I adopted a puppy last March and was looking for a dog trainer. My neighbor recommended I contact Julie & Bruce and called them not only “true dog whisperers” but also incredible people who run a learning academy. I was considered “out of area,” but they made an exception for me and drove the distance to train my puppy. They were confident that after 4-6 sessions my dog would be good to go. That sounded very promising to me! I’ve never hired a dog trainer before so it was an incredible learning experience for me. Bruce is a phenomenal instructor. He educated me that communication and hand signals are key, along with repetition and consistency. My dog wouldn’t be who she is today if it wasn’t for him. Many people become frustrated with their dogs because there is a lack of training. I wish I could give them 10 stars. You truly won’t regret hiring them for your fur baby!
I'm pleased to see the growth my son has made this year in math, reading and socially. I only wish we live closer so we can go more often during the school year. Ms. D has been an amazing tutor and a huge blessing for our son. Her patience, kindness, and knowledge has helped promote his motivation, self-confidence, and learning skills this year. My son had horrible anxiety whenever he knew he had to do school work. He said Mrs. D is the "real" nice, not "fake" nice like the teachers in school. I'm sad he feels that way about the adults he works with in our school district but I'm so thankful he has a place like Armenta's to feel safe and not rushed to complete tasks. I love how Mrs. Armenta and Mr. Smith would take the students for a walk and allow my son to care for the beautiful aquarium. Also learn about topics like sealife- which was so engaging for my son. They have fun crafts to do as a group and also great incentives. Call Mrs. Armenta, she's easy to work with and understands how special kids learn. Amazing place.
We are so proud of our Son Atlas. He's been going to Ms. Armenta's for 2 months now and we have seen wonderful improvements! We are really impressed with his ability to work hard and hold attention for a solid hour each week. We are proud of our bright 4 year old.
I'm grateful to have found Armenta Learning Academy. Unlike large establishments, they were able to customize a learning plan unique to my son. They can easily change things up if something is not working. They have lots of different options to keep learning fun! Both Ms. Armenta and Ms. Harms are very dedicated, kind and great at what they do. They know well how to make the kids feel seen, heard and loved.
