Academic Writing Success!

"Hello my Sylvan family. I was in the academic writing program. I successfully completed it and wanted to thank all of my instructors because now my English teachers are preparing us for the SATs, therefore we are writing many essays and thanks to you awesome people it is a breeze. This year I am taking AP US History and the essays there mature and take a lot of planning and I am doing well with that aspect of class. Thank you, Ms. Kelly, Ms. Anita, Ms. Melissa, Ms. Kathleen, Mr. Jesse, Ms. Mindi, Ms. Courtney, Mr. Keith, Ms. Jenny, and Ms. Shannon you all are much appreciated and I will always put out a good word and promote Sylvan. I would love to help in any way possible. Please keep in touch. Sylvan Rocks."

Study Skills as College Preparation

"I just wanted to thank you both for you time and guidance that you provided to our daughter and the whole family while we were at Pikesville Sylvan. Our daughter was there for time management and study skills. We have seen a great improvement in her ability to manage her time, and especially in planning ahead, and her confidence that she can challenge herself to do more. You will be happy to now that she got admission to Johns Hopkins University. She will be starting as a freshman in fall in the school of engineering.

So we than you for all your time and want you to now that both of you and the center were of great help in helping our daughter in gaining confidence and she is doing so much better."

Confidence can mean a lot!

"My son's confidence has increased tremendously! That alone gives me great hope that he will move towards success."

WOW!!!

"My youngest son, Roman (2nd Grade), has definitely benefited from his time at Sylvan. I've noticed an improved attitude towards math homework. He is no longer hesitant to do it and most times gets it right on the first try. I'm very grateful for this program. As a mother, I want the best for all of my children even though I may not be the one to provide it. That's why I'm glad my mother recommended Sylvan to me when I told her that Roman was struggling with math. The directors and educators at Sylvan really know their 'stuff'. And it shows. Now when I ask Roman how his school day went, he says, "Math is so easy... this is first grade stuff." It may sound more like a complaint instead of an endorsement, but to me it screams "Sylvan Works!" Thanks!"

I am glad I choose Sylvan Learning for my child and I really appreciate all the help. I will be recommending Sylvan learning to all of my friends and family."

What Adult Students have to say...

"I was the student, not my child, and it was surprising to see that I could still make improvements in my reading speed and comprehension. I appreciate the staff's willingness to work with an adult student."

What a student had to say after the assessment...

"Before I came today I was not sure if Sylvan could help me but now I feel like I could really learn new things, feel better about myself and do better in school with your help. I hope I can come back soon!"

My Granddaughters teacher called me today!!!!!!

"I recieved a phone call from my granddaughter's school today, I immediately braced myself. Since the beggining of the year I had recieved numerous calls concerning bad grades and bad behaviour as well as a letter stating that my grandaughter was in danger of failing for the year. Imagine my delight when I heard the teacher say "Your granddaughter is doing awesome in Math and I spoke with her English teacher just to see was she making a change in her other class's and she stated that your granddaughter was passing her class" the teacher went on to say that if my granddaughter kept up the good work she would pass the 9th grade!!!! I no longer cringe when I recieve a call from my granddaughters school."

What a change!

""I know that he is still a bit behind in school but truthfully he would not have been able to survive the second grade without the help from Sylvan. I am not sure what has changed, however in the last few months I feel like I have a whole new student in my class.""

Student Success

"I am truly greatful for having gone through the Sylvan "experience" with my son. Your educators have definately taught him well. His confidence in school and at home has soared to great heights. I am so very thankful that a program like this exists. It has helped our family so much."

Sylvan directors meet your needs

"The staff at the Pikesville location are friendly and helpful. I particularly like the fact that they are very positive about the students and are quick to affirm them pointing out their strong areas. This has helped my son to blossom academically and socially."
