My daughter has been attending Sylvan since June of 2022, and I must say that Mark and Amy Kance are phenomenal! My daughter truly enjoys spending her time with the instructors, and the benefits of the instruction that they provide are quite evident in her school work, her reading, as well as her spelling, not to mention her confidence! For years, I had asked her teachers if tutoring would be a good idea, and each year, the teachers would tell me they were handling it, and eventually she would make the progress needed. Please do not get me wrong, my daughter has had some absolutely amazing teachers that worked well with her, however, she just needed some additional help to get to the root of it. If you are ever in question about a similar situation, call Mark, he will take the time necessary to explain the details of their program and let you know how many hours of instruction they will need to accomplish their goals. He speaks honestly and does not sugar coat these important details. Needless to say, Sylvan is getting her where she needs to be, and I would absolutely recommend them to anyone that is struggling. At Sylvan, they live by their word. They are extremely organized and personable. They truly take the needs of each child and focus solely on those needs. They are not interested in wasting time teaching things that your children are proficient at. They do not just let children slide by a lesson. They challenge them everyday! Their token reward system is wonderful as well. My daughter loves being able to shop at the store for doing well. They are absolutely wonderful at doing what they do! They have the most flexible scheduling I have ever seen and will do whatever it takes to meet your needs as a parent, while also creating a fun, entertaining, and healthy environment for your children. At Sylvan they also provide monthly updates on your child's progress and hours of instruction. They provide feedback directly from their certified teachers and let you know exactly how much progress is being made so that you can be assured that the time and effort, not to mention, financial responsibly, that you and your child are putting into the program is absolutely worth it. I have spoken to many of the staff members at Sylvan, and I can honestly say that they seem to really enjoy their positions, which speaks volumes about the company and people they are working with. I appreciate all of the effort that all of the teachers put in on a daily basis: Ms. Stacy, Ms. Lauren, and Ms. Rebecca, as well as many others are absolutely wonderful to work with. My daughter looks forward to her lessons, and that also speaks volumes about the culture at Sylvan. My only wish is that I had reached out to Mark and Amy sooner! They are changing my daughters life and I could not be more grateful to them and Sylvan as a whole. I am so proud to be a part of the Sylvan Family. read more
