Sylvan Learning Reviews

Sylvan is hurting my pocket but my son was struggling. The teacher that he had wasn’t right there. My husband and I were frustrated and we didn't know what to do at home. We were all sitting there, crying because we didn't know how to break the apples for him to understand multiplication and division. So, I started doing research and we came across Sylvan. I went there when I was young so I called them. My son shuts down when he doesn’t understand. He doesn't wanna talk about it. But right now, he’s happy. He goes four days a week and on a Friday, he wanna go. He says the teachers at Sylvan are great. They explain to him everything and he understands them the way they're teaching him. He likes it. So that makes me happy.

Sylvan has been great. They've been very responsive in helping our daughter. She's doing Reading and she's doing better. I just feel like it's very expensive. It's $60 an hour and we have to do it two hours a week minimum. So, it adds up really quickly.

Enrolling with Sylvan was good. We used them before as well. My child have been doing Math and Reading with them for 2 months now and it's been positive. Sylvan does good tutoring sessions.

My son likes Sylvan. He enjoys it, and he understands stuff. Getting him in was easy because it was some type of program that was done through his school, and all I had to do was register him. I didn't have to make any payments. I do tap in their website every now and then just to check on the status of his learning. The only thing is I don't know how to read the bar graph that they have set up. I had to ask them what it means because it's in different colors and numbers. I confused with that. Other than that, Sylvan stays in contact with you.

My daughter takes tutoring from Sylvan. She's been going twice a week since February, but we took the summer off. And she'll go back in August. She's in first grade and she's done very well. She's made a lot of improvement and she loves her tutor. She's also gone up 47% in reading. Sylvan follows up at the end of each tutoring session, on what they covered and how she was doing. They reassess her every so often to see if they need to redirect their focus. We've had a very positive experience in all aspects. I would recommend them for anyone's kids.

Sylvan's a busy place. There's a lot going on ‘cause they have a lot of people. But my daughter was very happy. She went in for 2 months for the SAT prep. It was hard because they were touching on subjects that she didn't know or hadn't seen. The first part of it seemed a review. The second, the middle and the end parts became a lot harder as she had to sit down, learn and practice. We had our PSAT practice test with her school. Then they did an actual SAT practice test with her. They were able to pin down what areas she was struggling with. Her program was based on the areas that she missed. She did well on her test. She went from a 950 to an 1,100. Sylvan did their job. The price is high. It's $85 an hour. But it's definitely worth the money. You'll see results. I did a different tutoring service, and it was pricier and not as good. Sylvan's customer service is excellent as well. The proctor is nice and very understanding.

I went to Sylvan when I was a kid and now my daughter goes there for Reading. She's gained confidence and more willing to read at home. She was able to build some of the previous skills that she was missing so that she could move along with her reading level. Sylvan has worked for my child. She's enjoyed it and is excited to go and do it. If others have a child that's struggling, then Sylvan would be worth trying.

My son just finished kindergarten, and we noticed that he was behind. We have two other kids who are older than him and a son who is younger than him. We've never had a situation where our kids are academically showing signs of being behind, so we were initially trying to get him caught up with his peers. We went with Sylvan and it was an easy process with them. The people that we're working with there in Abilene are super friendly. My husband and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. They've explained everything to us. We have Zoom calls periodically to talk about our son's progress, and it makes us feel they're invested. We've also talked about having my son's school RDI person on the calls too once school starts back again because we're seeing some differences from what the school is seeing to what Sylvan’s seeing. That way, we can all be on the same page to help him.

My daughter was in speech and occupational therapy, and they were doing a lot of literacy type stuff with her. She was in that for six years. It's been great with Sylvan and I would recommend them. The people are very friendly. They do the tutoring on iPad. They have games or they read a paragraph and answer questions. If your child is struggling with Reading and Math, Sylvan is the place to go. My youngest can be a little temperamental at times but they seem to enjoy it.

Enrolling with Sylvan was good experience and I would recommend them. They're very helpful and kind. My daughter did English and Reading and went through different seasons, one summer, and when she was in kindergarten. I like their portal login. I usually get a link in the messages when I confirm her tutoring session and it's nice to have that online access, too. If she gets so many tokens or tickets, she can pick a price. I'm hoping she will keep growing more of an interest and a desire to improving her reading. A few of my friends utilize Sylvan and some doctor's kids as well attended. They're all happy.

I would recommend Sylvan Learning to everyone. It helps great in Reading and Math because every time my granddaughter went, it would be 100.

Sylvan Learning has been a great resource for my son in helping him learn and develop. They have been more than accommodating as far as helping him develop educationally. Everyone has been more than happy to help. They got a great personality. And you can tell that they're all interested to see the children develop. Awesome experience. I targeted Reading and Writing being that my son's grades were subpar in those areas. Based off my son's NWEA scores he recently received, they have improved. There's a correlation between when he was going to Sylvan and when he got his scores back versus the previous year.

Sylvan Learning was near my home and affordable. Also, enrolling was quick. They explained the process. My child went from February through May. There’s an improvement. It worked.

We've only been doing Sylvan for about a month and a half and my only concern is that I don't know what my child is learning. We have a progress report but I need more information. She’s doing Reading and I can’t see a difference. It's pre-kindergarten to kindergarten, so it's letters and it’s hard to gauge.

My 8 year old daughter was struggling in 2nd grade due to grief and sicknesses. Once I put her in Sylvan during the 2nd semester at school her understanding grew and her grades began to climb. For the 1st time in the whole school year she finally made the AB honor roll and she received the BUG award (Bring Up Grade). I'm so thankful for Sylvan for a job well done.

Sylvan Learning has been awesome. Everyone's great when I go there, and my daughter loves the lady that helps her. She was bored yesterday and said, "I wish I had Sylvan today." She wants to go there when it's not even scheduled. It's good that she loves it. There was another little girl in her class that I'm friends with her mom, and I mentioned to do Sylvan instead of summer school. It is a little expensive though. This summer, I cut down to one day a week because of that, plus I have to pay for summer care.

If your child is struggling in any area and you are looking for a difference, sign up with Sylvan Learning Centers. It is not cheap, but it is worth every dime. It is much better, more hands-on, smaller setting. So, my son was able to focus better. Also, the tutors do wonderfully. Some of them are older, so they take a little time. All of them are in education in some kind of way. They're hands-on and helpful. They help rein it in for my son. He has mastered a ton of skills since he has been there. He enjoys it. We do every Wednesday and Saturday. When children get home from school, they just wanna veg out. But once my son came from Sylvan, I could tell he learned something. He would be more plugged in and more engaged when he would come home. I could tell that he was stimulated when he was there.

My son was struggling a little bit in school and I got him registered because I used Sylvan in Columbia before as well. But he did very good. The teachers there were wonderful. I just moved and the only thing that I didn't wanna move and leave was Sylvan, which sounds crazy. I wish they had one here in Huntsville, Madison. With Sylvan, my son was able to meet with the teachers. Whereas with Kumon, they give the kids these booklets and you just have to sit with them at home and make sure they do them. It's very repetitious and not effective. It was probably a big waste of $250 a month. I paid Sylvan more but you got the one-on-one with the teachers.

My kids had a good experience at Sylvan. The instructors were good. My kids improved somewhat. There's still a lot of room for improvement. But they understood some of the concepts a little bit better. We'll use them if needed in future still.

They help my child with chemistry and math. He's been getting help with his homework and he has improved on his test scores since then. He also likes his tutor. But it's a little expensive.

I would recommend Sylvan. My child was tutored in Math and ELA and it was a very positive experience. His self-confidence has improved and it was what got him turned around. James, my son, is my wife's nephew. We had a kinship guardian on him when he was four years old and he is now 12. Almost five years ago, my wife passed away, and James wanted to stay with me, and I had to fight his mother and all my in-laws. So he was put through the wringer. We had to adopt him and it was such a long process. He was worn down mentally at the end of all this. So Sylvan was almost like a wake-up call. The director of the location that I'm dealing with knew the ins and outs of the educational process from dealing with the different districts and she was very helpful in getting me to decipher what my district was about to do to me, which is extremely unfair. The DCP&P would be involved and I did not wanna go that route at all.

Everybody there at Sylvan Learning Centers was very nice. When we met the center director, I had confidence in her because of the way she handled herself and spoke about their programs. The tutor gave him a lot of confidence in being able to do Math. We were coming from a not awesome school situation. And we found ourselves being home schooled suddenly. So as a transition from school to home school, filling in the gaps that we had and figuring out what we needed to do. I'm also a teacher, and having that data collection and knowing that you're on the right track is helpful. I've had a couple of other families that have gone and had just progress monitoring type stuff that it's very helpful for home school moms for that. It was a very positive experience.

