My son went to 3 years of private school for preschool and kindergarten, only to enter public 1st grade well behind what was expected for his years. Big shocker. I diligently reviewed Sylvan vs. Kumon vs. independent, and decided that Sylvan was the right way to go. We're only 1/2 way through the school year, and he's already at to above the rest of the class ... amazing! We will continue to use Sylvan through my son's education to assure he never falls behind - in fact to use it to further him into advancements on different subject matters. And the people are great there. He went from telling everyone he was 'stupid', to raising his hand in class to give answers. Thank you!
