I love the staff, everyone is so supportive of my concerns for my grandson. They are available to me when I have questions. I also appreciate their teaching process. My grandson is progressing smoothly. Much appreciated.
My daughter has shown great improvement in her reading since attending Sylvan. We've noticed a significant boost in her confidence, comprehension, and fluency. Her school reading scores have improved, and she's now more excited about reading on her own. I truly appreciate the supportive environment and tailored instruction provided by the Sylvan team. It's made a meaningful difference in her academic progress.
My daughter loves going to Sylvan. They have great teachers, and my daughter has improved in reading over the last year. Her confidence, and test anxiety has also improved alot.
Our 8-year-old daughter has been attending Sylvan for a few months now, and the experience has been fantastic. I was initially concerned about whether she would stay engaged, but she is actually incredibly motivated and looks forward to her sessions! The tutors are professional and truly know how to connect with kids. We also appreciate the regular check-ins with the Director; he provides detailed progress updates and is always open to our feedback. Highly recommended for any parent looking for quality academic support.
Staff are very friendly and welcoming. My daughter always tells me at the end of each session learned lots and understands things better. And I'm happy that she enjoys math and gets excited every time I say “Time for math class!”
Sylvan learning can help the kids to improve their English
The staffs are very courteous and children get individual attention. My child is super excited about her classes and looking forward for her upcoming assessments. Learning is made fun !!
We 10 year old benefited tremendously with Sylvan's reading program. She always looked forward to her sessions and loved her instructors. Her reading speed and comprehension improved dramatically, and she has begun to enjoy reading for pleasure. Abhishek was also super helpful with his insights and analysis. We would highly recommend Sylvan for anyone interested in reading or writing programs.
We are beyond grateful for Sylvan Learning of San Jose - Westgate and especially for Gary, who has made such a meaningful impact on my daughter Charlize. Charlize came to Sylvan needing support in both math and reading, and from the very beginning, Gary showed incredible patience, encouragement, and genuine care. He has a wonderful way of breaking things down so they actually click, while also building her confidence along the way. We've seen real improvement not just academically, but in how she feels about learning overall. I also can't say enough about how excellent the communication has been with Lisa and Abhishek. They are responsive, thoughtful, and truly invested in Charlize's progress. Whether it's check-ins, updates, or scheduling, I always feel informed, supported, and confident that my child is in good hands. Charlize now approaches math and reading with far less frustration and much more confidence, and that alone speaks volumes. The environment at Sylvan is warm, supportive, and well-structured, and the entire team clearly cares about their students' success. Thank you to Gary, Lisa, Abhishek, and the entire Sylvan team for helping Charlize grow, learn, and believe in herself. We couldn't be more thankful and highly recommend Sylvan to any family looking for academic support with heart.
We are really happy at Sylvan. We feel like they are a partner in our child's education.