As soon as I sent the email out with my information, a lady from Sylvan Learning Centers called. I sent the email less than an hour when she called. She was thorough. She asked me a lot of important information, especially about the personality Melody has. That was a big thing. Because she tried to see how my daughter has learned. It was very detailed. I love the fact that it was a lot of information. It was very thorough and helpful. I was at my wit's end. The lady was very good with enrollment. I felt like it was about Melody with the whole enrollment. It was focused on her, especially with her knowing her personality.

We got a voucher through the state and we did Varsity Tutors. It wasn’t very well explained to us what we could utilize with the services or with that voucher. Varsity Tutors had us doing one hour a week for my son and it was virtual whereas Sylvan is in-person and interactive. Plus, there were up to four hours a week or 24 hours in each session that we could use. They were flexible around our work and school schedules.

Sylvan strives to help the children. Initially, the tutor focused on Reading, English and Math but in high school, we utilized the homework where they helped my child with whatever he needed to work on and we built a strategy on what to work with. There were some options for college students to come to the high school and tutoring on certain days. So we split up everything that my child needed between the high school and Sylvan. He was getting four days but he was doing two days a week at Sylvan. He doesn't like going because it's extra work but it encourages him. He has an IEP so he strives to be on the same plane as the other children. It gives him more confidence knowing that he’s keeping up with his classmates. Timewise, he would rather do other things with that hour. But he sees the final outcome as being a positive.

My son loves Sylvan. He's engaged. When he leaves there, he's always excited about what he learned and what he earned. He feels like he's doing better in class. It gives him more confidence. He picks up books and reads them now without me having to ask him. The tutor and my son focus on Math but they also do Reading, Writing and Comprehension. My son sits at a table with a couple of other children and they work on different projects. They take speed tests. Yesterday, they were doing a comprehension test to see where he's at with what Sylvan is teaching him. In the short period of time he's been there, he went from a second-grade comprehension to grade level and now, they're working on getting him up to fifth grade. And he's only in the fourth grade. It was easy enrolling in Sylvan but it is expensive. It’s out of reach for a lot of people and I wouldn't have been able to afford it. My father is paying for it.

We started out for an hour. Now that it's summer, we had the option of doing two hours and my child was like, "Yeah, I wanna do it." He did not kick and scream about it. He enjoys going. He's primarily on reading and writing, but we're gonna be adding math to the mix too. It's great. If you can afford it, it's a really good option. When I called customer service, somehow the phone got ported to another location, but they still helped me and knew who I was talking about. I felt like the branches were very integrated, so it didn't matter which one I called.

Our experience with Sylvan has been amazing. Sylvan was the first one that I tapped into online and Steve from the center immediately called me and made it very easy to follow. I follow her dashboard online and I see what she's mastered, what's coming up and what's in process. It's very friendly in that regard. The results that my daughter has had from March to date are very noticeable in school. Teachers are saying it's been a 360. It's made her much more confident and I feel empowered by that.

My child had a very good experience with Sylvan Learning. The enrollment process was very easy. The tutors were well-qualified as well. Sylvan offers a very good ACT prep course if others are looking for one.

Their curriculum is the best. It's a little bit more expensive than others, but the results seem consistent. They're good and they have strong communication, too.

So far, our experience with Sylvan has been fantastic. Our child absolutely loves going and it's been very encouraging as far as her progress and learning to read and her general skills with attacking tasks at school. Where we are right now, the big focus has been reading structure and phonics and the basics, to get her a little bit on grade level and above. She talks about how much fun she had and what she learned and then about her points. They have a point system. My child is very incentivized by prizes. She's winning all of it. Anything that creates a structure for her to feel like she's winning or getting ahead, she likes it. They're great, super responsive, on top of it and very accommodating.

They're helping my granddaughter in reading and math. When Kennedy has homework that needs to be done, they focus on the homework. If she doesn't have homework, they focus on trying to improve her skills in those areas. They're awesome. The tutors themselves work well with Kennedy. They're a lot more patient with her than I would be. When John calls me with reports, he's very thorough.

I love our experience with Sylvan. They helped my child in Math and English. Our overall learning experience was good.

Every child could benefit from Sylvan, especially anybody who is struggling. Whenever I hear any of my friends' kids struggling and are not doing well, I tell them to take them to Sylvan. They're really nice. I don't think that my son's loving what he's doing, but we're seeing an improvement in the gap. We're trying to get him prepared for high school so this is great for him.

Sylvan is near us. My son is doing English because his level got below his average. Before, it was high but he's not practicing as well. The first assessment was bad. But the second assessment, they told me he's at his third level, and he may be at the mid now of the third level. Mainly, he's improving. He is a good learner. The problem is he doesn't focus all the time. So, he always needs someone to push him and to make him work. Whenever he's not willing to work, he gets bad grades. My son is loving the teacher. They are always giving their feedback and they are helpful. I'm happy with them. I feel that they are good. My son is able to work with them, and they are nice.

Sylvan designed a program to figure out where my son's level of understanding was with algebra. It looks like they've taken him back to the very, very beginning. This is our second month and they're still at pre-algebra. So, it's not going along very fast. But he said it's something to do with the way that this program is set up. My son needs to do a couple of things and then they test him. If you don't do well on that test, then it bumps you back. So it keeps bumping back and bumping back. But there's a second way to do it, and that is what they started last week. So I'm hoping that it maybe goes along a little quicker. But I have nothing against the tutor. It's just the way the program is designed.

I went to Sylvan when I was a kid. So when my son needed tutoring, I signed him up there. He's doing math now. His math grade has improved quite a bit since he started. He likes Sylvan. Customer service has been great. Everybody's very positive and nice. It's been a good experience for us overall and I would recommend Sylvan.

I like Sylvan Learning Centers. I reached out to them. They did an assessment. They told me where my son was. He was behind. He has been going there every Saturday, because we live so far from the closest center, for eight weeks now. My son loves it. He likes that it would be on his own pace but he would still get his work done. That's a big thing for kids. The classroom setting is harder. My son would rather do tutoring Monday through Friday than to be in a classroom. He admires it a lot. I have seen improvement, especially with the speed of my son’s his reading. And Sylvan will do a reevaluation to see where he's at in July. That's exciting too. I appreciate the staff that are there. They work with me. Even with my payments, they've been patient with me.

Sylvan was great. My kid did different things. They had a bunch of STEM activities and team-building and different types of science-focused activities and experiments. My kid had a lot of fun. She loved it. She learned about gravity and different things about rocks and minerals. They learned a bunch of things. The tutors were professional, knowledgeable, and nice. But Sylvan could have shared upcoming classes and events a little bit better. They're a little bit vague on that. Other than that, I highly recommend them.

Sylvan Learning Centers is a great tool to use to get your children set up if they're behind. My child is more focused and a lot better.

The tutor focuses on Math and Reading for my child. Sylvan has gone above and beyond to accommodate and we’re seeing fantastic results.

The governor is helping people to get tutored for free and when I chose Sylvan versus the other companies that contract with the State of Arizona, they don't offer it online or at home. They offered it in person in school, which makes it easy as far as convenience. If you're going in person, there's always a tutor there. Also, their tutors have a bachelor's degree at the very minimum and they have a license in teaching. They are very friendly and the one we go to is very homely. It's very unthreatening and class is very well decorated.

Our experience with Sylvan was fine. They helped my child in Math. I thought it was gonna be one-on-one, but it was more like she was helping other people with my daughter. Others should try it, too.

My child did math and reading with Sylvan. He needed help with phonological awareness because he had a bit of a speech issue. He missed a lot of schoolwork. It was a good experience with Sylvan. All the teachers and everybody in there were great and supportive.

When I made the decision to go to Sylvan to seek outside assistance for my son, they have been extremely helpful as far as breaking down my son's IEP in a more understandable way versus the school. They have really pointed out a lot of gaps as to where the school has failed him and the school's lack of ability to accommodate my son has been a little disturbing. Sylvan has helped bridge those gaps and I wish we have taken that road sooner. Things would have been much better long-term for my son. Unfortunately, he's a junior in high school, so we're playing severe catch-up. But Sylvan's been a huge help in his academic confidence, making him a little bit more of a better student, and making him able to understand the work and where he was missing some crucial learning gaps.

My experience with Sylvan has been good. My children love it. They like their tutors. I also love the director of the facility, Jewel and overall, they're doing well. They're hands-on and they understand the needs of the child. It's pricey, but I think it's worth it.

