Math Tutoring Reveals Gifted Student"My son struggled with math for years. I had heard about Sylvan but never really took the time to investigate. My son really began to suffer in school and was feeling very insecure about himself. Finally, I called the toll free number and the young lady was very patient, kind and seemed to understand exactly what our situation was! I felt like she really cared. So I went in and talked to the director. April listened to me like I was an old friend. I cried and she gave me tissues. I told her what the problems were and she had answers! I felt so reassured. I felt like Sylvan could help my son be better in math and be a better student overall. And almost 9 months later I am astonished at the progress my son has made! He is 100% better than he was when we first went to Sylvan. He LOVES going to Sylvan. The people are friendly, encouraging, kind, patient and FUN! I am so thankful that we made the decision to enroll my son. I know that an investment in my son is an investment in a better FUTURE for our entire family and even our community. Better students produce more effective and productive citizens! Thank you April, Heather and Sylvan for putting my son on the right track! I LOVE YOU GUYS!!!! - Shelly, Gabriel's mom |

Reading Improves One Full Grade Level"My son Jakob started Sylvan the summer after 4th grade and before the 5th grade. He was an average student that struggled with Language Arts. His grades were OK, usually Bs and Cs and he had no problems passing the TAKS test (required by our state). - Lorelei, mom of Jakob |

Summer Reading Tutoring Improves Confidence"My daughter asked – no, begged – her father and I to sign her up for Sylvan. She knew she was behind her classmates and would benefit from tutoring during the summer months. She worked hard and so did the teachers at Sylvan. She increased her reading fluency just as she wanted and started the next school year with greater confidence and better reading skills. Her dad and I were very pleased with the program and would recommend it to all parents and students that are achieving just at or below grade level. It really does help build confidence and improve skills" - Christina Ghosn, Mom of Amber |
Noticeable Reading Improvement in Two Weeks"Within two weeks of enrolling our child in Sylvan Learning Center's Reading program, we began to notice that he was speaking more clearly and with an increased vocabulary. His confidence level has grown by leaps and bounds as well. We have no doubts that our decision to enroll him at Sylvan was the best choice for his future. The staff at Sylvan is very professional and personable. They have maintained a regular conferencing schedule to keep us updated with our child's progress throughout the program." - Parents of a Sylvan student |
A Great Start to High School"April, - Parent of a Round Rock Sylvan Student |
Math Tutoring Results in Remarkable Progress"I decided to place my son in Sylvan Learning during the summer of 2008. Upon arrival he was assessed in both Math and English Language Arts, his math scores measured a fifth grade level. I was relieved to know what skills he needed to master but was unsure about his learning disability and interaction with the instructors at Sylvan Learning. I must admit there were times when I felt like giving up but I remained persistent and he has made remarkable progress. - Debbie Bridge |
Improved Vocabulary and Reading Skills"Elena has really enjoyed Sylvan. Sylvan made a positive impact on Elena's confidence and improved her vocabulary and reading skills so she will be ready for 5th grade! Also, the positive reenforcement of the teachers and finishing all the work during tutoring made Elena want to go to Sylvan every week and learn. - Cindy Fortress |

2nd Grader Improves Two Grade Levels in Reading"Tyler attends Thrall Elementary, and our son's reading was two levels below the expected reading level. We watched our son struggle in second grade and we tried different tutoring options, but our son still did not seem to comprehend. My husband and I contacted Sylvan (Round Rock) and after meeting with the staff to determine what exactly our son needed in order to succeed, I was ecstatic. My son has completed his sessions and I would like to say kudos to the Sylvan staff for their hard work and efforts with my son. It was greatly appreciated. - Rachel, mom of Tyler |
92 on TAKS Reading"My daughter has been going to Sylvan for about 5 months. She has struggled through school since kindergarten and is in 3rd grade now. She was always behind, barely at grade level (if not just below) by the end of the year. I was in a panic this year with 3rd grade TAKS tests and her teacher said she was at risk of not passing 3rd grade. I am thrilled at her progress. I had serious doubts she would be an A student, I would have been perfectly fine with a strong C or low B. She has gone BEYOND what I expected!!!!! She made a 92 on the reading part of the TAKS and we are confident she will do just fine on the upcoming math part. I feel confident she will be above grade level since starting school and I am so proud of her. She has more confidence at school and does not panic when asked to do homework. I can see it every day in the way she approaches school now. We will have her in Sylvan throughout her education. It has made a world of difference for her!!!!!!" - Nicole Harding |
Grammar and Writing Progress"Sylvan has helped me in a lot of ways. Before I came, I did not know anything about grammar. Now I do! All of the teachers are really great. They kept me encouraged to do my best." - Michael A. |

