Customer Testimonials
Our time at Sylvan was wonderful, from the teachers to supervisors and small group environment. We are pleased with not only the cleanliness of the space, but the tranquility it provides. The reward system keeps the students engaged and motivated. Thank you for providing a safe place for students to thrive in.
My son really enjoys going to Sylvan! The teachers are amazing and communication is at it’s finest. I’m very impressed with Sylvan. I recommend Sylvan to every parent!
The environment and progress in my child.
Since day one, I felt so welcome and honestly, it’s the best experience so far my daughter has never gone to TUTORING, but for whatever reason every time she’s going to attend she really gets so happy and she loves to have TUTORING with everybody however, I believe she has a favorite and that is Arthur. She says that he explained so well and she feels really comfortable with him and I am so happy and grateful and thankful for that. I would recommend this place in a heartbeat to whoever needs TUTORING the number one thing there is that they totally listen to you. They do not interrupt you. They wait until you’re finished talking love this place.
Very helpful and accommodating with both of my girl's schedules.
My daughter started at Sylvan after Covid when she was struggling in math. We purchased a whole package and somehow didn't end up using all the sessions. This year Sylvan reached out to remind us that we had some remaining sessions and since my daughter is now in grade 12 pre Calculus she has been using those sessions for extra help and is feeling so much better about her learning and her ability to succeed in that class. Both times she was very pleased with the help she received at Sylvan.
A safe place for my teenager to learn. We love Sylvan!
Great communication to start our process. Staff very supportive to students with increased anxiety and stress coming to a new place.
My children really enjoy their tutoring sessions. It is helping them so much! It’s building confidence and understanding for my son, and he has rrqlly connected with his teacher. This is a wonderful
environment for any child to learn in. They meet your kids where they’re at and give them the tools to get to where they need to be. Going to Sylvan Learning Center was a great decision.
We are very impressed with the director’s communication and care and concern for the kids. We are pleased with the way learning is organized and measured. We find the monthly progress conferences to be useful and insightful. We have not been in the program very long, so I cannot vouch fully for my kids’ progress yet but I am confident this will help them reach their potential.
I can't say enough great things about Bonny and Sylvan tutoring program. My son was a bit lost in his calculus class, but after a few sessions with Bonny he has an A and really understands the concepts. On my first phone conversation with Bonny, she knew who my son's teacher was at Canyon Crest Academy and was able to get the syllabus and find out exactly where he was in the course. I highly recommend Sylvan!!
Kids love the program and the tutors and have made so much progress in the short time they have been attending. Have shared this resource with many.
My daughter has improved so much, she even has more confidence on her skills and enjoy learning much more.
Sylvan in O'fallon IL has a great staff. They have contributed greatly to our son's success and advancement in Reading. Without Judy, Greg, and the staff our son would not be reading as well as he does today! The staff at Sylvan care about our son and his progression and we appreciate all their hard work and dedication to the children that attend Sylvan for assistance.
Our daughter started Sylvan in the summer and it has been a good experience. In just two months her reading and writing skills have gone up a whole grade already. Thank you Sylvan!
We are already noticing an increase in confidence as well as improved school performance after just 6 weeks!
Sylvan was able to let me know where my child was and how they can help her moving forward. Everything was easy to understand. I like that I get monthly updates in a quick conference. This tells me what skills she has accomplished and what she will be working on next. This gives me information on how she is progressing. My child enjoys the tutors. She is making great progress. School is something she doesn't enjoy but she does enjoy going to tutoring. I feel like they are helping her to get where she needs to be and it is specific to her needs. They work on her specifuc skills she needs to develop and not just generic stuff. This is what is the best about Sylvan. It is tailored to my child.
Emma really enjoys Sylvan learning!
We have seen excellent progress in our son's reading since he started receiving tutoring at Sylvan. He progressed from significantly below grade level to above average in his grade in under a year and he enjoys attending. We are grateful for the expertise of the tutors and the Centre Director, Melanie.
My son's math skills have improved tremendously. He looks forward to attending his tutoring session. Staff are friendly and always willing to help.
Friendly and professional communication. Child feels comfortable with staff and peers. Tutoring is helping with test scores for school.
My teenager is more confident when completing her math and reading assignments now that she is receiving tutoring from you all

We’ve been attending Sylvan for 3 years and it has been a wonderful experience. Darcia and all of the staff have helped build my son’s confidence with Math. So grateful for Sylvan.
We enjoyed our time with sylvan
We live far away so it was hard to drive to victoria
If it was closer to sidney we would consider still attending and even attending more than twice a week
Thanks for helping gabe as much as you did I’m hoping it has given him the okay he needs
My son has been working on study skills and English since July. He likes how the worksheets are done, the writing prompts and assignments, and how the questions on the tablet are done and explained. He thinks the program has been very good and does not have any criticism or constructive feedback to share. Good job, Sylvan!

Sylvan didn’t just bring my grandchildren up to grade level they soared in confidence-that confidence carried over into so much more than the subjects they were working on. It showed up in their everyday activities, their willingness to try new things, and the way they blossomed all around.
And the prizes? TOP-NOTCH! I’m not kidding when I say the Director herself would wait in line to get Pokémon cards so my son would have something exciting to work toward earning with his tokens! That’s the kind of dedication and thoughtfulness you don’t forget.
You can tell when a team truly cares. The Layton team wasn’t just invested in my kids’ academic success they were invested in them as PEOPLE. They celebrated their victories, encouraged them through challenges, and helped them believe in themselves.