My son has only been on Sylvan's program for a couple of months. They did an assessment and they are working on him with lessons, taking him back to where his competency level is and working from there forward, and he is improving little by little. Overall, he is doing better. He's a reluctant learner. But he has started saying that going to reading tutor is not so bad, which is a good thing for him. He has improved on his spelling tests and his reading comprehension test at school. Sylvan is definitely worth the expense and the effort if someone is having reading problems because they have a good program. And it's effective. Iit is pricey. But to learn to read, it's worth it. The teachers and the administrator at Sylvan are really kind and very personable. They make my son feel like he's the cool kid coming into class. So it's a very welcoming atmosphere.

Sylvan Learning is doing a very good job. My daughter is doing math, and she likes the program. I wish they would do more help with homework. They only focus on homework for the first 15 minutes. But she's learning. It's given her confidence back. It's been a good experience. They've been very personable, very friendly, and willing to help. Going with Sylvan is worth the money to get your kids in because my daughter has grown about four grade levels in two months.

The tutor focused on Pre-Algebra for my daughter and she enjoyed it. I was thinking that she wouldn’t like going to extra school but Sylvan gave her a lot of confidence, which helped her a lot with everything. I would recommend it. Their customer service was great.

We're doing Reading and Writing with Sylvan and we’ve seen significant improvement. We've only been with them for two months now and my child seems to be very engaged. Normally, with extracurricular activities, he usually protests or pouts or has difficulty going. He never protests with Sylvan. He's always in a good mood and runs in. Sylvan has a store where you earn points. It's all gamified. On the first day, when he did the assessment, he picked out the toy he wanted and he's been eagerly working towards it and counting his points every single day. That helps keep him motivated. It's fun for him and he's happy with it.

We’re doing all the subject areas in Sylvan but Reading and Writing are the top things right now. My daughter has improved, especially within a month. She does the big package, which is 16 hours a month. It’s been a great experience. We're still working on motivation but other than that, the grades and confidence are up. So that's a big one. Her grades have gone up a whole grade level so I'm proud of her. People are friendly at Sylvan and make it easy. It’s a fun atmosphere and the incentives are good for the kids. People should do it.

Sylvan has helped with Reading and my daughter did well. I like that. I was surprised at her doing as well as she did. She's in 4th grade and doing 5th-grade Reading. Sylvan would be worth people’s while for Reading. But with Math, they are doing good but my daughter is just not catching up with that. She's doing 2nd-grade Math. She started in February and she’s not progressing too much. But it’s not because Sylvan is not teaching her. She has a problem. I’ve been taking her to the therapist.

My son has been going to Sylvan for a month and he likes it. He enjoys and looks forward to going. But it's pretty expensive.

Sylvan has its ducks in a row a little better. They seem to know what they're doing a little more and they're not just guessing day to day. They have a plan. My son is doing math with them. They tell me that he has mastered five skills. He's only in third grade, so I'm hoping that this school year, he'll be a little more caught up with his peers. I didn't expect the world to be completely changed over the course of two months, but he is enjoying going to Sylvan. He comes home with a more positive attitude about math, which is very important.

We've been doing the tutorial with Sylvan since March and she seems more confident with her reading. Before, she would just look at the word and try to start a conversation about something else and not read the word at all. So, now, she at least tries. And her teacher has noticed a difference as well in her willingness to read in class. She’s getting the help that she needs so she can be a stronger reader. I can tell the difference in her. Sylvan gives us updates but I don't know what's going on inside of the center. I'm more of a visual person, so I would like to see what they do in the session and how the students are learning. When I get her home, she reads some words and it seems like it's going smoother. But I was curious to know what they were talking about and how it was being taught to her. Sylvan costs a lot of money but it's worth it.

Sylvan is expensive but it's worth it. My child loves it and has way more confidence now with reading. She doesn't get frustrated as quickly when she's reading now.

My son needed help with reading and Sylvan was right where we live and it was very available. They can focus in the areas that the kids need and they are very in line with the curriculum at the schools. Since he started to do it, he improved a lot and did a good job on reading.

I used to attend Sylvan for a very short amount of time when I was younger and when my kid needed help, I kind of reached back out to what I know. My son likes going because they give out tokens. He bought two shirts of different colors and wears it every single time and says he loves it. He needed help with reading, writing, and math and they did the assessments. We tested okay for math so Gail, the head honcho over there, created a plan to where we're gonna work on reading and writing. When he's made progress with that, we'll go over to math and we'll incorporate math within our plan too. Also, I can communicate with the staff at the Sylvan in Tacoma and they are very responsive, in a timely manner too, which is awesome. They work well with our schedule so if we can't make it for the day or I need to switch a date, they are very accommodating. They're very helpful and they'll work with you.

I like Sylvan and they have been very helpful. They're doing Reading with my child. She likes going to Sylvan.

Our experience with Sylvan has been excellent. I'm very pleased and happy with them. They're doing an excellent job with my granddaughter and she has shown a big improvement. The one we go to is a wonderful center. The staff is great working with the children. They give the kids incentives, like they do with their shirts, they give coins or tokens. They make it fun and interesting. She loves going there.

We're doing Math and English with Sylvan, like homework help. Our experience with them has been positive.

We're doing reading with Sylvan because that's my child's weakest area. We're gonna try to go into math this summer. He's reading better now. He knows how to sound out his words. He's trying. At least he's having a little bit more confidence. I can feel that. He's improving. I'll always recommend them.

The communication with the tutor is good and my child enjoys Sylvan. If they have to go somewhere, they've always come back with a positive experience. The cost is a lot. You wish you could be able to do the max amount of sessions to get the results sooner from the more frequent touch points but it's expensive. Also, I wish they had more hours available. We've been able to make it work but it'd be nice if it was more hours because they're not open on Mondays or Fridays. The quality is good, though, and they work with us really well.

There's a lot of one-on-one and independent work with my daughter, mostly one-on-one. They're going over all the basics with reading that she's been struggling with and understanding. She loves Sylvan and she has already made a significant progress in a couple months. Also, they're very professional, really good at communication, which is a huge thing for me, and flexible. If I can't take her there, they're able to work something out with me. The only downfall is people that cannot afford it are gonna be struggling. It costs an arm and a leg.

Sylvan is reliable and the schedule is flexible. I like the center, especially the person who I talked to to make the scheduling. That's the best part. My kid is a high schooler so whenever they have a question, I just arrange a session.

My nephew needed help in reading and math, so I contacted Sylvan. He was at a level one when he started with them and now, he's almost up to a level five. It was expensive but he needed it.

Sylvan is doing wonders and I love it. It was very easy to sign up with them. We did a pretest for my son and after that, we knew exactly where he stood. Then all we had to do was sign paperwork. They gave me a lot of background about Sylvan, how long they were open, how many people they helped, and how they came out on top. Then they gave me a price range of what I could afford and what I couldn't. And they really helped me out with it.

I love Sylvan. It's expensive, but my son is making great improvements. He's doing Math and Reading.

Sylvan Learning Centers has proven to work where the school did not. My kids have both grown so much over the last year that the school even reached out to us and asked us what they were doing to gain that much growth. When I call Sylvan to ask them if my kids could come another day instead, they work with us because of our schedules. I've already recommended Sylvan to six other people. It's the best choice I've made for my kids for their future.

My kid is doing reading at Sylvan and he's made an improvement right away. They're great. I asked him how it went and he would always says it was good.

They're focusing on Reading, Writing, and Spelling with my child. They have a very open door policy with talking to the directors. If I ask them how my child is doing and that I need to see a assessment, they send me an email of the assessment, which is pretty good and helpful. The only thing is we could have something for when my child does the computer-based assessment in the office or reading, something to go over during the week with her that I can see what she's doing so that if there's anything I can help her on my end.

My son is going over Algebra 1 at Sylvan. I feel like his confidence has gotten better. He still needs a little bit of help with his math, but I feel like I do not have to repeat everything as much as I need to. His grades in math have improved. He's not as frustrated with it because he knows he has the extra help on Saturdays. They were also supposed to help get him on age level with as far as his math skills go all together, but he's still a little bit behind there, but fundamentally, certain things that used to be like, “Wait a minute. I don't know how to do this” has gotten better.

Go to Sylvan Learning Centers if your child needs help with their stuff. I felt very confident about them. My child liked them a lot. He thinks the teachers are very nice and knowledgeable. And he's learning a lot. I tell people to go there.

I looked at their pricing and their availability and it worked with what we were looking for. Signing up was super easy and relatively painless and them making sure that we knew all the pricing and all the information beforehand was awesome. I would recommend Sylvan highly if someone's child is struggling in any field.

