I was tutored here for my SAT in math and in english and everyone here helped me prepare to feel confident and ready for my test day. They were all flexible with my schedule and tailored their plans to what I needed to improve on. I will keep Sylvan in mind if I need help on any other school work in the future! Thank you all so much!

We had great experience with Sylvan Learning of Pittsburgh while preparing our daughter for the SAT. The program was structured, focused, and tailored to her specific needs. The sessions provided targeted instruction and consistent feedback that helped her build both skills and confidence. Over the course of the program we saw clear, measurable improvement in her performance. Just as important, she felt much more comfortable with the format and pacing of the SAT by the time she sat for the exam. The instructors were professional, supportive, and attentive to her progress throughout the proces…

At 87 years of age I am bringing the second set of my grandchildren to sylvan Center. My first association was with a grandson who simply was failing in school. Sylvan took him 3 grades in 6 months and established the ground work for success in education for his life time. He took a break at at 40 will graduate this year with a BA in accounting and in one more year should add a BS in a medical field. The two now in Sylvan are of foreign national origin and are confronting language and cultural difficulties. They are presently moving ahead quickly. Sylvan pinpoints their deficiencies and corre…

We have going to Sylvan for reading comprehension and writing skills for 3 years. With the teachers assistance, my son has gained confidence and knowledge. We have had 3 tutors and they all have been outstanding and very patient with my son. I highly recommend Sylvan for your tutoring needs.

We have been with Sylvan since Nov. 2024 and couldn’t be happier with the progress we’ve seen in our son. He brought his grades up by the second 9 week report card, homework has been easier to get through with him and his general attitude towards schoolwork is better!! He doesn’t complain about going to his sessions and gets excited with the prize points he can earn working hard while there. Because of the great progress we’ve seen, we plan to keep up with sessions to set him up for success as he moves on to higher grades and harder schoolwork!
