We absolutely love Sylvan! Since starting tutoring, both of my children have made significant academic progress. We’ve seen real growth in their confidence and skills, which has been so rewarding as parents. Peter and his team are wonderful — friendly, reliable, and genuinely invested in the kids’ success. My children actually enjoy going, which says everything. We’re so grateful for the support and highly recommend Sylvan to any family looking for academic help.

Peter is great. He took so much time to understand my daughter's unique needs and design a program to address them.

Sylvan is great. We wanted our kids to take some accelerated courses at school and have their standards at above the grade level. Sylvan helped my kids to pick up so quickly to meet the standards we are looking for so that they are successful when they approach the SAT exams.

Thus far we are pleased with our daughter's enthusiasm and the eagerness with which she approaches her scheduled visits. We have received positive feedback from her teacher at her enrolled elementary, and believe this can be attributed to the lessons she is reviewing and receiving at Sylvan. While it is still early, we are hopeful that her progress will be quantifiable and substantial, and allow her to meet and then exceed the expectations for her grade level, and prepare her for future academic success.

We had a very short amount of time to get my daughter help with reading prep for the SATs. Peter worked quickly to get her in and to get her a schedule. It also had to be changed along the way and he was very quick and accommodating. I know know the name of her tutor but she was happy with the help she received. We're still waiting for her scores but hoping she increased by 100 which is all she needed. I've already recommended you to another family at school. Thank you.

My 6 year old has only gone 7 times. Before starting he hated reading and would find every excuse not to do it. After the fifth session I started catching him alone in his room practicing both reading and writing on his own. After his seventh session tonight he told me "tutoring is actually quite fun and I think reading is getting easier." This is all I could have hoped for. All I ever wanted for my child is to be able to find the joy in learning and reading and Sylvan is helping him do that. I am very grateful.

My 16 year old daughter claims the tutoring is very helpful and says she can tell it will make a difference in the classroom and on the SAT. She has never grumbled a bit about spending two hours on a Saturday morning working on complex math and speaks very highly about her teacher and the program.

All of the teachers there have made my son feel comfortable & wanting to progress & achieve more. It’s working, he’s improved significantly already. I would highly recommend it.