My daughter's been going to Sylvan all year and everything's been good. I'm concerned about her progress in Reading but her Math seems to be picking up quickly. It doesn't seem like she has a steady tutor so I don't know if Sylvan is on course of knowing what her weaknesses are or if they're just throwing her in and trying to teach her something. So, I'm curious about that.

Our child is learning English at Sylvan. She's still struggling but there is some improvement after three and a half months with them. She likes going to Sylvan and she goes twice a week. It's very expensive but I would tell my friends to go there.

My son has been pretty disenfranchised with school since he was young. We were told that there was no learning disability, it was just a lack of interest. He'd fallen behind in his academics, so we had him in speech, reading and other courses at school. We even held him back a year when he was younger. When we got a progress report from the school, they said that some of his other stuff was higher but he was reading at an early third grade level. That got me to look at Sylvan and we bought 50 hours to start out with.

Sylvan has been good so far. My daughter likes them and I do as well. She's doing great things in it and I see the improvement. She was doing reading with them and now she's doing writing. They test her then tell me what the score is, her strength, her weakness, and what they will work on. They're there if I need them. They have an open door policy where we can come in and the parents can be talked to if something needs to be addressed.

I was looking for a better place to put my son to improve his English. I liked the way Sylvan explained their program. I enrolled and we've been with them for a year and a half now. We are seeing great progress in him because he has improved a lot in terms of comprehension.

Our experience with Sylvan has been very good. They help my child with learning the new material the school doesn't cover. They're focusing on Math and English. They're very supportive. They do a monthly meeting with us. They give us updates on how the kids are doing.

Our experience with Sylvan has been great. My child's really responding to their approach and their technique. She loves to go. It's working for us. Others should give it a try.

Sylvan offers a variety of different choices and teaches everything for all ages. They're excellent. My daughter was able to go to the fourth grade because of them. In January, the school told me, “If we don't do something, she's not gonna pass.” That was when I enrolled her in Sylvan. They said, "We're gonna do our best to make her catch up." She pushed and they pushed with her. She did great and passed. I'm very pleased. My daughter loves Sylvan. She finds it fun. I speak with Ben and Erin and they respond promptly. Any time my daughter was sick or had to call out, they were good with filling her in so that I could do make-ups. They've been good on communications and tell me how she's been doing.

My daughter was getting extra education with a program they have at school but I did not see progress. Prior to Covid, she was struggling in Math and Reading and remote learning increased the gap in her education. On top of that, I divorced her father so that meant that she had an inconsistent nightly routine. She is 13 so she doesn’t like anything but she likes the tutor that she works with at Sylvan. She has limited availability but she is the only Math tutor in the center that I take my daughter to. I would recommend the program because I see that in some areas, it’s working. However, my child is resistant so I would not negatively impact Sylvan based on my daughter's responses.

Our experience with Sylvan has been going great. My child loves it. The tutor is great with her. She is the best. She's doing really well with her. And Ariel loves her, too. Ariel is more active and she likes to move around a lot. She's good with getting her grounded and sitting down and doing her work.

Initially, the focus of Sylvan was on reading and writing because my son was a bit behind on his reading level. But since then, we've incorporated math because he's growing up a little bit later and sometimes, he's a little bit behind. He's improved greatly. He's definitely already caught up to his grade level and he's still reading every day without any issues. Sylvan definitely helped overall. He also enjoys going over there. We used to go four times a week. But they cut it back down to two because he was progressing so well. It was a very positive experience. I would recommend them to anybody who needs help with their children in terms of development.

Sylvan changed owners midway through and I wasn't pleased too much about that, but the experience has been good. I like that they are organized. My son is getting the Math tutoring and he's been with them in grade 4th and 5th.

My child started with reading at Sylvan and she has improved tremendously with the reading to where we could focus on math. And now math is caught up as well and she's more confident in her studies. Sylvan has been awesome. If I have any questions, they're always answered. And they work with our schedules. The price is also what I expected for the service that we get.

I'm glad that I took my son to Sylvan. He has a new excitement about reading and he's improving. He masters 15 skills every month. They said they'd like to see 10 skills mastered and he has exceeded that. They do monthly meetings with the parents and we go over the present levels and what they're going to work on. They ask for any suggestions as well. They offered for him to work with a certain tutor but he doesn't mind with working with multiple ones. He likes all of them. I'm proud and appreciative of the staff. They're friendly at the Greenville location. If you wanna see success and academic achievements, take your child to Sylvan. They have an effective and a welcoming environment. It is pricey but it's worth it. They offer affordable payments for people and I like that part of it.

Sylvan is one of the very few that has a tutor who's reliable. The manager talked me through the program, who would be tutoring for chemistry and the days and times. It was a good fit for my daughter who's taking a UDub chemistry course. Enrolling with Sylvan was extremely easy. They're thorough, very communicative and clear as far as what the expectations were from their end and our end. They're very good about emailing, especially if the tutor, all of a sudden, has to cancel for some reason. Sylvan Learning is a good place. We've had a great experience because of the people we've worked with. Our son had gone to Mathnasium and I was thinking if he ever needs help again, we might have him go to Sylvan because their prices are a lot more reasonable there.

My daughter had used Sylvan 12 years ago, and I have two smaller children now, so I figured, “Let me go back to them and see.” I had a very good, positive experience 12 years ago. This time, one child does reading, and the other child does math. They have improved drastically and their confidence has been built because they're more comfortable with the subject. My daughter's already reading and my son feels more knowledgeable and comfortable doing the mathematical equations. They're very happy in Sylvan. They enjoy it very much. It's a very encouraging and comfortable environment to learn. I wish I could bring them a little bit more, but my work schedule doesn't allow it. Sylvan's customer service team is always welcoming. They've been great from day one. They're all very professional.

Sylvan is great and I would recommend them. My son has shown a lot of growth in reading and math. He was on a low level and he improved that within a short time.

Our experience with Sylvan has been great. I looked at some other ones and I felt like they were more hands-on and private with the child. The coordinator where my daughter goes is marvelous and excellent.

Our experience with Sylvan has been good. My daughter feels she's progressed a little bit since she's been there. She's been struggling with math. She's been doing a lot better than she was at the beginning of the school year. I like the vibe of the director of the specific one we go to. She seemed nice. I had an appointment to go check out another place. I just never made it to the appointment. Once my daughter started at Sylvan, she just said she liked it. So I kept her there. Right away, I asked her, "How was the teacher? Were they nice? Did they have good energy? Were they patient?" And there's never been anything negative said.

I like Sylvan because they do everything on-site. There's no homework. They don't take anything home to work at home. And my son has trouble working at home. So ever since he started going to Sylvan, he's improved dramatically. His test scores have gone up. But in the beginning, I had trouble with him going inside, and they would come out and talk to him and encourage him to go in. Then they would encourage him to tell me what he did that day in a positive way. I also get a call from the director to let me know where he's at or if he's moved forward to the next level.

My youngest son went to Sylvan from the fourth to the sixth grade and now, I have my great granddaughter with them. I felt that it would be beneficial for her because I know how they work. They give me updates and let me know how she's doing and she's doing good. They call to get my opinion on what I think and how the process is going. She seems to be doing well and they keep me posted as to what they see in her and dealing with her on a one-on-one. I'm very pleased with that.

We're happy with the way our daughter has been learning at Sylvan. She has improved a lot in her tutoring. I thought she was gonna be exhausted and tired of learning, but no. She interacts and doesn't get bored. She loves it.

I went to Sylvan back in the 80s and now my daughter goes there. The cost is rather high but it's good stuff. It's helped her improve her grades. It's doing what it's supposed to be doing. There's very good communication from the person who runs the place. My daughter is 16 and she didn't go a couple of times. The lady was right on it. She called me and let me know.

My kids are very happy with Sylvan. They like to go there. The tutors are great. The Sylvan staff went over where we started, where we're at, and where we need to be. Sylvan is a nice place to go to. Our experience has all been pleasant.

My son is doing Biology, Math and English at Sylvan. We took a tour of the place and the manager was amazing. She really sold us on it and it was really what we were looking for for our son. We were focusing on our son's missing assignments. So, it became like a dedicated time where he could get these done and get them turned in. We've really seen an increase in assignments that have been turned in since then. Sylvan is a little pricey, but it's worth it. I like that they'll tailor the program to their students. My son needed help with turning things in, but if another child was struggling with concept, they have tutors right there to do that. They're really willing to help do whatever the kids need.

Sylvan's staff is very great. They work with you. I like how accommodating they are, how easy to change the schedule, and they're open and honest with the pricing. Sylvan got back with me the quickest regarding my tutoring and when I talked to the director and another individual there, they gave me a lot of information that I was looking for and answered all my questions. I did ask a question about gentrification versus young folks tutoring the kids versus older folks. They were very honest and open and said that most of their crowd were older, which I prefer versus younger folks. Their attention focus is not really that great when you go with other tutoring resources. I like working with veteran teachers. They did explain to me that most of their staff is either retired or active teachers, and most of them were middle age.

