My daughter has been going to Sylvan for almost a year. Our experience has been nothing short of amazing. Not only has my daughter's grades improved, but her confidence has as well. She is excelling and I know Sylvan played a big role. Thank you Angela and team!

The teachers are amazing, and work with the kids so well. My boy has always been excited to go, and even when he gets done. He always asks when he gets to go back. Even in the couple of months he has been there, we have already seen improvements in his learning. Could not recommend this place more. I'm glad we made the decision to bring our son here.

My daughter and I are so happy with Sylvan of Altoona. My daughter was on the edge of successful and now has gained the confidence to succeed in school. Angela is amazing to work with and my daughter loves attending. I would recommend Sylvan of Altoona 100%. I have regular contact with the office and regular meetings with Angela. I will keep my daughter in this program as long as I can. It has been a very positive game changer to make school positive and my daughter excited about school.

Angela and her team at Sylvan of Altoona are fantastic! One of my children was having a really tough school year as far as the subject matter, connecting with their teacher, and the suggested items for at home assistance were not helping. All of these things were causing my child and myself to become frustrated and it was taking a toll on my child's self confidence. We decided it was time to look into tutoring. We attempted to reach out to several local individuals and a nationwide service. I did not receive many responses to my calls and emails and the one that did was not going to be a fit…
