My son struggled towards the end of 4th grade with specifically math …we made the decision to seek summertime tutoring to ensure he will be at grade level prior to starting 5th grade this year. I called and spoke with several other tutoring companies and even the teachers at his school and decided to go with Sylvan based on a family friends assessment with her daughter….after only 6 weeks he’s not only up to speed he’s also showing testing into 6th grade level. He’s told me he feels more confident and that the tutors showed him things that made the math make more sense to him…they did an eval…

Jan and her team has help my son tremendously in reading. He was struggling with reading in the 1st grade and we found out he was reading on a kindergarten level. He is now reading on a third grade level. He is in the 2nd grade. Highly recommend for all ages and subjects.

Have had my little one with Sylvan since February 2024, and what a drastic change! She was struggling in math and Sylvan got her up to where needs to be thru the summer. The schedules are flexible and the tutors (most who are current teachers) know their stuff and have incredible patience. So glad we joined.

Im very excited and happy with my daughters results. We started Sylvan just before thanksgiving break and have 7months progress on testing in 3 months. Sylvan was recommended to us by our neuropsychologist for my daughters learning disabilities and I have to say its made a huge difference! I can’t help but think if we would have had a diagnosis sooner we may not have had to retain her for 1st grade. I would recommend this program to anyone. We love the staff and the teaching staff.

We brought our daughter to Sylvan when she was falling behind in 1st grade. She was struggling with reading and math and lacked confidence. It has been the best investment we've made! One month in and we are seeing a major turn around - our daughter is no longer hesitating to read, she is way more confident in sounding out words and is beginning to get excited about reading, which is all we could hope for! I highly recommend investing in Sylvan. Ms. Jan is wonderful as is the entire team there. They know how to create an environment that motivates the kids. Thank you!!

In four weeks, my daughter’s progress was incredible. She went from a 1.7-3.4 in math and 2.1-2.5 in reading. The director and tutors listen to what your child’s needs are and do whatever is needed to have them succeed. On top of that, they are lovely people. I couldn’t be more grateful for everything they are doing for my daughter.

This has been the very best experience for my granddaughter. Sylvan has encouraged her love for learning and I believe the tools and techniques that are being taught will change her future. Thank you Sylvan St Pete.

My son went from a D in algebra to an A in a matter of 2 weeks! After his grades went up we did not re-enroll - BIG MISTAKE - his grade went right down to a C. The key for us was to keep in him enrolled. We are currently using their homework help tutoring. Its great - no more fights and trying to understand and help him with his ever increasingly difficult homework! I would highly recommend Sylvan. We will by trying their SAT prep over the summer

My experience has been seamless. Jan has been very helpful with all steps to get my son onboard and learning! My daughter did a block of hours when she was in Kindergarten and got caught up on many things for her age as she had been between 2 schools. Now my son is here and catching up on skills that he needs to complete 3rd Grade FSA's. I am so happy we came to Sylvan for tutoring. I would highly recommend them.