We live in Ohio and Ohio offered an ACE scholarship. It's for afterschool programs and enrichment after COVID to get children tutoring, music lessons -- things they had missed while they were doing online school. Sylvan was one of the providers and we chose to use our scholarship for that. My child has done about 25 hours of tutoring and he's mastered 20 lessons. He's doing great and he likes the learning experience. He looks forward to it every week and he has a tutor that he really likes. He does it online so he can sit up in his room and he doesn't complain about it. When our scholarship runs out, we plan on continuing the program and paying for it ourselves because it is a good and valuable program.

Sylvan Learning has been great, and I like the tutors. They're good.

I wish Sylvan Learning was not as expensive, but that's the price of tutoring. Bianca, the person from there, has been great, and the tutors have been really good people that my daughter can look up to 'cause they mostly have been students. The first time we went was to help her get adjusted to math in middle school. The second time was when she was struggling, which was her second year in middle school.

So far, Sylvan has been good. We've only been there maybe about a month and a half. We went there because of my daughter's standardized testing scores with reading. I did check out another local competitor but I didn't like the feel of how they do things. I used Sylvan myself as a kid so know what they're about and how they work, so I had something to go on. I love it. They're doing a great job. We're seeing improvement and I'm hoping that it continues that way. I love the team there. I love the center manager there. I love the other two that work with the teachers. They have been really great. Their flexibility is wonderful. They've worked around my daughter's school activities.

Sylvan's customer service is great. Every time I reach out, I end up getting to talk to the owner himself. My child is doing Math. Whatever program that they have set up there, she's able to really understand the way that they teach her.

I've worked with Sylvan Learning Centers for over 12 years. They do what they're supposed to do, which is a great tutoring program. They deliver what they say. We're happy with them.

They focus on reading and writing with my child and there seems to be some improvements. It's been a really positive experience.

We were really apprehensive about Sylvan but a friend of mine had a large credit and they allowed her to transfer it to me. I was able to afford to have my 8th grader evaluated. He was reading like a kindergarten level or below, which I knew and I was telling the school, but the school was like, "Oh, he's fine. Just keep pushing him forward." Sylvan was very honest and they were very delicate about the way they delivered the information.

We are having an amazing experience with Sylvan and we're seeing a lot of improvement on my son because of them. His grades have gone one up. Also, they're very clear on communication and they're always there to answer questions. They do monthly reviews and they're very thorough.

It's working pretty well with Sylvan and my daughter enjoys going. Also, when I have to leave messages, they call me right back. The only complaint I would have is it's pretty pricey. But whatever is gonna help my daughter is gonna help.

Since Sylvan, my kids got a lot better with math specifically. Their grades went up.

My daughter went to Sylvan and she really liked the people there. Their team seemed to be knowledgeable. Most recently, my son also liked the people there. They had a strong curriculum and our kids had positive relationships with the people there. With my daughter, it was during the pandemic. We were making sure that she was not falling behind since they were doing remote learning. She did phenomenally well. Now, her reading scores are way ahead of those in her grade level. For my son, the same. We just wanted to be sure that he had a strong reading foundation. We feel like that was what happened. He's doing great at reading. He's ahead of his peers. We thought it was a good investment. The tutors were excellent, very personable and knowledgeable, too. They're young, but my kids really enjoy going back. If there were any concerns, they would address those with us.

So far, our experience with Sylvan has been great. They've been helping my daughter. She gets a lot of one-on-one help. She's a full-time student there. I took her out of school and put her in full-time. When she would come home, she would talk about what she learned. She never did that when she was in regular school. She seems to be obtaining some sort of knowledge. I get a little bit of a discount because she has an IEP. But the cost isn't that bad.

Since ding Sylvan, my child is more confident in doing her math now and she's not afraid to ask questions. The customer service is excellent. They take their time and explain things to you. I enjoy my child going there. And they were willing to work with our schedules, too.

I initially went local with a local teacher, but she couldn't accommodate our needs. So we went to a larger facility. Sylvan is one of the few in the area. They're focusing on reading and writing with my child. We've been there for six weeks now. We just had a meeting with his teacher, on Friday, and he is doing 100 times better.

They started with math with my child, and now they're working on the SAT. I like that it is individualized and they advocate for my child's needs. Definitely, the grade has increased and her confidence has increased. She doesn't feel ashamed to go and ask for help, which was a big issue before. Their cost is also the best that I could find and I'm satisfied. It was worth it. And they have different options as well. Their customer service is excellent, too. I can text, call or email, and someone will be right back to address any concerns I have.

The reps at Sylvan are very good. They do a good job greeting the children as they walk in. My child likes going. He's working on first-grade reading and writing.

I like Sylvan better compared to our previous tutoring option. It appears that whatever system that Sylvan is utilizing is more effective for my son than the other. They're focusing on reading and writing and he has improved tremendously with his English grade in middle school. The customer service is amazing as well. Any time that I reach out to Sylvan to reschedule or to get a progress report or anything in nature of my son, it's done. I receive communication from them timely. The call is within a day, at most two days. They're really good about corresponding. The price is okay, too. But I would rather there would be some type of discounts or incentives offered for participants or customers who have been utilizing the tutoring services for a long period of time.

When my son started coming to Sylvan I was desperate. He was reading way below grade level and his confidence was lacking. Almost a year later and he is a changed boy. He is reading well above grade level and now we just started him on math. Ms ** is his tutor and she is so patient and her experience with kids with special needs shines through. I am so grateful that she has taken such good care of my boy and is truly committed to his success. Thank you sylvan and thank you Ms. **.

I spoke to Miriam at Sylvan and I let her know that they've done an excellent job with my child. We got him in a higher level than when we brought him in, so I was very grateful at all the efforts, services, and check-ins that Miriam did with us. She's really thorough and followed through. At the beginning, the tutoring focused on Math and English. But now, it's more English comprehension and we're moving on to writing.

I recommend Sylvan Learning Centers because I checked the other learning places in the area and I felt my son would be better off in Sylvan. My son likes it. He's happy. He likes the teachers. They're nice. They're after the safety of my son. They take him out to the parking lot where I wait and they take time to help my son with his assignment, which is nice, and they're patient. When I have a concern like about Liam's grades in the school, Steve is accommodating to talk about it. Sylvan has its own process, but they tried to accommodate what my son's needs are. We are gonna go for next semester. We're gonna continue on because it helps him with his grades.

I've been with Sylvan Learning for a long time now. We've seen three different directors when Tori first got tested. When she first got tested, she was doing the first and second grade level with reading and math. The first year, it was like sketchy towards me because I really didn't understand the grasp of all I'm paying this money. Then it was so hard for me to keep up with the rescheduling. So, I missed a lot of days. I backed off with them then, but then, we came back. Tori has been back for a year and a half now. Working with Miss Carol and Miss Courtney has been absolutely amazing. They adore Tori. Tori has confidence now. Sometimes, she still shuts down but as far as having the confidence that she has with doing work on some things by herself, it's amazing to see. I love the way that they try to make her be more independent with doing her work. So all around, I pay a lot of money every month but my money is well spent.

My children’s focus is mostly on Reading but there is some Math involved as well. They’re still working on the grades. It's still fresh, so it's too soon to tell. One of my kids' grades has gone down but there are more factors than just the learning. I ask the tutors how my children do and they show me how they do for the day. But if there's a hiccup, they let me know about that.

Sylvan said that they could get the kid up a grade level and they were able to do that. My child's been able to write better and he's excited to go. Their staff has also been super nice. The price is a little steep. But it's worth it.

My son is doing very well with Sylvan, but it's sometimes difficult to schedule make-up appointments. Sometimes they get confused between the scheduled appointments and the make-up appointments. I have to reiterate to 300 people that, “No. This is the schedule. This appointment was given to me by somebody. And it's for a make-up.” The schedule has to be a little bit more cohesive. The learning environment is fine. But I would like it to be a smaller ratio.

We started with Sylvan Learning in January, and so far, my grandson loves it. He's improved some. The reps also tell me things. If I'm there dropping off my grandson, they'll talk to me, then they text me. They've called me, and we set up meetings and go over everything. They're really good about all that. If somebody asked, "What do you think about Sylvan?" I would say, "So far, it's been wonderful. I can't say anything bad about it whatsoever." They go above and beyond with being nice and understanding. If I had a few questions, they were always there to listen and they were right on top of it.

