Sylvan Learning Centers reviews

Kept very busy, everyday was something different. Students, families and co workers (except management) made working there worth it. Enjoyed the "type" of work.

I have been with Sylvan for just shy of three years now and have experience working in a business setting for roughly 10 years. I can honestly say that this is one of the best jobs that I have had. There are not many for profit organizations that can offer you a fulfilling experience, one that allows you to grow professionally and support a noble mission. I have been very impressed by the transformation the organization has gone through since I first started. New competitors have emerged almost overnight (Kahn academy for example). However, Sylvan's switch to a digital curriculum in-center, while maintaining a focus on the individual has further instilled my confidence in the organization and Sylvan's leadership. At a corporate level, Sylvan is relatively small considering the number of franchisees that are in the system. One of the pros is that it is a close-knit organization that allows for open communication with the executive team. I also respect the fact that Sylvan does practice what it preaches in regard to community support. I have been involved with several blood drives here, community book drives and service projects where we have helped revamp damaged schools.
