Parent Reviews
A fun place for children to go and learn. From the assessment done to the tailor made lessons for my son I can see a steady improvement in his learning. Mr Rick takes his time to explain to the Guardian what the program entails and the outcome to expect.
Both my sons — one in Grade 5 and one in Grade 1 — absolutely love their learning academy! The teachers make lessons fun and engaging, and the token reward system keeps them highly motivated. They look forward to going each time and have become more confident and curious about learning. We also really appreciate the regular updates on their progress and performance. Highly recommend this academy for its caring staff and positive learning environment!
I am absolutely satisfied with the assistance my child receives from Sylvan
I recommend Sylvan 100%. My sons scores went up on standard tests and he is more confident taking exams. The staff is amazing and patience.
I recommend Sylvan because it has helped my son improve his math, reading, and writing skills. Since we started school here, we've noticed progress in school.
I'm very grateful to for the amazing work they do with my two boys. Since they started attending, they have improved so much in school, especially in reading, math, and confidence with learning. The teachers are very patient, caring, and truly dedicated to helping children succeed. My kids enjoy going to class, and I can really see the difference in their grades and overall progress. I highly recommend Sylvan Learning in Edison NJ, to any family looking for extra educational support for their children!
Mr Rick and the team at Edison are exceptional. Miss Deborah has been a great force with foundational work for my son. My son improved under their program at understanding key factors that can be easily missed in a large classroom environments.
My son has been attending Sylvan of Edison for six months and the progress he's made is huge!! He was doing poorly in 2nd grade, his teacher reached out to let me know she was concerned with his phonics and reading retention. With the help of Sylvan my son has made huge improvement. It's highly noticeable in state testing but also he's so much more confident in his reading. The instructors here are patient and very supportive. I would recommend it 100%
My son started Sylvan in November-at the start of his journey he wasn't a fan of showing up twice a week/ 2 hours a day. We were concerned about his interest in school based on his grades. We felt he hit a roadblock. He was a B student slowly going into a C student. We decided to try Sylvan to fully understand how and where he needed help with both ELA and Math. They are metric based which is very helpful in understanding his learning style and what we can work on as he went along his learning journey. Rick is very detailed in the conferences, understands he does sports and is very flexible with his schedule, encourages my son in a way it doesn't feel pushy. Over time my son got over being there twice a week, he received honor roll, most improved and student of the month. Sylvan has brought my son's confidence back when it comes to his academics. I recommend this place 100%
Really helpful and awesome teachers! I had Ms. Xiao for math and Ms. Debra for english SAT prep; both worked every class to make sure I had the best experience possible. Both clearly are very experienced and care a lot about helping students, but aren't rigid in their instruction—meaning the student can ask for help in what they need specifically. Thank you, Sylvan!
Rick and his team are meticulous and outstanding when it comes to the focus and attention provided for my son. Classes are well organized, teachers are attentive and their guidance has made an impact on raising my child's grades this year. We recently had a conference and their guidance and explanation of the grades were thorough and helpful. Would recommend this center to anyone, we have seen much more involvement over any coaching centers that only distribute booklets and expect the parents to do all the teaching. We are happy to be enrolled in Sylvan for a very long time.
Such a great institution,My sons have just been there for more than 6months and i can see a great improvement in class work and confidence.We beginning to read better with composure unlike before.
Sylvan Edison is a great place to send students who either need additional assistance or want to stay ahead of subjects in school. We have been enrolled in Sylvan Edison NJ for many years since our child was in middle school and through out high school years. Sylvan helped to provide the extra tutorial support needed for our child to achieve even more success in the classroom as well as on SAT's through their SAT prep course work which help to achieve even better scores.
Sylvan in Edison is a great place for your child to get back to pace or ahead of. The teachers there are so kind and knowledgeable.
Sylvan Learning at Edison has been such a wonderful experience for me in my college admissions process! Rick (owner) assisted me in finding proper resources to develop insightful essays for college. He recommended Ms. Amanda, who was an amazing teacher who worked with me from starting to finalizing my essays. Throughout the process, she helped me detail my experiences, cut out unnecessary parts, and understand how to add closure to my essays. Ms. Amanda was very positive, resourceful, and understanding during my journey of writing which helped me gain satisfaction with my essays. Overall, Rick and his team have worked closely with me in order to boost my learning and experience in the classroom. I highly recommend this learning center for college help and finding assistance in other areas as well!
Sylvan Learning Center of Edison has been an excellent experience for our family. We are very happy with the tutoring services provided, especially the college-aged coaches who work so well with my eight-year-old. They are patient, encouraging, and make learning engaging and enjoyable. A special mention to Rick Hernandez, who is truly wonderful—very sweet, personable, warm, and welcoming. From the very beginning, he made us feel comfortable and confident in choosing this centre for our children's academic needs. We're off to a great start and look forward to continuing our learning journey with Sylvan Learning of Edison for both of my children. Highly recommended!
Sylvan Learning Center of Edison is a marvelous place. My son used to have problems in reading, but ever since he came here he has improved so much. We're highly grateful for Mr. Rick Hernandez and his team. They've treated us with kindness and patience. I highly recommend this place!
Very nice learning experience for kids! Rick is amazing to deal with and his team does diligent planning of learning schedule!
We enrolled our daughter at Sylvan Learning Center with the goal of building stronger reading and comprehension skills—and we couldn't be happier with the progress! From day one, the instructors made our child feel comfortable and excited about learning. They focus not only on phonics and reading fluency, but also on helping students truly understand what they're reading. Over time, we've seen a remarkable improvement in how our daughter reads and makes sense of stories. They've gone from simply sounding out words to being able to retell stories, answer questions, and talk about characters and main ideas with confidence. The growth in comprehension and vocabulary has also had a positive impact in school and at home—our child now reads for fun and loves sharing what they've learned. The personalized attention, positive encouragement, and well-structured lessons at Sylvan have truly helped build both skills and self-esteem. We're so thankful for the support, and we highly recommend Sylvan to any parent looking to strengthen their child's reading and story understanding.
We had a very positive experience with Sylvan Learning Edison. My 9-year-old daughter showed clear improvement in both reading and math after attending the program. She earned straight A (100%) in her school grade report after Sylvan. The instructors were attentive and adapted to her learning pace, which helped her stay engaged and focused. We also noticed an increase in her confidence when completing schoolwork independently. It is a structured and effective program, and I would recommend it to parents looking for extra academic support for their child. We are very happy with the results of our investment in our daughter's education.
We have just started our 4 yr old daughter's journey with sylvan , edison. So far we are liking it. She has become more accustomed now to her teachers and director and her surroundings , which is ultimately helping her in her tasks. We are very happy with Sylvan learning. The teachers are very interactive and give useful suggestions.
We've had such a positive experience with Sylvan Learning so far. From the moment I requested information, the process has been smooth and welcoming. Rick, the center director, called me back promptly and has been nothing but helpful ever since. He walked me through the entire sign up process, explained everything clearly, and genuinely cares about helping the kids succeed which is so reassuring as a parent. During follow up conferences, Rick takes his time to go over progress in detail and never makes you feel rushed when you have questions. That level of attention really stands out. My daughter has only been attending for a short time, and she's already making progress. Even better, she's always happy to go see her teacher and feels motivated during her sessions. I'm very happy and excited to continue seeing her grow!
