Success Stories

Confidence Boost!

"My son loves going to Sylvan - he thinks the people are so nice. He feels so comfortable there and wishes this was his real school. I have seen a huge increase in his confidence and he is reading books on his own now. The token system is a great idea for rewards of hard work. I have already recommended Sylvan to 3 other parents."

- - Pam, mother of Jarrett

Speechless

"We are very pleased with the services we receive and the personalized attention. The results say more than words can. Truly feels like a partnership – both parties sharing a common goal."

- -Deirdre, mother of Andrew

""The staff have been great! Very professional and caring group of people!""

- -Sharyn, mother of Nick

Helping students beyond academics:

"When I first started there was a student who was very quiet and reserved. After a little while, it became obvious that he enjoyed working with me. He was very animated and worked hard at my table. He even started to talk to some of the other students during transition time and draw pictures for us. It was nice to see the impact that my teaching could have."

- - Liz, Sylvan teacher

Thank You Sylvan Staff

"My husband and I would like to thank you and your staff for all the help you have given Nicholas. He did much better on his recent SAT's and has over a 90 average inEnglish this year."

- Gina L., parent

What a Difference!

"Our son had difficulty in 5th and 6th grades in reading/English and math. He completed 15 months of Sylvan's math and reading programs this past August. It was alot of work for him, but he was committed to the program and it worked well for him. His first quarter average in 7th grade was an 86! What a difference in his attitude and confidence! Many thanks to the staff at Sylvan!"

- George S., parent

Words can't describe!

"What a change we see. Words can't express how wonderful it is to see our son read on his own, and not give up because he doesn't know a word. He takes pride now in himself, and to see that self confidence build is terrific! Thank you again."

- Kathy H., parent

They Really Enjoy Learning!

"I always tell people Sylvan was the best money I ever spent in my lifetime! I really truly mean that. Where would I be now, if both of my boys could not read? They are both so successful in school now and they really enjoy learning! I think they have both struggled so getting started that it really inspires them to do their best, now that they know they can!"

- Susan, Mother of Two Sylvan Stars
