Success Stories

Success at Sylvan

My daughter's teacher recommended that she be retained in third grade. She attended approximately 55 hours of reading tutoring at Sylvan this summer. We switched schools and she was mistakenly placed in a fourth grade classroom for a week before the school realized their mistake. She was doing well and wanted to stay in the fourth grade class. After a school assessment that she did well on, the new school agreed to keep her in the fourth grade class. I am sure that if she had not attended Sylvan over the summer, she would still be in third grade today.

Learning is fun!

As a mother who homeschools my daughter, I would like to thank Sylvan for working along side of me and giving me the assistance I needed for my fourth-grade daughter. She struggled in school with reading and spelling for many months. She now offers to read and really puts forth an effort on her spelling assignments. We've had to institute a half an hour of reading time before going to bed because she just can't get enough! We have gone from 'I hate school' to 'Learning really is fun, Mom.'
Thanks Sylvan!

Third grader now on Honor Roll

My husband and I were frustrated and out of ideas of how to help our daughter enjoy and savor the learning process. Her grades were deplorable and her self-confidence was lacking. She was just not connecting.

Now about a year later, in third grade, she loves to learn, loves her teacher and has made Honor Roll for the past 2 quarters. I know a large part of her success has been our constant love and encouragement and her developmental growth, but we owe a lot to Sylvan where she likes her instructors and enjoys spending her time. I feel like small concerns are addressed and handled quickly and we work together for the betterment of our daughter. Her grades have improved across the board! Thank you Mitch and the Sylvan instructors!

Son and daughter both benefit from Sylvan

In fifth grade my son was struggling to make a C in math. By the end of the school year he was making As and Bs. Now in seventh grade he is getting As and Bs in an advanced math class. My daughter is in second grade and currently attending Sylvan. When she started she could not even count to 10. Eight months later she is now on grade level for her second grade class. Sylvan has been a great help for both my children.

Third grade success

My daughter is currently enrolled in Sylvan Learning Center. I considered tutoring because I saw she was falling behind in grammar/vocabulary in second grade. We had hired other tutors in the past and they seemed not to be very effective. By the time 3rd grade began, I felt I was running out of time. I met with Mitch at the Carrollwood location and he right away assured me Sylvan could help her. I remember how I felt when he told me he could bring her up to grade level with 100 hours of tutoring. I thought I would never see the end results.

Today, just six months later, my daughter is at grade level. Plus, not only have her grades improved but also her confidence. This school year I will be attending for the first time "The Honors Assembly." She didn’t just barely receive honor roll, but she did just miss Principal’s Honor Roll by a few points. I have also noticed throughout this process, she is not needing my undivided attention while completing her homework. She is definitely not as dependent on me as she was when we began this process.

Her success at Sylvan could not have been more rewarding to us as parents. Mitch’s staff has played such an important roll in this whole process. His staff have all been very comforting for myself as well as for my daughter, So much so that I have chosen not only to continue her tutoring but also enroll my other daughter, just so she can stay on task. I would like to praise Sylvan for their work. I truly believe, if it wasn’t for them we would definitely not be where we are today. As a mother, my daughter’s academic achievements have been so much more rewarding than I had ever thought. My husband and I firmly believe, Sylvan will always be a part of our children’s academic success. Thank you for everything you have done.
