My son has been attending Sylvan the past summer while school is out. He entered 4th grade with considerable confidence versus last year when he entered 3rd grade. The tutors he has had are amazing and smart. I have no regret enrolling him in this program. I think its beneficial and helpful especially in the Bellevue school district when the academics are more advanced. They have been very helpful in keeping his mind sharp and alert (and away from computer games)
It is a VERY good tutoring place. They helped me in math. Now when I got to school I am super confident and I am not shy anymore. Sylvan is a very good place.
Our daughter had some challenges in math coming after a year of at-home learning. She has been attending three times a week for the past few month, and is now doing much better at basic computation and building a solid foundation for more advanced work. Very happy we decided to send her to this center.Kelsey, the Center Director is also an excellent communicator - I never feel like Im out-of-the-loop on our daughters progress.
My daughter Bella loves this center! Kelsey, the Director here was great to work with and offered a lot of advice. The tutors are amazing. I was initially skeptical because my daughter hardly enjoyed any tutoring of reading. I was glad that I signed up the program here.
We really value this location’s dedication to serving kids in person! It had made a huge impact for both of my kids in just one month’s time, after our original Sylvan location was only hosting sessions via Zoom. Kelsey oversees this location and she provides excellent leadership and great communication and it’s much needed and much appreciated after a crazy year that left both of my kids academically behind. Highly recommend!
I had no experience with tutoring when I learned my 9 year old needed help in math and reading. I looked into and contacted a handful of tutoring centers. We chose Sylvan, because it felt like it was the best fit for him. Im glad we did. I love the progress Im seeing from him. He will be caught up in his classes in no time and will not have to repeat 3rd grade material or be held back in school.
Sylvan has helped our child become a more confident reader and stronger mathetician. The team has been encouraging and helped build his confidence. We are so glad we found Sylvan. Megan Tay
After initial 2 months, 3x/week, 1 hr/session, our daughter went from 2nd grade reading comprehension to 4th grade, and another 2 months she is at 5th/6th grade reading level. Worth every penny to save our family from all the home stress of trying to teach her.Our daughter did not thrive during remote learning due to COVID. Her STAR ratings dived in reading comprehension and plateaued in math, and we were at our wits end trying to decide if we should switch to private school.Before you start Sylvan does a full assessment and meeting to evaluate her areas of improvement are. Her learning is very systematic, for reading, there are specific skills she is taught, practice, and test... without her even knowing... before she goes on to the next skill.When asking what she learns, she practices many skills simultaneously for reading. Now she is working on writing, which is progressing.*** Childs perspective: PROS: nice teachers, fun games at end of sessions, cool prizes (Slime, DIY light box, pencils). CONS: Some of the prizes are over valued ( ie blue pom pom was 50 tokens, or 500 tokens for $10 Amazon gift card).Tokens are based on skills achieved. Our daughter got lots of tokens with her reading comprehension, but with writing, ability to accrue tokens have been harder.*** Director Kelsey and Zachary were wonderful and communication is/was clear with assessments, sessions left, progress and tips. We meet with a director monthly. Zachary has since left. Our new director is adequate.*** Flexibility: you can do in-person vs remote. With ease of switching. Each tutor has max of 3 students ( per my daughter)*** CONS: usage of sessions is a bit confusing in the beginning. If you set up 2x/week, you are committed using 8 sessions for the month. You can reschedule, but if you skip the course, you lose the course.*** Value: Relative. I find it expensive, $49/session, purchasing 160 sessions = $8624 after taxes. Though it has been worth it with helping our daughter get caught up and now exceed her grade., and 5 months later she is only half way through her sessions.***Location: Convenient to due errands during the hour shes in session. Lots of parking, though spaces are compact.
Sylvan in Factoria has been a lifeline for my son who has slowly slipped behind his peers, especially during the pandemic. Sylvan identifies his needs, provides excellent feedback on his progress and offers constant communication with parents. Its nice to know we are in good hands at Sylvan Factoria!
Sylvan is really helping my son gain confidence in reading. The tutors are great and very helpful.
My kids and I like Sylvan in Bellevue (across the street from Factoria Mall). I would recommend it to my friends.
This Sylvan location does excellent work! Their staff, from management to instructors, is wonderful, intelligent, and works patiently with students. The curriculum is effective and their evaluations are insightful. We couldn’t be happier with their performance!
