What You Are Saying...
Short Time, Great Progress!
"I was very surprised at the short time it took to move my son up one grade level. I couldn't believe 36 hours could accomplish so much. I'm a definite fan of Sylvan and highly recommend Sylvan to anyone who will listen."
- Lora, Mother of a North Knoxville Sixth Grader
He has finally come to believe he is not stupid...
"I am at a loss for words in expressing my deep appreciation for all
[Sylvan] did for Caleb. How do you thank someone for saving your child
from sure disaster? [Sylvan] did so much more than keep Caleb at grade
level, and better. [Sylvan] helped him find confidence and refused to
let him be beaten by his attention problems and others' inability to
meet his needs. He has finally come to believe he is not stupid..."

A Bright Future Ahead...
"Our son was having a lot of trouble in school. He was in danger of
failing for the second time. It was a constant fight to get him to do
anything. This caused us much anguish because we felt that we had run
out of options, yet we refused to give up on him. We checked out several
different programs and decided to try Sylvan. Our son started going
to Sylvan two nights a week. He did not fight going, which frankly,
surprised us. He even beamed with pride and took great pleasure in
showing us the completion certificates. We could also see the
effects in his school work and attitude. During these past six
months the people at Sylvan have kept us informed and made us feel
a part of the process. His work isn´t done yet, but the improvement
has been so dramatic that we would say Sylvan may not have
saved his life, but it sure looks like they saved his future."
- Jim and Brenda, parents of an 8th grader
Upbeat and Positive Attitude!
"The thing I like about Sylvan is the upbeat and positive attitude
that all the teachers have. There is no yelling and tension like there
is sometimes in school. My child seems to really do better in this type
of environment. She has commented several times that she would like to
come to Sylvan instead of school. We are very pleased with the staff and facility."
- Buffy, Parent of a North Knoxville 3rd grade student
Sylvan is the absolute best investment!
"Sylvan is the absolute best investment we could have made in Timmy's education and in his future! The groundwork Sylvan has laid will yield effects that are never-ending and will follow him into college and beyond. Timmy now says that he is going to be a History Professor when he grows up. Thanks to Sylvan, he has the confidence and the skills to achieve this dream. We are thrilled with his progress and with the staff at the Halls' Sylvan location. Kudos!!!"
- April, mother of a North Knoxville 5th grader
