Sylvan Learning of Downtown Brooklyn - Brooklyn, New York

Adela G

My daughter began having trouble in math when the curriculum was changed in September 2012. It left her feeling unable to succeed where she had previously been among the top students. Additionally, because of her medical issues she has missed a lot of classes. My daughter began tutoring at Sylvan in February 2013. By the next marking period her grades had improved dramatically.

I am grateful that Sylvan has given my daughter her confidence back. She is back among the top students in her grade. She has just taken the Regents for Math. She is confident that she will receive a good grade on that as well.

I would recommend Sylvan Downtown Brooklyn without any hesitation.

If your child is having academic problems, and needs help, don't hesitate to give Sylvan Learning Center of Downtown Brooklyn a call. I even received positive feedback from parents in the waiting area, while my son was taking his assessment. tests! I was very concerned about my son because he was below his grade level. Sylvan helped to turn that around! Previously I had a tutor for my son, but the tutor didn't/couldn't give my son what he actually needed. My son is very comfortable at Sylvan, and the staff is pleasant and helpful. I receive updates on his progress and they are working in conjunction with his teachers to keep him on track. I really can't complain about the price because when I break it down per hour, it is the same price I was paying for his previous tutor without the results that I am receiving., I would definitely recommend Sylvan Learning Center in Downtown Brooklyn!

It is my pleasure to write a review for Sylvan Learning Center, located on Montague Street in Brooklyn. My grand-daughter came to this country from England in September 2012. She entered the 8th grade, and immediately met challenges, due to the differences between the American vs. English curricula. She was most challenged by mathematics. When she tested at her new school in September, she was only at the 5th grade level in math. We enrolled her at Sylvan in February, 2013. After a few months, we saw a great improvement, not only in mathematics, but in all her subjects. As of May, 2013, my grand-daughter is passing every subject, when she had previously failed each one of them. Her self-esteem improved to such an extent that she began to believe that she could succeed in spite of the obstacles and challenges. Our family believes that the caring nature of the Sylvan tutors and the structure of the program as a whole helped lead to this improvement. Thank you, Sylvan!

I called Sylvan for tutoring assistance to help me pass the math portion of my NYS Teaching Certification exams. I was a little embarrassed due to my age. However, I was treated with respect and no judgement was made about my situation. The staff at this location was phenomenal and Benny is the best tutor. Needless to say, my exam score exceeded the passing score and I will forever be grateful for Sylvan's assistance!!!!!
