reading tutoring programs out there. My vision is to see much stronger literacy skills amongst our children.

By profession, I am a New York State licensed general and special educator who has been teaching since 2010. I started as a Lead Teacher/Educational Director for a Pre-K program, and then moved on to teach grade 2 in a charter school. Later, I took a role as a special educator in a private school. Overall, I have taught students from preschool to grade 8 in school settings and provided one-to-one services in students' homes. I hope to be able to serve your and your child also!
