"Ms. Viel has been an invaluable advocate for our son, and we wholeheartedly recommend her without hesitation. As his tutor, she tailors her approach to meet his academic needs, incorporating engaging activities, movement breaks, and sensory input to keep him focused and supported. Beyond her role as a tutor, Ms. Viel has been instrumental in advocating for our son in school as our educational consultant. She helps us facilitate smooth communication between the various members of his educational team, including his teachers, therapists, case manager, and school administration. She also provides insightful feedback on his IEP, tracks his progress throughout the year, and presents us with data across multiple areas. Thanks to Erica’s guidance, we were able to secure the support our son needs to succeed in school, and for that, we are truly grateful."-Megan L.
“As a parent you will do anything for your child. My son didn’t like to read and as a result got behind on his language arts skills. We found Erica through a friend and what AMAZING luck we had! We cannot put into words how grateful we are for her. Erica found a way to connect with our son and was able to get him interested in reading. My son has since tested above his grade in all his language arts skills and openly discusses with Erica challenges at school which they can address. Erica is always available to hear our concerns, discuss progress, provide guidance but mostly provide the support any parent needs. We are still working with Erica on his language arts skills but are also adding executive skills work too!”-Sharon M.
“Navigating the school system can be frustrating. You just want to throw your hands up and say forget it, even though you want what is best for your child. After Covid, our son was diagnosed with ADHD and was 3 years behind his grade level. A family member recommended that we reach out to Mrs. Viel, whom they worked with at the time. They said she always put her kids first, wanting only what was best for them, even if it ruffled some feathers. It was the best phone call we ever made, as Mrs. Viel is a godsend. Her recommendations for our sons IEP have helped him achieve success that we didn’t think was possible. Because of her tenacity to make all kids be treated equally, students in elementary school that are in self-contained classes will now have specials with their peers. She is always checking in, seeing how he is doing not just in school but life in general. Mrs. Viel makes you feel like part of her family, not just a client. I highly recommend that you reach out to Mrs. Viel if you need help advocating for your child as it will be the best phone call you ever make.”-Jill & Jennifer A.
“We have been so fortunate to have Ms. Viel work with our children, and the experience has been positive for our whole family. From the first sessions we had nearly 4 years ago, Ms. Viel's passion and love of teaching shined through. She made an instant connection with my children and through this understanding of their needs, Ms. Viel has kept my boys engaged and enthusiastic about learning. My children have gained confidence through Ms. Viel's effective instruction and they look forward to each week's sessions. Ms. Viel goes above and beyond and I am so grateful for the love, care and skill she places in her lessons with my children. I cannot recommend Ms. Viel enough!”-Emily G.
