What do you like about our services?

To any parent that has a son or daughter struggling in a subject or two, don't wait to get outside help. My daughter was failing Geometry and Chemistry. Her school offered "study help" but my daughter said she didn't understand the teacher's instruction, she was still lost and kind of gave up.

She felt comfortable at Sylvan and she said it helped her to understand what she originally couldn't understand at school.

She started with little or no understanding of Chemistry and got an F the 1st quarter. With a looming F in the 2nd quarter and only 4 weeks to catch up, she started tutoring at Sylvan Learning Center and she was able to get a C on her Final Exam. I wish we had started Sylvan Learning Center sooner because she ended up NOT passing Chemistry this semester because of all the missing assignments. There was not enough time to complete all the past work and all the current work, and it would have saved her grade if we had started Sylvan sooner.

Sylvan also tutored my daughter in Geometry at the same time, and she was able to get a B- on her Final Exam and passed the semester.

How did we disappoint you and what can we do to make things right?

The Lego robotics experience was okay but for what my child did, it was very overpriced. For less than the price of this 6-week program, my son can have 4 months (1x/week) of most after-school programs at his private school.

What do you like about our services?

Our son enjoys working with the tutors, he show more understanding in the math and reading material he is given. He started at the end of the school year, and the reinforcement has helped him gain confidence in asking for help on both subjects and end the year on a higher note. We are very happy with SYLVAN, we should have inquired sooner!
