Most Improved

"My son, Nazir, is attending Sylvan for help in reading. He has trouble in comprehension, motivation for reading and writing. His response to the tutoring has been wonderful. Nazir has been very successful and with the help of his teacher at Sylvan, Kenny, he has made improvements. As the result of this tutoring he is eager to learn and is able to read more on his own. He was awarded Most Improved this last month in his class and I even received a call from his teacher stating that she had seen a marked improvement in his attention and reading in class. This program has truly helped my son grow and learn."

Children come first

"We would like to express our appreciation for the professionalism shown by the administrative and auxiliary staff at the Sylvan Learning Center in Gardena, CA. The staff is always warm and caring. By their actions we know they truly care about the children’s welfare. The boys came in with needs in both math and reading. They both needed to be brought up to grade level proficiency. The goals that were set for the children were achieved and not only have they grown academically, they love the interactions with their teachers here at Sylvan and love being a part of the learning process. They look forward to coming and have shown improvement in their homework. From speaking with their teachers since they began the program, the boys have made some improvements in class, their motivation and work being turned in class. We are thankful for the interactions with us and the boys; they have been superb and have exceeded our expectations."

Sylvan is the way to go!

"I believe Sylvan Learning Center is an amazing place; my husband and I are s happy with Sylvan. My son has been attending Sylvan for almost seven months and he has made such an improvement. Sylvan has helped my son be more focused, positive, and self-motivated towards school and homework. We are so proud to say that Sylvan is the way to go! I would recommend Sylvan Learning Center to everybody."

"My husband and I sent our daughter, Andrea, to Sylvan because at the time she was a Junior in High School and failing algebra. She always had problems in math and any tutoring we provided did not help. We finally called Sylvan and from the moment we walked in we felt it would be a positive outcome. The staff was extremely professional and put my daughter's mind at ease right away. They explained math in a way that made sense to her. They not only gave her the confidence in math but in learning in general. Her whole attitude about school changed overnight. She received her first B in Algebra which was way beyond our expectations. I know it was because of the things she learned at Sylvan and the positive experience she had."

"Our daughter, Monica, has been enrolled in Sylvan since April. In five months she has improved two whole grade levels in her reading. She will tell you that she enjoys reading now and is more determined than ever to reach her grade level. I still get tears in my eyes when I hear my daughter read and see tests scores that show her improvement."

"My son, Alex, was having a terrible time in the 8th grade in reading and math. We did everything the school recommended, but it wasn't helping...I finally went to Sylvan. It was February and I was afraid they weren't going to be able to help him fast enough. I met with Todd, the Director, and he got Alex tested and into a personalized program right away...Within weeks Alex started feeling confident about reading and math and loved going to the center every week to work with his Sylvan teachers. Alex went from being distracted and confused in school to being confident and focused on his work. Finally, as Alex was finishing his Sylvan program I got his progress report from school. Alex was getting mostly A's and B's! I couldn't believe it. I was hoping for C's and maybe a few B's and praying for no D's or F's. Alex's progress report surpassed my expectations. Thanks to Sylvan Alex is going much better in school and he is happy and confident."
