About Us

We are Wendy Darasz and Jen Yagid. We are both Wilson certified and credentialed Dyslexia Practitioners. We promote Structured Literacy as we are advocates of the Science of Reading. We have a combined teaching experience of over 40 years, spanning grades K-6. Many of those years were spent in a regular education classroom. We now work as Reading Specialists. The students with whom we work represent a diverse population, including, regular and special education students, and English language learners. In our heart of hearts, we are teachers. We respect teachers and recognize the numerous responsibilities for which they are held accountable. In addition to the students, this core understanding is what inspired us to co-found Informed Literacy. Our mission is to support teachers and parents because every child deserves reading success.
