My name is Lana, and I am the founder of Literacy Beyond Word.

Our team specializes in working with students with learning differences. We believe that intervention is a process, not a product, and we are here to support your family in giving your child the best quality support possible, every step of the way.

Our Approach

  • Science-based Literacy Instruction

    Instruction is personalized and grounded in the science of learning. We explicitly break down the patterns behind reading, spelling, writing and math — so students understand the why, not just the how.

  • Executive Functioning Skill-Building

    Executive functioning is the brain’s ability to self-regulate, stay organized, and plan ahead. Students with learning challenges often struggle with this ability, so explicitly learning these skills helps them succeed both academically and in everyday life.

  • Multi-Sensory

    Lessons engage multiple areas of the brain by integrating visual, auditory, kinesthetic, and tactile techniques. This approach helps students strengthen memory and retention, stay actively engaged, and deepen understanding.

Testimonials

love from families

  • "Our lives have changed since Lana has started working with our daughter. She is accessible, kind and has rich knowledge on the world of learning differences and literacy remediation. Thanks to Lana, our kid is no longer dreading school, her behavior has changed for the better, and she is overall a more confident learner."

    —Parent of 4th Grader

  • "It's been 3 years since our child started working with Lana and we could not be more thankful. We appreciate Lana's knowledge, professionalism, flexibility and holistic approach to educational therapy. However, what we value most is the care and compassion that Lana brings to each and every session. Our child values the trust Lana has fostered as well, feeling comfortable expressing themselves openly and honestly in the safe space Lana has created."

    —Parent of 5th Grader

  • "Our child looks forward to the twice weekly meetings with eager anticipation, not only for the confidence they know will come from reviewing school work with Lana, but for the opportunity to update Lana on life outside of the classroom, knowing full well that Lana cares who they are, how they are and where they envision themselves heading. We feel so fortunate that wherever they are heading, they have Lana by their side to support and guide them!"
