Sylvan in Oakville has always been known for quality tutoring. Now they are better than ever with the launch of ‘Sylvan Edge’ programs and summer camps.
Sylvan Learning Edge classes include Lego Robotics, Coding and Math enrichment and are perfect as either a term at a time or as a Summer Camp option. They are designed for children from Grade 1 to Grade 7. Kids are very excited to participate in these programs as they have fun and creative elements such as building the Lego objectics and then making them move using w 'Drag & Drop’ coding program. Parents are equally excited to know that their child is learning some very important STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Math) skills and enjoying every miniute of it.
The fun your child will have today could be the foundation of a lucrative career tomorrow as STEM based employment is projected to be the fastest growing employment sectors for decades to come. Even if your child grows up to be a doctor or a banker or any other professional a knowledge of computer coding is projected to be of great value. Of course time at Sylvan is never wasted so if all that happens is that your child has fun and gets excited about learning, what parent wouldn't be happy with that.
Aside from the great new STEM programs, another exciting piece of news is is that Sylvan is also more affordable than ever. For example, Sylvan’s new Math Edge program is only $149/month. This new program is going to be extremely popular because for a low monthly fee each student gets two hours per week in a Sylvan self-directed Math program under the supervision of a Certified Ontario Teacher. Math Edge is a great option for families who want a Math Enrichment program at a great price and also for those parents who don’t feel their child needs one of Sylvan's more individualized Math programs.
One of the fastest growing areas of Sylvan’s business is in Early Literacy programs for students from JK- Grade 3. Sylvan sees this a a consequence of the new Full Day Kindergarten program with parents becoming more conscious of their child’s individual needs.
- Some parents feel that their child needs more than is being offered in the ‘Play Based Learning’ model and needs exposure to a more challenging learning environment.
- Some parents feel that their child is getting somewhat lost in the large classroom format and is not getting enough exposure to the fundamental academic building blocks that will lead to them learning to read and write at a suitable age.
Desmond Jordan, Executive Director of Sylvan in Oakville says that many parents come to Sylvan when they have tried one, two or even three of their competitors. He only wishes he could save them the time and money already spent. When parents call or walk into Sylvan in Oakville for the first time, they immmediately know there is something different.
Sylvan teaching staff are Ontario Certified and that the Education Directors, Jenn Heckman & Tara Koster are a font of knowledge. There are not too many parents could ask that they have not already heard before. More importantly they usually have an suitable answer too and for the majority of students they have comprehensive, individualized, effective and proven teaching solutions that get amazing results time after time.
