EXCELLENT Based on 26 reviews Posted on Google CLTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We’ve had an amazing experience with this program! My child began seeing results almost immediately after starting sessions. Ms. Angela has been absolutely wonderful with my child—his confidence and attitude toward reading have improved so much since working with her. She’s patient, encouraging, and truly makes learning enjoyable. I also want to highlight the owner, Ms. Angelica Lima, who is incredibly responsive and professional. Any time I’ve had a question, she’s replied quickly and thoroughly. The communication and support have been excellent from start to finish. Highly recommend to any parent looking for quality, compassionate educational support for dyslexia. Thank you!Posted on Google Anna HughesTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Viva Phonics offered a professional and accessible solution for our 6th grader to receive the extra support and attention she needed. The assessment process was thorough and seamless, and the tutor connected with our student in a relaxed, friendly, and engaging manner. We believe our student benefited from her time with Viva Phonics, and we encourage other families to try the program if they have a struggling reader.Posted on Google Annie AlbertsenTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

I have 2 boys doing lessons, they love it so much! They have gained so much confidence in their reading abilities and are developing a love for reading! The teachers are amazing!Posted on Google McKell PhippsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My sons went into 3rd grade on a 1st grade reading level. We knew he struggled with reading and had been trying to catch him up through programs at school. The teachers kept telling us he was fine and not to worry. By 3rd grade we clearly needed more help. After visiting a few local places my husband found Viva Phonics on line. We decided to try them out. Everything was seamless from the get go. Our son is now in 4th grade and doing pronominal. He recently started reading 4th grade chapter books by himself. Before he felt he needed our help and was hesitant to read on his own. Seeing him enjoy reading so much has been so fun. Reading is so important and Viva Phonics and Ms. Cat have been amazing to work with. We highly recommend them.Posted on Google Grace HatfieldTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I am so thankful we found VivaPhonics! Our daughter has struggled to learn to read, and we have seen her skills and confidence grow since starting the program. Having an online option for individualized tutoring has given our family the flexibility we needed.Posted on Google Toluwalope ColeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My daughter has been in the Viva phonics program for close to a year. She works with Ms. Sarah who is an amazing educator and person. My daughter always looks forward to seeing her. She is encouraging and very kind. The curriculum is very good and the pace is tailored to each child. I can only say great things about Viva and I’m so grateful that we found this program.Posted on Google Alana RochaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My daughter’s reading abilities and comprehension have advanced since starting sessions with Ms. Becky. Our 7yr old has become more confident in class. She loves that the tutoring is fun - filled with games like Tic Tac Toe and Memory Snap. The best part — she can access this help after school from the comfort of our home. Thank you!Posted on Google Dorothy KnightTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We have used these tutoring services for my child's kindergarten year. My child is doing well mid year and is an emerging reader. My child can read 3 letter words pretty confidently and is always attempting blending which is a testament to the great phonics instruction being received. I'm very happy with all the tutors we have worked with. They have all been great at working with a kindergartener's limited attention span. They have great hours and have been very flexible with scheduling. We are satisfied with the progress thus far.Posted on Google Brianna DuncanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Viva Phonics has completely exceeded our expectations. We were hoping to find some help with reading for our 7 year old. I did a Google search and found Viva Phonics. After meeting with Angelica for the first assessment, I knew it was going to be a great program for our son. What I didn't know at the time is how much we were going to grow to absolutely LOVE his teacher and the program. We have been blown away by our son's progress even just in 4 short months. What they are teaching him is so much more than what I could have ever done on my own. We are SO thankful for Angelica's program and for Ms. Sarah whom we absolutely adore. Ms. Sarah is so fun, enthusiastic, encouraging, and our son looks forward to his time with her each day of class. She makes learning fun for him and we truly are so thankful. Wish I could give more than 5 stars because truly it's above and beyond anything I could have ever imagined. Thank you for this wonderful program and even more amazing teachers!
