Emily's improvement has been amazing!

"I took my 9 year old daughter, Emily, to Sylvan when she was having trouble with her reading and spelling skills. Emily's improvement has been amazing! Not only did her grades improve but she is now an avid reader. With the higher grades came a confidence that encouraged her even further. Once she started seeing more A's on her homework, she was completely motivated. I am very pleased with the quality of the teaching she received at Sylvan. I was also impressed with the level of service. If at any time I find that any of my 3 children need any assistance with their education, I have every intention of returning to Sylvan."

My daughter's math grade rapidly improved...

"We have found the staff and instructors at Sylvan to be extremely helpful and accommodating. My daughter's math grade rapidly improved once she began tutoring with Sylvan and she has consistently received A's and B's in her upper level math classes since then. They were able to provide the one on one help she needed to fully understand the required material as well as provide her with study skills that she can use in the future. As a parent it was a relief knowing that we could count on the Sylvan staff to help our child achieve her full potential in an area we weren't able to."

I am very happy that I chose Sylvan...

"I am very happy that I chose Sylvan and the Waterloo center for our son Lucas. The teaching staff was wonderful and great to work with. Chris Tedder was amazing to have as the director. She was very easy to work with and made the schedule flexible to meet our needs. We took a little longer to complete the session, due to working with my son's comfort level, and were very pleased with the outcome. He went from having very little confidence in math and reading to being able to complete his assignments on his own. By arming him with the skills he was lacking he went from being a middle of the road student to an honor roll student."

COLLEGE ENTRANCE EXAM

""My son was struggling in math and reading comprehension and was very worried about his college entrance exam. After working very hard at Sylvan he ended up getting 185 out of a possible 200 on the exam. The College is really pushing for my son to attend their College. He couldn't have done it without Sylvan Learning Center. The staff was very caring and customized his program to fit the skills that would be covered on the college entrance exam. Thank You Sylvan!"
