Donna Puchalski

Donna Puchalski is an Orton-Gillingham practitioner dedicated to helping students overcome reading challenges associated with dyslexia. She has been working as an Orton-Gillingham practitioner for approximately four years and has spent the past two years in her current position providing private one-on-one tutoring. Her sessions focus on building foundational skills through multi-sensory instruction, requiring students to master each concept before progressing. Donna pursued this path after her son was diagnosed with dyslexia, leading her to complete an intensive Orton-Gillingham training program. She holds a Bachelor of Arts in Art History with a minor in business from the University of Denver and maintains additional certifications, including WSET Level 3 wine expert status. In addition to her professional work, she volunteers with the Salvation Army alongside her husband.
