Parent Reviews
I have been at sylvan for about 2 years and i love it! The staff are awesome and kind. Everyone is welcoming and you can learn lots from this program.
I have been doing Sylvan for a while and don't regret joining. From the first day I enjoyed how they did work but also fun things towards the end of each session.
My daughter has shown significant improvement in her learning and has gained a lot of confidence. The environment at Sylvan is excellent, and the staff are wonderful and very supportive. I highly recommend this place.
My nephew Harvey enjoys spending time at a place called Sylvan, where he works on his writing. He likes going there because it helps him stay focused and improve his skills. Writing at Sylvan makes him feel more confident, and he enjoys seeing his progress each time he goes.
My son "Harvey" has almost been at sylvan for a year now. And he says he has lots of fun learning writing here. There are many topics to learn like math, reading, and writing. Definitely sign up for sylvan today.
My son really likes coming here. We started in october. So far it's been 3 months and my son says the Tutors are nice. They have a decent amount of time slote so it's really good if you have a flexible schedule. It's a little expensive but I think that something that has to be expected nowadays. The location is accessible and there's always easy parking.
My son struggled with writing in 1st and 2nd grade and Sylvan helped him improve in many areas and he enjoyed going, even at 3 times a week! He spoke highly of his tutors and seemed to make a connection with each one easily. I would recommend Sylvan to any parent who wants to see their child do better in school (math, reading, writing) and see them excited about learning.
Sylvan has been an amazing place to learn, their tutors explain things in a way that finally makes sense. I've gained so much confidence in my schoolwork, and I actually look forward to my sessions every week!
Sylvan has done wonders to help boost our child's work in reading, writing and math! We have seen such an improvement in both her knowledge and confidence in doing her schoolwork and homework. We are so glad we came to them for help in helping our child grow and learn! Such a good resource and investment :)
Sylvan is a great place to learn and practice writing, reading and math. Each day at Sylvan, you can complete up to five lessons, and when you reach your goals, you earn a certificate. - Kingsley Huo
Sylvan is a great place with a wonderful admin.They will help your child strive to catch up in there grade.
Sylvan is a place where kids get extra help with learning. Teachers work with students on reading and math at their own level. It helps kids improve and feel more confident. From Haley a student from Sylvan

Sylvan learning is a very good place to take your child if they are struggling in school. The place is very taken care of very clean it motivates kids to do good with a store with prizes that you can spend your tokens you get by working hard. It provides us with water in case we get thirsty and a clean bathroom. All the teachers are very nice and make sure you understand the topic you're struggling on no matter how many times you ask for help.-student that goes to sylvan
