"Alex started with our Academic Reading program in October 2007. Since then, he has completed a progress assessment, in which he has shown over one grade level gain in his vocabulary and comprehension skills. Mom has shared with us that Alex now shows a greater interest in reading, both at home and at school. The teachers at school have also seen a great improvement in his spelling skills, and overall reading comprehension. Alex feels that he is a much more confident and successful student."

"Josh used to come home from school, go right up to his room and throw on his headphones. Now he shares his day with me and it's all because of Sylvan's help. The instructors helped him master the learning skills he needed."
-Josh's Mom "My refrigerator used to be covered with my son's schoolwork. But when he got older it all stopped. That was until about a month ago. I went to the kitchen and there it was, a giant red 'A' looking right at me. I have Sylvan to thank."

"Lauren used to love doing her homework. As she got older though, she became more frustrated with her workload. Lauren's a good student, but she couldn't imagine herself succeeding. Then one night she handed me her completed work with a big smile. Sylvan gave Lauren her confidence back."
-Lauren's Dad
"Hunter's grades were slipping and I could tell he felt upset with himself. Now, his grades have improved and he feels great about school, and it's all because of Sylvan's help."