Great staff! Sebastian looks forward to attending his tutoring session everytime. And not to mention, he has learned so much and is ahead in regards to what he’s learning in class.
Before Sylvan, math homework was always a struggle that ended in tears for both me and my son. His grades were poor and he had trouble paying attention in class. Hes been with Sylvan for over a year. Hes getting an A in math now. His tutor is patient and positive, and not only helps my son with his homework, but is helping him understand concepts that before he had trouble mastering. If your child is struggling in school or with homework, Id HIGHLY recommend Sylvan.
We decided to enroll him in Sylvan, because after his evaluation we realized that the teachers not only look into the academic, they also look into my son’s characters to help him motivated in study.I can see his improvements every month and always happy with the class.He is a 3rd grader now and always in advance group in school. Thanks to Kelsey, who always listens to my concerns and communicates with me.
Very positive and improved results with school work. Great flexibility with schedules.
Iris and Sheryl are studing here, it’s amazing
The staff are very warm and welcoming to kids. Our child loves going to learn which is a huge bonus! Zach is wonderful and spent lots of time answering all of our questions. So far our experience there has been extremely positive.Update: Our son has been going to Sylvan for 7 months now and we are very pleased with his progress. Not only is he improving academically but his self confidence has dramatically gone up. He enjoys all of his tutors and is always eager to run in the door. We get monthly updates on his progress and they do a great job of addressing any of our concerns. This has been such a tough year dealing with virtual school, if he was not going to Sylvan he would be so far behind. Sylvan has been a life saver! We couldnt be more pleased.
Very good experience. Great value to kids!! Highly recommended.
Sylvan at Bellevue has been a great, flexible resource for my middle and high school kids during this pandemic. The director there is super knowledgeable and keeps the parents up to date. I love their tailored approach to learning.
Sylvan Is Great and Useful for my 8 year old kid, it helped him pass second grade, and I will keep continuing with Sylvan so my son can get better and better in English and math. They are professional and the team is very nice. I recommend it to any kid who struggles and needs help.
After carefully researching the options to enhance my child’s education, I chose Sylvan of Bellevue. While there are two in equal distance from my home, I chose Bellevue after reading the Teacher’s Bio’s and consulting with Kelsey, the Center Director. The teachers are not only extremely qualified to teach, they are active outside their homes which is important to us as they will have an influence on my child. Kelsey spent time getting to know my son to make sure his teachers are a good fit. I highly recommend Campbell, Aaron and Edara. They not only meet, they exceed our high expectations.
We started Sylvan earlier this year in Feb to help my younger son get caught up in reading. With the pandemic hitting, Sylvan has been a tremendous resource. The switch to virtual has been even more impactful. So much so, our oldest is now getting help. I really appreciate the data driven approach with the assessment as well as the time Kelsey and staff give to the parents (we meet once a month to track progress). Most importantly were really seeing a difference in the boys, academically but also their attitude toward school work. I could not recommend Sylvan more!
My son attends Sylvan 3 hours per week. Hes in a challenging program at school and its been extra challenging for him. Sylvan has helped him get organized and also helped him with the curriculum. My son seems to like the staff there and I can see results. Its not cheap, but after looking at private tutors too I realized tutoring in general is not cheap. Kelsey, the manager there, is outstanding for me to work with and discuss ways to help with the school work. She really knows my son well and I truly believe she is invested in his success.
The staff is so nice and helped my daughter a lot.
We enrolled my son in Sylvan of Bellevue for help with reading as he was below grade level. The teachers were wonderful! He is now an avid reader and considers it one of his favorite subjects!
The staff at Sylvan is amazing. They are very attentive and caring—and really focus on helping your child succeed. I’m very grateful for the additional help my daughter has received and the progress she has made.01/2021-update!! My daughter continues to thrive at school with the help of all the instructors at Sylvan. Despite the circumstances we are in with COVID, Sylvan meets the challenges with great understanding and accommodations.
The director excelled in preparing a study plan for my daughter’s university application process during high school. Not only that, but the instructors are well-experienced and professional in their teaching areas. Sylvan is able to pinpoint specific areas that are in need of improvement after taking a short diagnosis test. They will then teach my daughter specifically how to improve and increase their grades.