Reading Tutoring Pays Off"Matt is doing very well in school. He is one of the top ten in class now. Thanks for all your help at Sylvan...our deepest gratitude and appreciation is beyond measure for helping Matt jump start to the next level and boosting his confidence in reading...Thank you very much. - Mildred, Round Rock Mother |
Reading Tutoring Helps Round Rock Student"My son is doing AMAZING!!! He has made almost straight A's. A couple B's but they are very high. He didn't lose any of his reading skills from when he stopped for the summer and started back at the beginning of the year. He was even a little ahead. He doesn't struggle with reading at all. He picks up books and just reads for fun all of the time. He is in a reading club at the library and read enough blue bonnet books he gets to go to a party. - Sara |
Sylvan Prepares High School Students for College Success!"I just wanted to send a short note to let you know what happened a couple - Eileen Martin |
Sylvan Individualizes Instruction and Feedback"We liked the individual goals established for Chelsye and the monthly progress meetings/reports. The confidence and skills in reading and phonics have given her a tremendously jump start in 1st grade and a love for reading. We feel that this was one of the best investments we could have made for our daughter." - Sheila Ornick |
Sylvan Study Skills Helps Build Strong Motivation"Several things, I like that my son progressed a grade level during our first 6 months, and he learned some very needed study skills. Also, I like that April holds Jonathan accountable. April praises and discusses (calmly) issues with him when needed. He is not defensive with her like he is with me. Thank you April!" - Lisa Osborne |
Reading Foundation for Kindergarten Solidified at Sylvan"My daughter responded to the teaching methods of Sylvan better than anything my wife and I had tried previously. The beginning reading curriculum was exceptional, and they even kept our Pre-K teacher involved so they could work together on the reading lessons. Kindergarten in Round Rock is much easier now that she is ahead of the reading curve, and a lot of the kids in her class." - John Woodward |
"Phenomenal Results""This program and location is amazing. We saw phenomenal results in the 9 months our son attended classes." - A J Wagner |
Confidence is the Key!"I love the fact that confidence and encouragement from teachers are along with the program of knowledge. This made a huge difference in my child's life. She loves to do work and has fun along with it and most importantly she feels successful! Thanks Sylvan!" - Kendra Gordon |
Sylvan Helps Children Exceed Classroom Goals"My son has been showing tremendous improvement after only a few weeks at Sylvan. He's meeting goals at school that were not expected this early in the year. I really like the way that Sylvan teaches a concept in multiple ways to help a student grasp the idea and actually learn instead of just memorization." - Amy Bishop |
Sylvan Teaches Motivation!"Sylvan has individual plans, everyone is very caring and concerned with all students, and they have great ideas to keep students motivated and teach students what isn't being taught in schools." - Terri & Alan Becklein |
Sylvan's "Personal Touch""The personal touch that my daughter and I received from ALL the staff. I was very upset with my daughter's schooling and felt I was not being heard from her teacher. At Sylvan, from the very first meeting I felt heard and knew that my daughter was in good hands." - Paige Leschber |
My Son "Continues To Bloom" Thanks to Sylvan"The personal attention that was given to my child and us was awesome. The folks there are caring and understanding. Thanks toSlyvan, my child is a straight "A" student and continues to blossom. He came home last week stating he wanted to write a book. How awesome is that?" - Tammy West |
Sylvan Promotes a Safe and Welcoming Environment"Our daughter felt very safe and welcome at Sylvan. The incentive to learn was positive - she never felt any negative pressure. She understood the expectations each session. Her grades reflect her work at Sylvan. Her reading grades have skyrocketed. Once a D student, she is now an A and B student" - Chris and Sarah Jenkins |
