Meet Ms. Teresa Sonnen

Hello! My name is Teresa “Teri” Sonnen, and I have been blessed to be part of the St. Anthony Catholic School community since 1997.

For 20 wonderful years, I taught First Grade at St. Anthony. I now serve as our Reading Interventionist and Dyslexia Teacher, where I have the opportunity to provide additional support to students who experience dyslexia and other reading challenges. I provide individualized instruction using the Orton-Gillingham Approach, along with accommodations and support tailored to each student's unique learning needs. I believe that every child can thrive when given the right tools, encouragement, and support.

In addition to reading intervention, I serve as a point of contact for families whose children have documented accommodations.

Families may also contact me when they need information regarding the referral process for:

• Speech therapy

• Learning disabilities

• Student accommodations

My goal is to help families navigate these supports while working together with teachers to help each student experience success.

“Learning to read is a journey.”

Every child's journey may look a little different, and I am honored to support students as they develop their skills, confidence, and love of reading.

Please feel free to reach out with questions about reading intervention, dyslexia support, documented accommodations, or the referral process.

I look forward to partnering with our students, families, and teachers as we help each child build confidence, strengthen their skills, and continue their journey as a reader. 📚💙💛
