Sylvan of Clifton Park has been very instrumental in giving my grandson confidence in math. He really has come a long way. The instructors and entire staff are caring and effective. I have to say he doesn’t even mind going to his sessions.

My 4th grader has been going to Sylvan for about a month now and is loving it. He fell a little behind last year during virtual learning and is now working to catch up to where he should be. Everyone there is great to work with and really patient and kind. They are great at communicating what is being worked on and the progress being made. We are confident that my son will be fully caught up this year. Sylvan also follows all safety and sanitary measures so we feel safe sending our child.

We had a great experience this school year with Sylvan of Clifton Park. We noticed right away that our son was struggling with 4th grade math and reached out to Audrey at Sylvan. She was very helpful with the process, spoke with us about our options and helped us pick a program best suited for our son Charlie. Once he started his tutoring, Adam was amazing in communicating with his teacher to coordinate study material for tests. We saw a huge improvement in his grades but also in his confidence. He felt so much better going into a test having worked with the tutors at Sylvan in the days leading up to it. It was a great experience overall!

If your child is struggling with academics, confidence, anxiety because they are having issues in school this is the place to be. I highly recommend the Sylvan family for your children. When my daughter started with Sylvan she was struggling and self conscious. Sylvan has stepped in and made her feel comfortable which is HUGE! Not only is she happy and confident, she is thriving. Nevaeh has been there for just a few short months but the incredible strides she is making already is all because of this amazing team. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for allowing us to be a part of the Sylvan family.

I have been a teacher at Sylvan for about a year now, and it is a fabulous place to work. When my high schooler struggled with his math class and we knew he needed a tutor, I looked no further than Sylvan! I had such confidence and faith in the teachers that work here, I knew it was the right place to send my son. His math grade has raised from Failing in November to a B only 5 months later in April. His grades are continuing to improve, as is his understanding and confidence- all thanks to the amazing teachers and staff at Sylvan. I would not hesitate to send any of my children to Sylvan in the future if they needed that but if support.

Our daughter is an A student at a competitive high school, and she took an SAT prep program offered by teachers at her school. Her scores were in the 500s, and we were very concerned, since she was looking at competitive schools. We went to Sylvan, and it was like night and day. Sylvan's program had great materials and instruction, 3 opportunities for SAT practice, meetings with the center director to go over the practice test results, and a website with still more opportunities for independent practice, including explanatory videos for each practice question. I'm a math teacher with 20+ years of experience, and I was impressed at how all-encompassing the program was. Sylvan gave my daughter everything she needed to fully prepare for the test, and it was clear that the staff cared about my daughter doing her very best.

My daughter embraced Sylvan's program, and her score went up more than 300 points! Our daughter now has scores that will make her competitive at the schools that she is considering. She will be taking the test again in October, and she'll be coming back to Sylvan for a few "refresher" instruction hours (access to the Sylvan website lasts for a year, so she has plenty of practice material). We couldn't be happier.

We have been going to Sylvan in Clifton Park for a while now and figured it was time to share our experience. The experience has been amazing. Adam and the rest of the team do a tremendous job! Sylvan provides our son with another teaching method he could not get at school to help increase our son’s success. The individualized plans bring out the best in our son and without Sylvan would not have made the progress he has. Lastly the remote teaching as a result of the pandemic has worked flawlessly and kept our son learning as the school system was figuring out how to adapt. Highly recommended.

My son was in first grade and reading at a beginning kindergarten level. He was missing basic skills, struggling in math because he could not read the word problems, and I was becoming concerned about his confidence. Since he has been going to Sylvan Learning Center he is like a new kid! He is now in second grade and very close to being at grade level for reading. The program at Sylvan is fun, engaging , and produces amazing results fast! The staff is personable, informative and easy to work with.
