Mrs. Jodi Newman joined the Sylvan Texas team in 2008 after having worked for the last 10+ years for the same company at Sylvan Learning Centers in Southern CA. She started there as a tutor and diagnostician, then moved into a Director of Education role, and for the past 8 years was the Center Director. Jodi is also a NYS credentialed English teacher--and has taught in the public and private sectors as well as having assisted in various ESL roles to students overseas in Lithuania, Poland, and East Africa. Jodi is very committed to the success of our Sylvan Students and their families, and is passionate about the quality of programs, exceptional customer service, and that each family genuinely experiences that LEARNING FEELS GOOD at Sylvan! Jodi oversees the Sylvan Southlake, Arlington, and Burleson Centers-ensuring the quality of Customer Service, Programs, and general business practices. Jodi's main office is here in Southlake, so you'll see her A LOT as she is actively involved with each family and every student!
Mrs. Denise Luckey joined the Sylvan Learning Center (Southlake) Team in early 2004. Mrs. Luckey is a favorite of so many of our students--past and present! She and her husband have two beautiful daughters and one grandson! One of her daughters, Kristin, also works as a Director for the metroplex Sylvans! Denise has taught in the 4th grade, 7th grade, and 8th grade classrooms in the New Jersey and Illinois school systems before coming to Texas in 1985. Denise holds three credentials: New Jersey; Illinois; and Texas. A graduate of Carlow College in Pittsburg, PA, with a B.S. in Psychology and Education, Denise values the family unit, each student as an individual, and the educational process as a whole. She keeps current on all educational issues. Denise's passion is to build self esteem and motivation through enabling students of all ages to achieve their academic potential. She is responsible for the educational integrity of Sylvan Southlake's programs and delivery of services. She personally case-manages our student’s entire curriculum, and oversees the instructors and their training. If you haven't met "Miss Denise", stop by today and say hello!
The instructors that tutor at our Sylvan Southlake location are carefully screened and selected. Each candidate goes through a prescreen process in which we filter out teaching credentials that match the student body we have, personality types, and integrity. Then, a series of interviews takes place with our Directors to look for teachers who have not only the skill to teach and explain, but have a passion for building confidence in their students. Our staff must uphold the highest academic standards, but also must maintain personal integrity. We are proud of the family we've created; they are trained well and work hard to ensure that each and every student has a positive experience at Sylvan Southlake. During your intake conference, the Director will work with you to determine which instructors will work best with your student.
Becky Thorne joined the Sylvan Southlake Team in April of 2009. She holds a Bachelor of Arts in English from UTA. She spent several years in Corporate Education where she was responsible for developing instructional materials and policy/procedure manuals. Becky eventually left that position to manage a mid-sized, self-owned company and to home school her daughter, Taylor, who is now a thriving college student. Becky's commitment to Customer Service, Education, and passion for kids is completely evident in her work. She will help you with your scheduling and accounting needs.
