Success Stories

CELEBRATING SUCCESS!

Originally, my husband and I sought Sylvan's academic assistance in secondary school writing for our son. Then, our teenage daughter jumped at the chance to receive study skills and Grade 12 math help as she prepared to enter tech college," says Heidi, mother of fifteen year old Stefan and eighteen year old Maria. After attending the Prince Albert centre both students improved their study skills, their grades and their self-confidence. Heide explains that she always knew Stefan was brilliant, but he needed someone else to believe and help him reach his potential. "I did not know what to do to help my kids become academically successful. Sylvan brought us hope. Stefan recently wrote his first 'correct' essay and Maria improved by 25 percent in her first semester of college. Their successes are due to the academic foundation my kids learned at Sylvan," she comments. "Sylvan's expert teachers and staff personalized the instruction to better fit both of my kids' learning styles and taught them the organizational and life skills that will benefit them for the rest of their lives."

In addition to the tailored, individualized learning plans that build the lasting skills and habits students need to get organized, study smarter and score higher on tests, Heidi believes the most impressive aspect of Sylvan is its people. "The staff and instructors at Sylvan know how to get to the heart of learning. Not only are they teaching because they truly want to make a positive difference in children's lives, they help academically frustrated kids 'get it' while developing a love of learning," she says. "Angeline Hesje, the franchisee of the centre, and her staff even drove one hour to attend my daughter's high school graduation. They took Maria under their wings to ensure her academic success, and will always be a part of our family. We could not have dreamed of more caring teachers."

Heide has advice for mothers of teenaged students. She suggests that parents obtain professional academic assistance as soon as a problem is identified. She also reminds families that there's hope to rectify homework struggles. "Sylvan brought my family hope and they can do it for your family too. I cannot wait to tell others about our learning experience. In fact, we recommended that our friends send their child to Sylvan for organization and study skills," says Heide. "MY ONLY REGRET WAS NOT COMING TO SYLVAN SOONER!

A "Very, Very Good Thing"

Luke is a ten year old boy who is currently in Grade 5. When he was in grade 1, his teacher contacted his mother to tell her that Luke needed extra help in reading. "I remembered a Sylvan commercial that I had seen on television. The commercial encouraged parents to seek early intervention," explains Luke's mother, Tamara. "I thought, 'Now is the time to get help' because Luke has eleven more years of school. Everything just clicked and Luke has been receiving Sylvan's personalized instruction ever since."
In October 2003, Luke began attending the Beginning Reading program at the Prince Albert Sylvan Learning Centre. Due to his perserverance, in a short time, Luke "graduated" to the Academic Reading program. "My son's hard work paid off. By Grade 2 Luke was a leader in the classroom and has continued to be a leader since he gained self-confidence from Sylvan," adds Tamara. In 2004, Luke switched his academic focus to math and has been coming to Sylvan for math instruction for three years.
"Luke has maintained excellent academic achievement in school. He works very hard," comments Angeline Hesje, franchisee and director of the centre. "Luke has an excellent work ethic, which is a great indicator for what he will achieve in his life."
Luke's mother credits her son's success to the personalized learning plan and individual attention Sylvan offers. "Luke takes pride in his accomplishments. He receives constant praise at Sylvan and his self-esteem has grown because of it. There's a feeling of pride that he has always gotten from his instructor, Donna, Angeline (Hesje), and the Sylvan staff. He likes working hard to obtain a positive result," she says.
"I feel that I finally have control over helping my son. Sylvan has taught Luke, but they have taught me too. My son is very confident now and, if there is one thing a parent hopes to give a child, it is self-confidence," adds Tamara. "As Martha Stewart says, 'It's a very, very good thing!"
