The evidence is clear. Parents and teachers watch Sylvan students develop confidence and enthusiasm in school, get better grades, have fewer homework struggles and find a new love for learning. There's no better way to visualize the difference Sylvan will make in your child's life than to read the experiences of other Sylvan students and families:
“Sylvan has done so much for my daughter and my son. Thank you! I definitely recommend Sylvan to other parents.”
- Emily K., Parent“[My daughter] is more confident in her schoolwork and her reading. She's grabbing me all the time and saying, 'Listen to this! Listen to this!' and doing all sorts of reading, and explaining her homework to me instead of me explaining it to her.”
- Douglas V., Parent“[Our son] is now in sixth grade and his math skills are up to a seventh grade level. His confidence, grades and attitude have improved. With continued hard work, we know that [our son] will be successful throughout his school years. Sylvan has played an important role in that success.”
- Lowell and Diane, Sylvan Parents“Now that I take math at Sylvan, I feel that I can do any math problem, whether it is hard or easy, I can do it.”
- Gabrielle, Sylvan Student“A special thanks to the [Sylvan] instructors, [my son] really enjoys his sessions... which truly is a first for him. To see him read street signs, and ads while I'm driving proves that he's learning.”
- Josie F. Sylvan Parent“I did it. I believe that I can do it now. And I'm not just ignoring my work. I'm understanding my work, and I'm organizing myself.”
- Shirlene, Sylvan Student“I dreaded going to algebra class. I tried to get out of answering questions, I did whatever I could. Now, because of Sylvan, I just understand it. Everything came together and I know algebra really well now. It feels like I have had a big weight lifted off my back.”
- Sean, Sylvan Student“We have had both of our children enrolled at Sylvan and find it to be the best educational help available to parents.”
- Tammy D., Sylvan Parent“Before I didn't want to read to my little sister, because I couldn't read as well and I didn't want to be made fun of by my little sister. Now I'm ready to read [books] to her and I'm not as scared of what she's going to say if I mess up on a word.”
- Carl, Sylvan Student“My children weren't doing badly in school at all. They were doing great in school. But with Sylvan, that gives them that extra background, that foundation. I think that's important.”
- Shafiq S., Sylvan Parent“Before Sylvan I was a little bit iffy and nervous about taking the SAT. And now I'm more comfortable and confident about how to take the test and the material on the test.”
- Jackie, Sylvan Student“We are very pleased with Sylvan. The staff at Sylvan listened to our needs and are now working towards reaching my son's goal.”
- Irene C., Sylvan Parent“My grandson, before Sylvan, was terrified of math. He had a real phobia about math. And since he's been coming to Sylvan, his ability to do the math is much better. He's not fearful of it anymore, and my grandson's confidence has been built up tremendously. Now he will tackle the math where previously he would run from it.”
- John F., Sylvan Grandparent“Sylvan greatly helped my daughter get her self-esteem back on track. She is more eager to step up to challenges...”
- Mawuena G., Sylvan Parent“I was able to feel and see my progression with each class session.”
- Deborah, Sylvan Student“My son previously had attended Sylvan, and we were very impressed with the speed with which he was able to master the skills he had been missing, and put him back on track at school. My daughter's experience to date at Sylvan shows that she is equally on the same path, and we are very pleased.”
- Robert H., Sylvan Parent“I never thought I would stay up late reading. I just keep reading and reading, and it's fun. It's all because of Sylvan.”
- Michael, Sylvan Student“I have been very impressed with our Sylvan experience... Our daughter loves coming and the token system is awesome. The staff has even allowed our daughter to receive stickers as a reward so she will learn to save her tokens. Very accommodating!”
- Jacqueline H., Sylvan Parent“Math is a lot of fun now, because I know I can do it.”
- Kimberly, Sylvan Student“I only wish the school system could provide such individual programming. It is great to see my son enjoy learning again!”
- Maureen D., Sylvan Parent“Now that I have been to Sylvan and my skills have been reinforced, I've set my goals to get into a great college.”
- Megan, Sylvan Student
