Tutoring by Subject

Study skills from Sylvan make a real difference.

Students' study skills and study habits can have a dramatic effect on their school performance. That's why Sylvan offers a program for students in grades four through twelve to learn new study skills and sharpen existing ones.

Sylvan's study skills curriculum uses a personal learning approach that considers your child's individual learning style and meets his unique needs. We teach study skills and techniques that will help your child pack more learning into less time, do better in the classroom and on tests, enjoy studying more, and gain confidence.

The Sylvan study skills program can help your child become a better student by approaching schoolwork with effective new strategies in these key areas:

Organization and time management, such as assignment and grade tracking, organization of papers and binders, study planning and goal setting
Note-taking, covering everything from listening well and following directions to managing and presenting information to practical note taking
Reading and studying, including using notes effectively, handling textbooks, researching and writing reports and learning-specific study techniques
Test-taking strategies such as showing how to approach multiple choice and essay tests and how to overcome anxiety

Sylvan's study skills tutors are trained and certified to emphasize skill- and confidence building and know that when your child feels less stressed and more confident towards schoolwork, his interest in learning increases. This allows your child to learn faster and more efficiently and to retain more information with greater accuracy.
