"I just wanted to tell you that the SATs went really really well! I actually didn't feel nervous at all and I had time for everything and nothing was crazy hard. (I understood pretty much all the math.) I found my zen, that is for darn sure. Thank you so much for everything; I probably would not have been able to do this without Sylvan!"

"The most imperative gain for my child is that she is learning to like math which has been very difficult for her in the past. Even though she has just started with Sylvan, I can see her confidence developing and I could not be any more pleased. Thank you to all of the teachers and support staff at the Brookline Sylvan Learning Center."

"For my daugther, Sylvan has made her confident, we have seen major improvement in her grades and the way she does her homework. She's not afraid of standing at the board and showing what she knows."

"When Brendan started Sylvan he was in the resource room at school for extra help with all subjects. I have just had his IEP meeting, and the only course that they will be helping him with is grammar/spelling. All others will be in the classroom with his peers. His tests have gone from the 70 range up to the 80s and 90s. Last but far from least, Brendan's confidence level has increased drastically. He now looks forward to school and there is no fighting about homework."

"I continue to be amazed at the change in my daughter's study habits, approach to homework assignments, exam scores, and her grades. The change was evident within 2 weeks of her involvement with Sylvan, and she's been attending for about 7 months now. She looks forward to going, gets herself there, and she's always eager to tell me what she did while at Sylvan. She's really proud of her accomplishments, her grades have greatly improved, and I recommend Sylvan to all my friends who have children struggling with grades. The staff at Sylvan is incredible, my daughter enjoys working with all of them and she looks up to them as mentors, which is really comforting to me as a parent. I look forward to having my daughter attend next year as well."

"My son Aaron loves going to Sylvan. He never complains about having to go. He enjoys learning and he likes all of his teachers. He is gradually improving his grades at school. Sylvan gets an A+ from us so far."

"I was impressed by the initial evaluation. They seemed to recognize my child's strengths and weaknesses pretty accurately. They made her feel that it is possible to become a better student by fine tuning her studying skills. They stressed the importance of taking responsibility for the assignments, note taking and organization. My daugther now believes that she can become a good student. It is not just about your level of intelligence but fine tuning skills that help you become an overall good student. I think they stressed this in a way that related to a teenager and that is not always easy to do. I wish I would have come to the center early in the school year. We are hoping for a strong finish but I think my child could have used this infomation early in the school year. We are looking forward to continue working with the center through out the summer and into next year."

"Sylvan has helped my son reinforce lessons he is getting at school, but doesn't always absorb. For parents, it is great to get such "real time" feedback to chart progress."

"Amy was having a hard time learning to read. Sylvan taught her strategies that enabled her to get to her class level. Now her reading level has surpassed class level and she is one of the top readers in the grade."

"Due to an obvious decline in our son's school performance, we found it necessary to get him some help before matters got worse. Tre was always considered a bright young man with a promising future, but after he endured an accident we noticed a remarkable dive in his school work. My wife and I, having learned of Sylvan Learning Center through a friend, contacted the Brookline office and arranged for a pre-testing. Satisfied with the initial interview and information received about helping our son, we enrolled. The end result was exceptional. Our son is now an honor student in his first year of high school."

She has made great progress over the summer and was very prepared for kindergarten. She is advanced in her class and is looking for new challenges that lay ahead for her."

"Brian was a below average to average student. When he read there was little to no comprehension or retention. Sylvan got him to slow down and taught him strategies to help retain what he read. This has helped with all classes which in turn has brought up all his grades. As for math, there is no stopping him. Sylvan reviewed and reinforced all the basics and now he loves it."