It's been a great experience with Sylvan Learning. Carrie is the executive director, and she's been very supportive. Sylvan Learning is more hands-on and they're very flexible with my kid's schedule. My son likes them. He's improved really fast.

I would recommend Sylvan. They helped my children in staying focused on being able to do their homework on time. We've recently stopped going because their grades are improving.

My son's in first grade, and he's doing mathematics and reading with Sylvan Learning. The scheduling is great. Sometimes he misses a lot of the weekend because either he doesn't want to or he's tired. They are always willing to reschedule if they have an availability during the week. I have seen a significant improvement in my son. He's very good at math, and he's now reading, which he wasn't doing before he went there.

Sylvan Learning was very friendly and nice. So, I went with them. It is good service. The owner answered any questions. And if I canceled a session, she was on top of it. My son struggles still, but he is getting more confident in his work. Sylvan Learning does not only help your child but also offer different things to help financially pay for the session.

I gave over $3,000 down to Sylvan Learning Centers for my son to have 65 sessions. And it was fine. I was very pleased. However, I could never get ahold of the office directly. Every time I would try to call, it would always direct me to the regular internet number. So, they were, "You should have the direct office number." But I got it. But they would not always get my call. It was hard for me to be able to talk to anybody. They would always have to call me back because the phone lines wouldn't allow for us parents to call directly into the office.

My daughter is an athlete. So, if we needed to cancel something, Sylvan Learning Centers was fine with notice. They were very accommodating. What we paid is worth what we got out of it. It's not cheap. But it's worth the results. My daughter wanted help with her SAT scores. It went up a bit. Sylvan has been very helpful.

We started with Sylvan with tutoring for homework then we ended up doing math as well. My son's math grades are good but we wanted to focus on math for long term. He said it's been easier for him since he's been doing Sylvan. His homework's done much better as far as not having missing assignments. He enjoys going to Sylvan. He doesn't complain at all about it. I would recommend Sylvan. They've been very helpful for what my son needed. The price is a little expensive but it's worth it. We did it during a Black Friday sale.

My child is doing Math and Reading with Sylvan and he's going up on grade levels in a positive way. They are amazing and dedicated. They stay in pretty frequent contact with me and the tutors are professional. My son feels comfortable going there and looks forward to going there.

Sylvan Learning has been great. My son looks forward to going there every week. He loves it, and he's doing great. I've recommended Sylvan Learning to a bunch of people.

Sylvan Learning's customer service is good, but they should lower the price a little. My child went there for reading, spelling, and writing, and he has improved since. He picked up a lot of the skills he was lacking, and he's doing well right now. The goal was achieved.

I am considered a non-traditional college student. I'm 49 now and my ability to solve Math problems is very, very poor. I had to take a quantitative reasoning class, and I knew I would fail without help, but I didn't know where to go for that help because of my age. So I took a chance and I called Sylvan. I spoke to an amazing person named Eddie and he reassured me that there was no such thing as being too old to come to Sylvan for tutoring. He made me feel super comfortable. That very same week, he was able to set me up with my tutor whose name is Marty.

Sylvan is helping my kid with Writing and within the first month, he's improved quite a bit. It's one of the things that even though it's like a continuation of school, he never complains. He goes very happily. He never tells me he doesn't wanna go. So his self-confidence has improved and he sees it, so he enjoys it.

My kids go to the school that's right near Sylvan so it was convenient. I've also heard other people say good stuff about it. My kids right now are saying it's really good. They love it. They like the teachers. They're one-on-one. It's a little pricey for my range, but I do what I gotta do for my kids. I do wish there are grants or stuff that I could apply for.

My daughter enjoys going to Sylvan. She's doing better in school. It's awesome with the teachers having a positive attitude and patience with the children.

I used to go to Sylvan when I was young. So when my son needed tutoring, it was one of my first options because I liked it when I went as a little kid. They've been going over the learning gaps that my son has had to help him progress with his reading and comprehension. My meetings with the guy and the ladies who helped do the assessment testing were pleasant. I like them. They're very helpful. My son is doing better now in the areas that he was having trouble in. He's also enjoying going to Sylvan. He likes being able to learn what they teach him and then he gets prizes at the end of the week when he does good. He's been getting the little award card and he's excited when he comes out.

My oldest did math for a year at Sylvan and caught him up really well. I enrolled my other two kids because I was pleased with how it went with my oldest. They are now doing math and reading. I have seen the reading go a lot better. My other one was doing reading, and he probably didn't need to ‘cause he was already above grade level so I switched him to math. All my kids are happy whenever they know that they have to go there. When I pick them up, they're in a great mood. That's one big reason why we keep going. If they weren't happy, I don't think the results would be there. If they made it difficult for me to bring them there, then we probably would have canceled that a long time ago. Sylvan is nice to the kids and the kids like the incentives that they get. Sylvan is a little expensive but it's worth the money. They're very flexible whenever I need to cancel or move a lesson. It would be great if there were more time slots available though.

My son has been doing great at Sylvan. He likes Michael, the gentleman who works with the older teams with their problems with their courses. My son's in algebra and we're hoping that this is our last ditch effort to get him to graduate. His tutor's been wonderful. My son doesn't get the I-don't-wanna-go kind of attitude. He drives himself and gets there on time. He's still flunking algebra, but that’s not Sylvan’s fault.

Sylvan Learning Centers was very helpful. My child has done better in school in Math. She needed help as well in Reading and Writing comprehension. But Sylvan didn't go into details with that. I wish they worked with her on other areas that she has problems in school. But try Sylvan out because overall, it does help the kid.

My daughter has the homework support program with Sylvan, and it's been great. They're good about giving tips. It's nice to have that one-on-one interaction to give additional instruction or more detail as far as what is expected on the assignment. It's expensive but the service is good. I love working with Morgan and Michael. Sylvan has been a lifesaver for my daughter on the school year. It has boosted her confidence as far as school work.

I like Sylvan Learning Centers. I see some results. My son is still improving, but still working on it. He enjoys more. Before, he didn't like to go to school. After his normal school, he goes to the tutoring and he would have no complaints. I would recommend Sylvan if it would be the cheaper price. The price is high. But there's nothing we can do.

The learning environment at Sylvan was excellent. They were in tune with my child's needs, just very adapting to him. The cost is a little pricey. But for the return on investment, it's money well spent. I would like to have seen them move at a little bit faster pace with him, though. He would tend to get a little bit bored with some of the repetitiveness. Just picking up the pace a little would have helped. But the staff was wonderful and they were very accommodating.

I pay for the lessons at Sylvan Learning Centers. They're lovely people that genuinely care about the kids. They are very hands-on, concerned about the kids, work with their individual needs. My granddaughter goes there and she makes nice progress. Her parents are thrilled with her progress. Sylvan has a structured program, but they went outside of it for her. And I'm sure for any of the other kids that had lapses and gaps in learning during the pandemic when everything was shut down.

I put my youngest son in Sylvan years ago to catch up on Reading and they were great. So, I decided to give it a try with my grandson. He couldn’t read before. He’s only five and will go to Kindergarten in the Fall. I wanted to give him the best leg-up so that he would not be behind and that he would learn phonics correctly. It's a good thing to do. The learning experience has been wonderful. He loves going and we call it Reading school. Sylvan is 100% in my book. I wish I could send him to school there all day long instead of the Anchorage School District.

Sylvan is moderately expensive but is a great fair market value for the quality of the service as well as its competitors. The first focus for my child was Reading and the second was Math. Then the most recent that we're still finishing is Writing and Writing Comprehension. The improvement was dramatic in all three. My child thrives better in that environment than he ever could at school. Sylvan is a confidence builder on top of the academic building. The only complaint that I have is that we have to have at least two one-hour sessions a week.

I like that Sylvan analyzed where your child was at and went up. We're not there for remedial learning. My daughter's doing above her grade level. She’s a Sylvan child. The pricing is a little high though. Also, I'd like to see more evaluations done. She was evaluated when she came in, but we haven't been evaluated since. Maybe it's because she's not remedial catching up, she's just going above.

I've seen growth in my child since starting with Sylvan. He now reads, which he didn't do with either of the other two programs he did. He is a little bit more careful about what he's doing and he's getting better at using correct spelling. The learning environment is good. They had to make accommodations once he had some testing done and found he had an auditory processing disorder. They were able to make those accommodations, putting him in a separate room versus the large room that had multiple people. Because he does not filter out background noises. So he needed a more quiet environment for learning.

