Review content:
My experience at sylvan: I was once a student being tutored at sylvan learning center about 2 years ago for 11th grade math. I can honestly say that the tutors are inexperienced, some of them have no passion for teaching and don't take you seriously. They baby you with those tokens when all you want to do is learn and actually pass your class. I came to sylvan because i was failing junior year geometry because i had a really bad teacher who couldn't teach, and they were told specifically by my parents what i needed help in, and they gave me an exam with addition and subtraction and multiplication and fractions....with only a few questions in more advanced geometry ...which is what i was learning in school. So from that they figured that i needed tutoring and i was behind my grade level..which was total bs. Anyway i did need help and my parents were eager to sign the contract in hopes that my grades will rise. As i began my tutoring classes...i noticed that they gave me these packages with simple multiplication and division....i don't know why they gave me that and i told the tutor, he told me that i needed to work on my division because i did bad on the test in this area (bs). Only after about 20 tutoring classes did they actually start helping me out with what i had problems with in school....and because we didn't do this earlier, i had failed a bunch of tests in geometry while i was doing division and addition. hated that room so much. it was depressing with cheap carpets and gray walls every time i walked inside this building on queens blvd in rego park. i just wanted to run out because this wasn't helping me and it was a depressing atmosphere. So in the end. i ended up with a 65 as my average in geometry and my parents ended up with about $10,000 less in their bank account. I sometimes think about this and blame myself, but i didn't know the lessons cost so much, and we are a low middle class family so this took was hard on us all. i had more to say but no room
Pros: NONE!
Cons: Inexperienced tutors, get ready to shell out thousands of dollars,
