A Sylvan algebra tutor will provide your child with the skills to solve the toughest of algebra problems with confidence. Sylvan's approach focuses on problem solving, which makes the course relevant and useful and allows algebra to serve as a gateway for more advanced high school courses.
Students of a Sylvan algebra tutor learn and apply essential algebraic concepts:
Students also complete exercises with the algebra tutor using graphing calculators, software and manipulatives. This approach addresses a student's unique learning style and cements his understanding of algebraic concepts and processes.
Our students also benefit from a low student-to-algebra tutor ratio, in which a fully customized program is delivered. The Sylvan algebra tutor adapts the program to the needs of the individual student, whether that is to remediate, review, supplement current school instruction or even assist with regular homework assignments. The progress your child makes will be evident via regular updates from the algebra tutor and the results of ongoing progress reports. Sylvan's algebra curriculum is based on the Principles and Standards for School Mathematics, developed by the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics.
