Sylvan Learning Center Offers Free Tutoring Through the Federal NCLB Act.
Sylvan Learning Center is offering free tutoring to eligible students in our area who are struggling in school under the provisions of the federal No Child Left Behind Act. Sylvan Learning Center will be providing these services during the school year. To receive free tutoring services, children must attend a public school that has been designated by the state as needing improvement and they must meet income requirements. Children who receive free or reduced-price lunches usually meet the income requirements for free tutoring.
Eligible families should receive a notice from the school district informing them of the sign-up process. Parents then choose a tutoring service, such as Sylvan Learning Center, listed on the application. Please call our center to see if your school and child qualify.
TEN GREAT REASONS TO CHOOSE SYLVAN
1. Sylvan has been the leading provider of supplemental education for over twenty years. Sylvan continually strives to offer the best programs available, programs which have been developed through clinical research.
2. Individual lessons are designed for the specific needs of each student, and updated regularly.
3. Sylvan teachers are highly qualified. They meet state standards and undergo training in Sylvan teaching methods.
4. A low teacher/student ratio exists. A teacher never has more than three students at one time. Each student works on his/her individual program.
5. Each student has a communication log in his/her notebook. The Sylvan teacher uses it to document the student’s work habits and ability to complete assignments each hour. These comments help the director better understand the student’s academic strengths and weaknesses.
6. A prescription profile chart is updated after each hour of instruction to make certain each student is progressing at a positive rate in the overall plan for his/her success.
7. If the release form has been signed, teacher contacts are made via email and telephone. Conferences with you and your child’s teacher will be attended upon request.
8. Ongoing conferences are held each month at the Bowling Green Sylvan Learning Center to inform of you of your child’s progress.
9. Motivational strategies are used with your child to help enhance self esteem.
10. Progress Assessments are given after every 36 hours of instruction to students enrolled in Academic Reading or Math Essentials.