I am very pleased with Sylvan. Whenever I've called to schedule an appointment, even if 90% of the time, it’s last minute, they've always 90% of the time were able to fit me in. I've had a wonderful experience with them. I'm very happy we did it. The math tutor, John, has been an excellent fit for my daughter. Sylvan's reputation precedes them. If my daughter was not happy there, I would have pulled her. She's been going there since ninth grade. She's worked with the same tutor since then, and it has been a great experience. She's a senior now. She's always been an avid learner, but Sylvan has helped transition her in her math subjects. I would highly recommend Sylvan.

I like Sylvan. I used to take my kid to Kumon, but I didn't like the way they teach there. Sylvan is one-to-one. This way, the kids will learn more quicker than giving homework, and not enforcing. If they don't know how to do the homework, they cannot do the homework. I don't like that kind of learning pattern. I like the Sylvan system because they sit down with the kids. I see that as advantage for my kids. One of my children takes math and reading. The second one just started and she's only writing for now because her reading level is very good. Their tutors help them. I like them. The only thing is Sylvan is a little bit expensive comparing to other schools. Other than that, the teaching system is very helpful.

It's really convenient that Sylvan Learning is a close and well-recommended service that I was able to go with. At first, I was there for my SAT prep and they helped knowing my timing for it, being able to read through the passages properly and being able to understand problems in the math section. Then I had some extra hours, so I went to homework help and they helped me with my calculus. For calculus, they helped me to understand all the tricks and tips to getting the correct answers and all the trigonometry behind it. It was mostly college level classes and they were able to help me tremendously.

I love Sylvan Learning and my daughter loves it too. They've improved her significantly. She's a different kid, even with her behavior. She has ADHD, and she's calmer. Before Sylvan, in regular public school, she wasn't interested in learning. But with Sylvan, she's ready. They're amazing people. They always keep me updated. We communicate through their reminder app. They always call me or we have meetings about her progress and how she's doing, or if she's misbehaving. If anybody's kid is having difficulties in any area with their education, Sylvan Learning is the way to go. The cost is reasonable and it's money back guarantee. By me being on a fixed income, I can afford it.

Anaya's grades have improved dramatically. She's understanding more in geometry since she's been going to Sylvan.

We looked at a couple different tutoring options and they were all pretty reputable but it seemed that it was a little bit easier with Sylvan because they do online too. My daughter has been enrolled for almost three years now and she's almost caught up to her grade. They've come a long way with her and she's come a long way with them. She does a lot more and focuses a lot more in school and my son who's starting out in school does too. Sylvan is a good way to catch your kids up in school. Their financing services are not as good, though, because they use a third party.

We've been extraordinarily happy with Sylvan. My daughter was feeling less confident about mathematics so I've been having Sylvan work more with that with her. My son is struggling with physical writing and also organizing and composing his thoughts so I've had them working with him with reading. They have done a wonderful job working with him. I wish they did more physical writing with him but their program doesn't focus as much on that. But over time, we've built stronger relationships. We feel almost a devotion to Sylvan now. They've become a part of our growing up landscape. The kids rely on their social connections there as much as their learning support. Their confidence has been bolstered by the small group learning setting, specialized focus, and also the incentives that they offer.

Our son took the SAT once, but we didn't expect it to go very well, and it didn't. He's gonna take it again in June and we needed tutoring for SAT prep for him. Sylvan Learning's service has been quite good. They're very personal and doing well for themselves. They're very well-attached. They're following up and ahead of us in terms of keeping up the communications. We've recommended them and signed up six other families.

Sylvan Learning has been great. They've been flexible, understanding and helping the students as best they can. They use a software on the iPad, and they've been very helpful and mindful. They've been educating our daughter and I don't see any issues with it.

We use Sylvan for Math for two children and they’ve brought their grades up from C to B. We appreciate them. They are a little pricier than just a tutor outside but it's okay. My great-nieces love Sylvan and their teacher helping them through problem-solving and making them feel important and listened to. One of them said that her teacher told her in school that he would explain and she should listen. We have a definite problem, which is the reason I put them in Sylvan.

We've used Sylvan for my grandson for quite a few years now and we've had a good experience. He only goes once a week now but he was going at one point for three days a week for a couple of hours a night. The only thing that I'm seeing that would be a little bit negative is the change in employees. But I've got businesses and I know what it's like because it's everywhere right now. It seems like nobody wants to work. But other than that, we've been happy with Sylvan. It's been good for him and I would recommend it.

My son goes to Sylvan for second grade Reading and Writing and I can see the progress in him. They're very organized and they go through the schedule. Also, they have a very good communication and they're always texting for the confirmations. We're very happy with them.

We're absolutely happy with Sylvan. My son was going for Reading at first and then we put him on the Math program and he's really doing good. His tests are looking better at school and he enjoys the program. He's in the special ed class at school and they haven't done anything for him but Sylvan has helped so much and I'm gonna continue going to them until he's caught up to his grade. I wish he could go there full-time for school but it's expensive and right now, we can only do two times a week. In the summer, we're gonna do three times a week.

I went over what the program was about with their rep and then they tested my son to see where he was. Based on his results, they recommended what type of tutoring he needed and gave us the payment plan. I enrolled him and he's been in the program for about two months. His grades went up and he doesn't struggle as much in the reading area. It makes me feel better about his education. Also, communication is very good. I would recommend Sylvan because it really helped my son.

It's all been good with Sylvan so far. They're working on reading with my child and she's only been there a couple months and it seems to help her quite a bit.

My granddaughter was having difficulties with Advanced Algebra. She is in an advanced college math class as part of her high school, and she was failing, and now she's maintaining a B average. She's enjoying the sessions with Sylvan. She's learning from the sessions. It's helping her make connections that she did not have before. Sylvan has been great. It was a little bumpy because we're doing this remotely, initially, but after that, it's been completely smooth.

Our experience with Sylvan has been great. They've been very helpful. Any questions I have, they also answer me right away. They're helping my child in reading comprehension and now I'm seeing an improvement in my son's reading comprehension skills. Hopefully, he'll continue to grow and get on the level that he needs to be on.

My child likes doing Sylvan more than her homework at home with me. She's in fifth grade with a second-grade math level when she went in there. Now the teacher claims that she has improved. They also have great staff and very helpful, too.

They're the best. My baby's grades went up. When he started tutoring, a month later, they texted him and that was when he got skipped up to the next grade. Before that, he was at grade level just enough to be where he was at. I love them. He loves Sylvan too. He gets upset if he has to miss a day. They have great customer service. They answer questions and they are on time, as well.

The enrollment process at Sylvan was very easy. I also like that they work with the kids' school. Whatever the kids' teachers say that they need help in, that's what they're doing. Sometimes they might be understaffed, but everybody in the world is understaffed. I've had a couple of concerns and they listen. They also take the initiative to fix the concerns that I have, which I like. It's also very convenient because they have a lot of different time slots. It can work with anybody's schedule. The teachers are also very kind.

My oldest child, who's at the university, and my second daughter, were with Sylvan for years. And now, my youngest son is with Sylvan too. He's been there for three months. My son is struggling with Math, which is why I have him there. He is improving but not as much as I want. The problem that he has usually is with the tests, which is why he can't improve enough. But the tutors help him with the homework reviews. He likes the class and says the tutors are good. They know what they’re teaching.

I really like Sylvan. My baby only got approved for $3,000 to go, though, and I think he needs more time, so that's the only issue that I'm having right now. But they're good. Prior to using Sylvan, my baby went to pre-K, but he's struggling in kindergarten. Now my baby is doing better and he enjoys going. He's doing better with the one-on-one. They're also sweet. There have been times I've had to cancel the session, and they were always helpful.

Recently, we got reconnected with Sylvan for the benefit of my daughter. She's in 5th grade. Presently, we're using it for math, but we have used it for reading. Sylvan is providing a resource to students who have been affected by the shutdown from COVID. So, it's a Herculean effort because these students were taken out of a productive learning environment at a time when their learning and momentum towards their own academic growth was stunted by the shutdown. So, I see growth and development, and Sylvan is doing a terrific job. Sylvan's charge is large, but the supplemental support they're providing students is wonderful. It's necessary.

My daughter loves Sylvan. She did well in school but she was struggling with reading, and that was primarily the reason we took her to Sylvan. And compared to when she started, she went from struggling in reading to being one of the top students in her class. The staff at Sylvan are all incredibly nice and very encouraging to Bella, my daughter, and we love it. We will continue, and probably have her there over the summer, and try to get her ahead in school as well. They're great people to deal with. I would recommend Sylvan every time. It's a little expensive upfront, but it's worth the money that they charge. They're very hospitable.

Sylvan is great. I like the fact that my child is progressing. She started going back in November. She's in the eighth grade and it is for Math. She's definitely showing that she's starting to grasp the information, not as quickly, but she is grasping the information. The communication is great, too. Anything that they need to relay to me regarding my child, I know. They also send out those reports showing where she's at currently and on the days that she goes, they send home something showing what she has worked on and how she's doing on it.

