My child enjoys learning at sylvan at his own pace. He’s excited and eager to discover his passion for learning with the help of sylvan staff and curriculum that allow him to be positively rewarded for his efforts and supported if he is struggling.
The student teacher ratio is great, allowing each child to get the right amount of help they need from the tutor. The tokens are also fun for the children as incentives. Very convenient location as well. Their main focus is your child's success!
Scheduling for an appointment and lessons are easy.
That you delivered on the goals set for our learning program. Well done thank you Sylvan
We love Sylvan. We attend three days a week. Both our kids are always eager to go--perhaps its the i-Pad or the reward token system, but they work. They are excelling! It is well worth it, whether your kid is behind in their grade level or need more challenging work. I hardly ever get a complaint from our kids about going.
My daughter really feels confident now. The tutors have her attention and the team is responsive.
What I absolutely love about this school is that they absolutely deliver exactly what they say they're going to. The ultimate customer service
Great staff and teachers
They have a good variety of teachers. The monthly meetings tells me how my kid is improving or what I need to work on.
Hire great teachers, great communication with parents.
Flexibility for classes. Progress reports; structure
My teen daughter has been receiving excellent support/tutoring from Sylvan, EC, for two yesrs. She has been paired with an excellent, skilled and understanding tutor, who has strong high school math skills and now physics. For my student, it is very important to work with the same person each session, and to feel relaxed to explain what it is she does not not understand. She gets that compassion plus precise guidance until she truly “gets it”. As her parent, I’m very grateful and as a student, my daughter counts on getting the help she needs from the Sylvan methods of educational support.
In just 15 sessions, my 3rd grader has not only gained knowledge, but confidence as well. The staff is truly remarkable!
My son responds very well to the Sylvan way of learning. I like that I can check on progress and get data from them.
Sylvan is organized and shows fast results.
My daughter has been very happy with receiving help with her homework. When she does not have homework, the activities that the teacher gives her has been related to the math foundations that my daughter needs to work on.
Scheduling has been wonderful. We had to reschedule a few classes because of illness and vacation and Marcia and Anthony have been very generous. Anthony's response time to my email and texts has been exceptional.
I would definitely recommend Sylvan to friends and family who are looking for outside support for their child.
It's not what I like about it it's what I love about it.
It's very rare that you have someone or something that says they're going to do something and they do it a 100%. They have exceeded my expectations and I am unbelievably happy with the progress my son has had in the short time hes been with them. Everything about who he is as a student has changed for the better. This was the third and final service I've tried to help my son with school. No one else compares and no one else has came even close to what you have. Thank you so much for all you do
My family has been a huge fan of Sylvan Learning Center for almost a year. The whole staff has been a huge blessing to my son.
Something that occurred recently that I greatly appreciated was the MLK Scavenger Hunt. I was pleasantly surprised to see that this was a thing. I was even asked if I would like to participate. I jumped at the opportunity. As a person of color, I would like to Thank You.
