More parents, more teachers and more students all turn to Sylvan more than any other tutoring service. Primarily because we have been so successful at helping students reach their potential inside and outside the classroom for more than a quarter of a century.
Sylvan offers a unique approach to learning that sets us apart from any other tutoring service. We call it the Sylvan Advantage®. Here's how it works:
The first (and most important) step in our process identifies your child's current academic level and prescribes where he needs to be, so we can track our progress in getting there. This assessment also highlights your child's academic strengths and needs, or "skill gaps."
Once Sylvan has identified your child's skill gaps, our tutors create the blueprint for an individualized tutoring program. Sylvan recognizes that each student learns differently, and we customize our program to assess their unique goals and learning style.
Sylvan's tutoring service is comprised of teachers that are highly trained and certified and love to teach. Every Sylvan tutor is dedicated to achieving the individual learning goals of your child.
Individual attention ensures your child will have his questions and needs addressed quickly. Sylvan's tutoring service is designed so that each student has both immediate access to the tutor and the opportunity to work independently. This independence boosts confidence, while personal attention from Sylvan's committed and caring tutors helps your child realize success.
At Sylvan, we keep you updated with progress reports every step of the way. During regularly scheduled conferences with your child's tutor, we'll determine together if your child is progressing on track or if the program should be accelerated.
We appreciate the needs of today's busy families. We aim to make Sylvan's tutoring service as convenient as possible for you and your child — whether it's weekend tutoring sessions at a Sylvan Learning Center in your area or live, online tutoring from home.
