    It has been a pleasure working with the staff at Sylvan to develop a plan to assist me this summer in preparing my son for the upcoming school year. It was a pleasant surprise, as none of this was planned for this summer, to find the services I needed close to my home with the flexibility and expertise available here. There have been many occasions where I had to change his schedule, where he arrived early or arrived late and they were able to accommodate us. While I don't yet know if all our hard work this summer has paid off, I do feel confident that every lesson he received has provided him with valuable tools to succeed this school year. Thank you so much to everyone there!

    We had a great experience at Sylvan of Westlake! The staff was knowledgeable and showed their expertise in working with students, including students taking advanced classes. We definitely saw improvement within the first grading period after we started the Sylvan program. We really appreciated the option to customize the learning experience to fit exactly what we needed!

    The flexibility the staff has had to fit my needs is wonderful since I have such a busy schedule and I feel like I am constantly rescheduling or shuffling dates and times around. The skills they are showing my son are skills that unfortunately are not something schools focus on anymore and in my situation, they may be skills he is severely lacking.

    Algebra has been a struggle for my son. He feels he is getting great instruction and is getting the concepts.

    Sylvan was a great experience for my son. We have always had a hard time getting him to read anything at home. He attended Sylvan this summer and I thought it would be difficult getting him into it, since it was summer and it was his least favorite thing to do (read). I was wrong, he loved it. He loved going and looked forward to it. He loved his teachers and how the lessons were taught on iPads. They had a lot of incentives for doing well and also fun things every day, like backwards day, or crazy hair day. He has learned a lot and excelled in reading. I can't wait for him to start in fourth grade, just to see how he does in school now. It was a great experience and I can't wait for him to attend another lesson. He really would like to go back as well, which is the best!

    To see our sons' progress has been worth the time and cost we've put into this. My older son feels more confident in the classroom and has improved dramatically with reading comprehension. My younger son gets excited to go and earn more tokens. Little does he know that the tutoring he receives is helping him on several levels.

    It is convenient and close to our home. Also, the staff is very friendly and knowledgeable.  My children utilize the Center to improve their performance at school.  My daughter is currently using the Center to bring up her grade in Calculus. So far in 1 month she has raised it 1 letter grade, and is working on raising it to the next letter grade. The Sylvan Learning Center really does help!!!!

    The Director, Beth, is amazing. My child is much more confident in math because of this place and gets very good grades now. I love that I don't have to fight my child at home with math homework anymore. Math is now her favorite subject. Improvement does take time so don't expect an overnight change. Anyone who tells you different is lying. Highly recommend Sylvan.

    Sylvan of Westlake did a great job of helping my son boost his scores - he worked hard and got a full-ride scholarship to Alabama, will be going there in the fall.

    My daughter has been attending Sylvan for tutoring in HS Geometry. She has had excellent tutors. She does work better in a one on one situation and even though it cost more, she definitely felt more confident. The director is very nice and very accommodating to your needs. We plan to continue with Sylvan in the following school year as math has been a difficult subject for my daughter for many years.