My daughter is really excited about learning and getting ahead. She is working on reading and next math. Kelsie the director is really awesome and gave me a full picture of what my daughter needs to be successful. She has not been tested after the program, but I already can see her engagement at school. I really recommend Sylvan Learning Bellevue if you are looking for support for your child learning experience.
My daughter attends Sylvan of Bellevue and has had a wonderful experience there. She has struggled with reading and had low self-esteem because of it. Since attending Sylvan she feels more confident and successful. The instructors and staff are kind, patient and encouraging. I love the monthly progress check-ins with Hayley (& Marissa). They always give me tips on how to support my daughter at home. Minni is amazing at helping me schedule our sessions around our busy life.
Both of my kids are attending Sylvan Learning Center in Bellevue. My daughter has a good learning experience with Sylvan Learning Centers where she receives tutoring. They are extremely helpful and I am extremely grateful. I have already recommended Sylvan and I definitely will recommend Sylvan further.
Professional. Friendly staff. Good with kids. Kind and understanding. Caters to each kids’ age. Highly recommended.
Brought my GPAs from a 2.5 to a 3.7! Would recommend a 100%
Weve been using Sylvan at this location for years now. It is such a great advantage to get high-quality tutoring for our son anytime we need it. Unlike the classroom at school, this is where our son can receive individualized instruction that ensures he understands the subject matter and knows how to approach homework and testing for success. I dont have to be an expert on school subjects, and I dont have to have a nightly struggle trying to hold my son accountable for school performance. We have a partner in the tutors and team leaders. In addition to excellent tutoring, Sylvan is an advocate for our sons learning and performance, talking to his teachers and monitoring his grades with us. If raising kids takes a village, youll want these fine people in your community for sure.
I have been sending my kids here for at least five years. I truly believe in their program and they have been a great asset in assisting my kids thru the years.
My kids have been going to Sylvan for 4 years and Sylvan continues to be very valuable to all three of them. They get homework help beyond what I can provide, ACT/SAT prep, and structured learning in academic areas where they need more support than can be given at school. My kids like that Sylvan can teach just like my teacher does because they have the districts curriculum to work from. Its the best tutoring option we have found.
Sylvan Learning Center of Bellevue has a positive, kind and warm environment! Every staff member genuinely cares about each and every student’s success & well being.
Our daughter has really enjoyed going to Sylvan and is excelling! Highly recommend!
Great staff and effective services! My daughter has moved up 2 whole grades since we started! I Highly recommend this program.
We love Kelsey, the Director. She is sweet, knowledgeable, approachable, flexible and I feel like they really have gotten to know our children, not only what they are learning, but how they learn best. My kids love going, they have either liked or loved all of the tutors! I feel like they will start the school year so much more confident.
The staff (especially Minnie) and Kelsey (director) are so friendly and caring. They make learning for my kid challenging and fun. She enjoys learning new study skills and feels more confident with her classes.
It really helps me with math even if I’m done for the day we play games and the give us an IPad to do some math problems in an app called something and I really like the place if your kid is struggling with math or anything you should really go there!!
Really good and nice staff and I am learning a lot.
Our son loves coming to this center. The environment and staff are super friendly. It certainly makes him feel fun to be here and learn. We definitely see huge phonics improvement from 6 months ago.
Fantastic learning environment, extremely professional.
This is the second quarter I will have been going to Sylvan of Bellevue. I’m a sophomore in college and I still find it super fun and helpful.
Sylvan Learning of Bellevue is a wonderful tutoring environment. The teachers and directors put a tremendous amount of care and detail into each student; they truly want each child to achieve their highest potential and, working alongside parents, do everything possible to help each child do just that!
The staff at Sylvan have been amazing. My son has shown growth and his self esteem along with his grades have improved. Thank you to the Sylvan staff.
Sylvan of Bellevue is fantastic to work with. They created a personalized plan for my son and modified as we went along. The tutors are amazing to work with and have really helped my son.
At the start, I thought I would hate math classes and not learn anything, but after each day, I find myself enjoying math more and more and i really has helped me learn more about math and help me become more comfortable and confident in math.
My son loves coming to this place, he is showing improvement in school. Kelsey and Minnie are great help in any scheduling problems.
Kind teachers and well-organized support staff!
