You were very quick to find a tutor to come to my home and the person you sent was extremely helpful. I saw improvements within the first couple weeks.
Thank you so much!
Sylvan works with my schedule and are very flexible with the hours. They have wipes my son with Geometry a lot. He went from a C to an A. Thank you for a job well done.
Able to meet our needs in a timely fashion. Flexible schedule.
Yes. Our son Matthew feels confident in school because of what he is developing at his tutoring sessions in Math and English at Sylvan. He looks forward to spending time at Sylvan and in turn, he also looks forward to going to school and encountering new lessons. He does get concerned about having a lot of homework and extra practice outside of School and Sylvan, but he is not overwhelmed by it because he understands how to handle the work. I also really appreciate the ability of Sylvan to assist with homework and SAT testing. This is really great because it demonstrates how flexible Sylvan is which can really help out any kid during their educational career. I would recommend Sylvan to any parent.
Great staff and knowledgeable instructors!
Everyone is wonderful and helpful. I am very happy to say that I am pleasantly surprised with the amount of progress that my son has shown in just a short amount of time! He loves his tutor and can't wait to see her! I regret that we didn't start sooner.
The personal connection to get help
financially. Compassionate in getting the help for your student.
You were able to offer a customized, flexible schedule. All the tutors were able to help my daughter reach her academic goal for tutoring.
I like the positive reinforcement and rewards to boost self confidence.
The staff are very friendly and my three girls love it. It is a place where they can get extra help with school and be in a comfortable environment
Very friendly tutors and owners. Always willing to make changes to best fit the learning needs of your child. Great place to come whether you are looking for private tutoring for school (reading, writing, math) or PSAT tutoring. etc. We used Sylvan for reading/writing. I chose Sylvan over Kumon do to the instruction that you receive at Sylvan. Just depends on your child's needs though. We love the regular tutors that we go to and the interaction that they bring! My kids always come out happy with a smile at the end of their lessons. Great location, being at Kahala Mall. Very convenient with easy parking. I would definitely recommend Kahala Sylvan for any academic needs.

Mahalo!!!
From Honolulu Family magazine and past experience.
Helped my children boost their skills to perform well on the SAT exam.
Caring efficient. My girls love their time there. The teachers really connect with the kids and use techniques that ensure understanding.
Not enough feedback. Too much time spent doing activity on the iPad, not enough tutor interaction.
My son received excellent SAT prep from Sylvan. Brought up his scores tremendously
