We had a great experience with Sylvan. My 12 year old grandson could not read. Sylvan assisted him and he has shown much improvement after 6 months. We put a lot of effort, money and time into getting him what he needed. We drove 250 miles 2x week for 2 hour sessions so he could attend.
He enjoyed attending and I can’t express my appreciation for sylvan and the quality of assistance provided. He now’s attends a micro school thanks to sylvan’s input about micro schools.
We will miss our trips to Jackson Ms. Special thanks to Kristine, she was always so professional. She has such a pleasant way when dealing with children and families.

Our granddaughter received tutoring at Sylvan. She grew so much. Not only did she grow academically, her self confidence improved beyond measures. I highly recommend Sylvan and their amazing staff to any student who needs improvement in their academic growth.
I love this center! Both of my kids tested higher at the beginning of this school year than ever before. My daughter was the only one who earned a passing grade on her reading test, with a 93! She was so happy and thanked me for getting her the additional help she needed this summer. We are so proud of her progress, and we will definitely be back! ❤️
Great to have small groups and teacher. Child felt comfortable with different students, different ages, at each session.
Appreciated a director’s summary following implementation of the summer sessions.
Your communication with Parents and the progress report of my kids are awesome. I will sure recommend this facility to anyone that their kid(s) need academic help.
My daughter had three tutorial sessions with Sylvan Learning Center and was able to improve her ACT score by three points. I will definitely schedule more sessions prior to her next ACT.
We enrolled our son at Sylvan Learning Center during a time when he truly needed extra support. After changing schools, his new school’s reading assessment showed he was already a couple of months behind. As the months went on, he fell even further behind—not because he didn’t understand the material, but because in second grade he was suddenly expected to read independently and fully comprehend what he read.
By the end of the first semester, he earned a B in ELA, but when the second semester started with grades of 58 and 65, I knew he was really struggling and needed help. That’s when we turned to Sylvan.
Within just a few weeks, we noticed a significant difference. His reading fluency, writing, and ELA assessment scores improved dramatically—jumping into the mid-80s, 90s, and even high 90s (85, 95, 96, 92). He finished the semester with a B, and I truly believe that if he continues at Sylvan, he will earn As in the next two semesters.
Even more important than the grades, his confidence has returned. He loves school again. He actually looks forward to going to Sylvan and learning, and now he even tries to teach his 4-year-old sister how to read. Seeing that excitement and self-belief come back has meant everything to us.
We are so grateful to Ms. Kristen and all the teachers of Sylvan Learning Center for not only helping our son academically, but for helping him rediscover his love for learning.
I have been pleased with the tutoring assistance that has been provided to my daughter within this short time span. She enjoys attending and is able to apply the tokens of knowledge that she has received thus far from the wonderful instructors with the center. We’ve been attending for almost 1 month and are very satisfied.
We are currently receiving enrichment services at Sylvan. We have been pleased with the growth and confidence our girl has shown. She is so excited to go to her tutoring classes. She absolutely loves her teachers there.
Great Staff. The learning tools given are excellent. If you have a student showing any signs of struggling, I would not hesitate doing an assessment. Best we have done for ours.
My student has gained more confidence and skills with the tutoring program. As he stated from day one. He now feels great about taking the ACT. Thank you for your support and encouragement.
