I enrolled my child at Sylvan hoping to get real academic support, but after months of sessions and paying $71 an hour, her progress actually declined. Her latest DIBELS school assessment came back lower than when she first started Sylvan, despite being told she had “mastered” certain skills. A reassessment outside of Sylvan confirmed she made very little improvement, which was extremely disappointing. The recent staffing changes also caused major issues. My child struggled to connect with tutors due to high turnover and even left sessions upset. She eventually told me a tutor was being mean to her, which was the final red flag. Between the lack of progress, inconsistent staffing, and my child’s emotional discomfort, I decided to withdraw her. I had high hopes for Sylvan, but the results and experience did not match what was promised.
