Parent Reviews
A wonderful place! Kind and understanding instruction helped my son catch up on his math in no time at all. Cannot recommend them enough.
Awesome staff, quick and easy to take tests! Always clean and quiet. Megan is great!
Dr. V. and all the teachers are all incredibly supportive and enthusiastic teachers. Sylvan has helped our kids build a framework on how to approach problem solving. The approach is more than just rote memorization They help build the confidence for our kids to know that they can figure it out rather than just asking for the answer and help immediately. Dr. V likes to have regular check ins with us to discuss our kids progress and what areas that they are currently working on.
Fantastic experience with Megan and the team at Sylvan Learning Center. They made my testing experience flawless and efficient. Could not be more pleased. Very clean and quiet. They were very informative and treated us test takers very well! Thank you for all the help
Has been a wonderful experience , my son has excelled in every aspect since starting . They are always accommodating with changes and each week has given us new educational opportunities . Thank you
I can't say enough about Sylvan, I've seen my daughter confident grow eminently throughout the years.
I can't say enough good things about the Sylvan Learning testing center! I've had to take multiple appraisal exams here, and every time they've gone above and beyond to make the process smooth and stress-free. I had unique testing needs that required extended time outside of the normal sessions, and the staff was incredibly accommodating and supportive. Megan, in particular, deserves special recognition—she was patient, professional, and genuinely helpful throughout the entire process. Her kindness and attention made a huge difference during a stressful time, and I'm so grateful for her support. I truly don't know what I would have done without this team. They create a welcoming, professional environment and clearly care about the success of every person who walks through their doors. Highly recommend this location—I'll continue coming back here whenever I need testing.
I had an excellent experience taking an exam at this Sylvan Learning location. In particular, Megan was extremely helpful with scheduling (during the holidays). Thank you! I would definitely work with you again if the need for an exam proctor arises in the future.
I took my Real Estate course final exam here and passed. The room was quiet and relaxing which made it easy to concentrate.
Megan was so helpful and kind! They provided me with all the tools needed for testing and were encouraging.
My daughter has been attending Sylvan for some time now and it is amazing to see her growth and confidence now. She looks forward to going and enjoys all of the teachers/staff. They took time to learn and understand her specific learning needs. Everyone has been so helpful and kind since we started! I am so grateful we chose Sylvan!
My son attends Sylvan for help with Precalculus and he looks forward to his lessons with Dr. V. She is so helpful, patient, and accommodating! I highly recommend Sylvan for tutoring!
My son had a great experience at Sylvan. The director and all the instructors he worked with were extremely knowledgeable and helpful. They accommodated our busy schedule, and were easy to communicate with. Most importantly, my son passed his regents geometry exam with an 84!
My son has been attending Sylvan for some time now, and the growth we've seen in both his reading skills and confidence has been remarkable. I honestly don't know where he would be in school if we didn't bring him to Sylvan. The staff is so supportive, knowledgeable, and truly invested in each child's success. Their personalized approach helps students build confidence, master skills, and develop a genuine enjoyment for learning. We've seen real, measurable improvement and couldn't be happier. Highly recommend.
My son used to cry doing his math homework every night. We looked into Sylvan and decided to invest in his education. Not only has his confidence in math improved, but he actually looks forward to his sessions. We are so grateful for the support and the positive learning environment Sylvan provides. We love everyone there and couldn't recommend it more!
Reliable, friendly and knowledgeable staff. The one on one tutoring is excellent. The best investment I've made for my child.
The person I worked with was extremely kind and helpful. Definitely will be coming here again for any of my proctored exams!:)
Took two proctored exams for state approved trainings and it was a pleasant experience both times. Great facility and great staff
Very clean and well lit location. Very friendly staff and ample parking.
We've been very happy with Sylvan. Our daughter was months behind on her curriculum before joining, and now she's all caught up. Highly recommended.
