Warning Sign: Does Not Enjoy Learning

If your child is struggling in school, the classroom is a scary place, not a joyful one. Each day your child faces the fear of being asked a question he can't answer, or the humiliation of knowing he's falling further and further behind. A child who does not enjoy learning probably has Skill Gaps—a weakness in fundamental skills. By uncovering and fixing Skill Gaps, Sylvan Online helps your child learn, and more importantly, rediscover the joy of learning.

Who doesn't remember what it feels like to be called on in class and be unable to answer—or give the wrong answer? Or worse, being called to the board and feeling stupid in front of the whole class. If your child has Skill Gaps, he faces fear and humiliation every time the teacher looks his way. No wonder he grows to hate school and dislike learning.

What's it like for a child who struggles with Skill Gaps? Imagine sitting down with a good book only to find sentences written in a language you don't understand. You might struggle for a while to fill in the missing pieces, but eventually you'd get frustrated and give up. How many books would YOU finish if you struggled with each page? This is what reading is like for a child with Gaps in reading comprehension and vocabulary. If your child can't understand what he's reading—can't follow the story—reading becomes a chore, not a joy.

A Learning Program Tailored To Your Child
With Sylvan Online's online tutoring, learning becomes joyful because we help your child succeed. Our Online Skills Assessment identifies your child's Skill Gaps. We hone in on these Skill Gaps. Then we create a learning program that breaks skills down into bite-sized "chunks" that your child can master. As your child gains skills and self-confidence, we pick up the pace until the Gaps are closed and your child truly knows his stuff!

Because the program is tailored to your child's strengths and weaknesses, it's not too easy or too hard. And it's never boring! It's at just the right level to challenge him and build success. As your child experiences success, he'll rediscover the joy of learning.
