What is the Initial Assessment? Does my child need it?
Yes. The Insight™ Skills Assessment is a comprehensive evaluation that helps us identify your student’s specific academic strengths, current skill gaps, and individual learning needs. This is how we customize their personalized learning plan.
How long will the assessment last?
The assessment process typically takes about one hour to complete. Actual time may vary depending on your student’s pace and the number of subjects being assessed.

Is there anything we need to bring for sessions?
At Sylvan, we provide all materials needed for your student’s sessions. Students are welcome to bring a light snack, and water is available.

A 10-minute break is built into the schedule between sessions for snacks, restroom breaks, and other fun activities
