About Us
Literacy Express was founded by Deb Storey, who wanted to create an amazing atmosphere where students make progress, gain confidence, and have fun learning at the same time! This would be a place where she would feel confident having her own children come to as well.
She is proud of the Literacy Express team, comprised of credentialed, degreed, experienced, caring, and passionate teachers!
Thank you to our wonderful families, for the opportunity to work with your children!

"Emmy has been in 2 other tutor programs over the years…and today when I told her she is going again tomorrow to make up for next week she literally JUMPED for joy and said ‘really YEAH!’ I don’t know what’s Mrs. G has done - but it melts my heart that she (and Tucker) absolutely LOVE coming to Literacy Express."

"Literacy Express has been a vital part of my son's kindergarten year. Mrs .Storey has helped him become a more confident student. The way she connects with her students and teaches the material perfectly compliments what they learn at school. My son now enjoys math & reading because of how she makes it fun to learn! She works with children of all ages and abilities, and is passionate about her work. I am grateful for all the time and effort Mrs. Storey and her team at Literacy Express have devoted to my son, and highly recommend her to all of my friends."

"We have been so pleased with Deb and her team of highly dedicated, enthusiastic, knowledgeable, and caring educators. My daughter has been going to Literacy Express for nearly two years and the skills she learns in her tutoring sessions parlay into the classroom, giving her the extra confidence she needs to succeed at school. As a parent, I felt a giant weight lifted off of my shoulders once we started Literacy Express. I felt unequipped to help my daughter and I knew after her first session that I had done the right thing. And the best part? My daughter comes out of every session with a giant smile telling me how much fun she had! Now that’s a win win!"

"My son has been under the care of Literacy Express for the past 6 years, and my daughter since pre-k., once I saw the movement with my son academically. The tutors are phenomenal and connect with all ages and have a good understanding of how children learn differently. The facility is well connected with the schools and the pace / lessons per semester. As an example if one of my kids is behind in an area that I can’t articulate well (math), I include my tutor via email with the teacher and then a direct communication happens. Literacy Express has built confidence in my children."
Emi, CA
"My son has been taking weekly sessions at Literacy Express for several months. I'm amazed at how much he has gained in such a short period of time. His tutor excels at packing in an efficient, effective, customized lesson plan for him that is also fun and engaging. He has become a more confident reader/writer and has taken a genuine interest in these
. He looks forward to his class with Mrs. Jones every week!"

"Literacy Express has been the cornerstone to our three children's reading and writing abilities since they were little ones. The pre-k program set the foundation for their learning early on. Our children begin their school days with familiarity to all reading and writing concepts. As a result, our children learn curriculum in a stress free environment. We have seen confidence in our children as they continue to read and write. Confidence within a child at this early stage is such a wonderful gift. We are grateful that Literacy Express has provided such a fun and challenging learning environment for our children. They go over and beyond in ensuring our children reach their literacy goals."

"Deb, I wanted to take a moment and thank Alicia and you for the outstanding professional development you provided to both Blackwater Community School and Gila Crossing Community School under the Native Youth Community Project Grant. The feedback that was collected from the teachers demonstrated their commitment to implement these strategies and truly benefited from the knowledge that Alicia and you brought to each professional development session."