My son goes to private school and he gets most of his help there but he asked to go to something outside of school to help him enhance his reading skills and to boost his scores on the upcoming SATs next year. Sylvan focused on his Math and English and his reading skills doubled based on their test. My son used them for about three months but we'll probably use them again as he approaches his junior year of high school. The reps are very friendly, accessible, easy to get in touch with and work with you. So, I'm happy with them. People should consider Sylvan. It seems to be helpful and they offer a lot of different programs. So it's not just strictly for ACTs and SATs. There are other options. It’s a personalized, one-on-one tutoring and they also have reading classes to help boost skills in Reading and Comprehension. So, there's a lot for people to use there.

I take my niece to Sylvan Learning Center and she's done better in school since going there. She started with English and now, she's doing Math. They've been very good. I meet with them monthly. If anything else comes up, they'll text me. However, it's pricey.

My kiddos needed a little help with school, getting caught up and gaining confidence, and Sylvan was the first place that came to mind. I worked with Sarah in Encinitas and she made the whole enrollment process so easy. My older son is working on his math skills and we were having a conversation the other day about if he feels like it's helpful and it really is. I noticed him being more confident in what he is doing and on his last test, he got a higher grade. The small instruction style that they have really is working for him. With my youngest, they're working on his reading skills and those are getting better. Also, their rep, Kim, has been great and communicative with me about anything -- any time anything has come up and any phone calls that I've made. The teachers are great and everyone I've interacted with has been wonderful.

They're focusing on reading and they’re assisting very well because I have no complaints and everything is fine. I'm very pleased. My five-year-old gained her confidence and she now enjoys reading and decoding words, so everything is awesome.

Two of my boys went to Sylvan for reading and math and we liked it just fine. I saw progress and the kids enjoy the people there. The cost is a little bit high, but the quality is high too. You get what you pay for.

The first time we used Sylvan was 20 years ago for one of my children and they did exceptionally well. We're using it for one of our grandchildren now and they're doing a great job. She's trying to get her grades up because she failed her classes last year and she's learning and she's enjoying the learning. I'm very happy with Sylvan.

I explained the situation to Sylvan that my daughter was having. They gave her an assessment. So she had to take a test with math and reading. Once you take the test, they give you a summary of things that you need to focus on and things that you didn't do well in. Before my daughter started with Sylvan, she was below her reading level. So that was the main focus. Then she was up to speed pretty fast and got to the grade level. Now she goes to Sylvan just for help. She loves it. She really likes school and learning. If they do well on the test or assignment, they get tokens after the session and then they could buy stuff where they get gift cards. Sylvan was really helpful. They're very accommodating, so they'll try to fit you in even last minute. They're also very communicative.

I went to Sylvan as an adult and I got the help that I needed in Chemistry. Eric helped me out a lot and walked me through everything in chemistry and eventually, I passed my class. Then, I came back because my daughter's 10 and she needs help. We got her in really quickly and she loves it. She gets so much confidence from going there and earning tokens. She's doing Math and Reading and her grades are growing up. Also, the tutor, Brenda, texts me any time she needs anything and we do meetings once or twice a month. The communication is really good and they go above and beyond. The cost is a little high but it's doable and the quality is good for the amount that I pay.

My daughter was so far behind with COVID and missing classes. Sylvan has made a world of difference for her. She has done great. She first started with reading, and now she's into the math. She is doing so much better at school now. She loves going to Sylvan. Bret and Marissa at the Wake Forest branch are always very helpful and friendly. They send out little monthly updates and then they'll call and check to see how she's doing in school with Banks. So it's a great program. I would highly recommend it to anybody. It's a small class, so they can get more one on one, and that has improved her drastically.

The tutor is nice, friendly, pleasant, and understanding. My daughter is a more strong, independent reader since she's been going to Sylvan. Her teachers also see it in her as well. She loves going to the classes as well. She's excited that she gets treats and snacks. If your little kid is struggling, Sylvan will touch base on every grade level. So from kindergarten, if she could have missed something, which with her, it was the three sounds of the letter A that she missed. So that was a good thing that we found out, which improved in her reading. It's expensive, but it works out in the end. My daughter is reading at her level in school now, so I'm just excited. Sylvan did amazing. They are really understanding and patient with my child. She says nice things about all the ladies in there. She likes working with all the ladies in there, so that made me comfortable as well.

I needed a reading eval for my daughter and Sylvan offered it. I have three children in the program since December. They progress differently. So they learn differently. But they are all progressing. Sylvan's customer service is good. They answer all my questions that I have and set regular meetings. I would recommend them. I'm happy with the experience. But it's not accessible to everybody because of how expensive it is. It would be a little bit more accessible to me if it was a little bit cheaper. But I'm doing what I can do.

The lady that I spoke to was extremely nice, understanding, and walked me through the process. When I went in for the meeting, the director was beyond amazing and totally understood what I needed to happen with my son. They are constantly letting me know his progress and things that we need to tweak. We usually are in contact if there's any issues that arise. Sylvan is great. It's been helping with my child. Since my son doesn't fight me and we don't have arguments about him going to Sylvan, he absolutely likes it and he thinks it's helping him.

My son’s Reading and Math have improved. The tutors sit down, take their time and help my son. The communication is great. He and the tutors talk, and I and the head lady talk as well. Sylvan is a great site and I enjoy having my son there. He runs in there and runs out happy all the time. So, I like it. It’s awesome.

My grandson needed a little extra help through school and he has excelled so much from the time he started Sylvan up until today and he loves it. It’s fun for him and puts the icing on the cake when he can get his points and a reward after each tutoring course. He’s in first grade and they're tutoring him on Reading and Comprehension. I asked them also to work with him on Writing. The teachers are patient and it’s an amazing place. I'm happy that I found Sylvan. It’s expensive but everything is expensive. It’s worth the money. If it wasn’t, I wouldn't be sending him.

Sylvan's been a great value. We like it. They're willing to work with me with my son's busy schedule. I like the flexible hours. Customer service is really good. When I did a little inquiry, they got back with me quickly by email and phone call and explained everything well. I told them my needs. I wanted a certain type of tutoring where they would do majority of it. They helped improve my son's vocabulary and being able to read the text, the story, and answer the questions.

They focus on Math and English with my daughter and it has been absolutely amazing. She went from getting Ds to As. She's doing so much better and she is more engaged and confident. Also, she loves quite a few of her tutors. Most of them that I've heard of or she's talked about are very engaging, same with the ladies that run the office.

We love Sylvan. My daughter does a good job and she enjoys going there. When I was a child, I went there too. They help her in Math and Reading. She enjoys her instructors, as well.

It's been a few months since my son enrolled into Sylvan Learning's reading program, and it's been going on well so far. I receive a monthly email about what my son is doing. They also send out newsletters on what's happening in the center, if there are any activities. My son started in October and he mentioned that he is able to read words and practice through an app in their iPad. They also do some games and give some points, then the kids are rewarded by the points that they accumulate.

Sylvan's facility was clean and easy to get to. My son was with other students, so that didn't make him feel like he was being isolated. The director was always there when I had any concerns. Any time I texted her, had a question about anything or had to change my son's schedule, she was nice and cooperative. She was willing to help me. We met one time to discuss my son's progress. So, I noticed an improvement the time that he attended. It's expensive, but so is everything nowadays.

The tutor helped my child very well with Reading and did everything they needed to do. I'd recommend Sylvan.

I use the Ohio ACE funding and it was easy to work with Sylvan on that. It was my first time using any tutoring services and I would recommend them but I'm not going back there because it's very important that they reach out to let me know how my son did. I'm disappointed that after my child's last session, nobody has called or emailed to give me an update on how he progressed. My son always comes back and says they did a lot of rhyming words. So, they were supposed to work with him on reading. At the same time he was at Sylvan, I was also doing a lot of reading with him at home. But I see some differences. He's reading a lot better now. Sylvan is a great tutoring service but I don't like how they don't follow up on stuff. I'll tell them to go.

My child is very happy and gets along with the tutors, and they're eager to teach him as well. They're interested in the learning of the kids that go to Sylvan. My child hasn’t been there long but I‘ve seen improvements. Sylvan is expensive but it’s comparable with other tutors. I would like to pay less than what I'm paying but that's across the board.

My daughter is doing Geometry at Sylvan Learning. She gets the concept of geometry now. She loves geometry more. Our experience has been wonderful. Sylvan is the best place for your child to be tutored. They're friendly. The kids catch on easily and quickly.
