Reading and writing tutoring for K–6 students in Denver and online.
I've been teaching literacy for 21 years. For much of that time, I've integrated Science of Reading and structured phonics programs directly into my classroom.
For the past two years I've worked as a reading interventionist, providing intensive, targeted support to students who are significantly behind grade level.
I'm now offering private tutoring to families in the Denver area and online who want a structured, research-based approach to reading and writing.
Your child avoids reading or gets frustrated quickly when asked to read aloud
They guess at words instead of sounding them out, or skip words entirely
They've been in reading groups or intervention at school, but progress is slow
A teacher has suggested they may have dyslexia or a reading-related learning difference
They read slowly and laboriously even after years of practice
You've tried other tutoring and it hasn't moved the needle
They have difficulty spelling words, even though they are reading at grade level
They misspell common words and get easily frustrated when trying to write down their thoughts
They struggle to sound out unfamiliar words, even after being taught phonics
[My son's] reading improved immeasurably. Prior to the school year, [he] did not read at all at home. As the year progressed, the frequency of his reading at home increased until eventually, he was reading on a daily basis. We can't thank Miss Bonato enough for the remarkable advances [he] made this school year.
Our child went from reading below grade level to above grade level with the help of Ms. Bonato's expertise. Ms. Bonato was so patient with her and helped her see her strengths and growth, which helped her confidence immensely. Our daughter looked forward to her reading group with Ms. Bonato each week because she kept it fun and supportive. She's now a reader and loves her books!
Ms. Bonato has been an amazing help getting [our daughter] reading at grade level. Before being part of Ms. Bonato's reading group, [she] would get frustrated if she didn't know a word and would want to give up. Now when she comes across a word she doesn't know, she stops and sounds it out and keeps trying until she gets it. She actually enjoys reading now. I'm so grateful.
