Customer Testimonials
They have helped me SO MUCH with both kids but especially my son. They have shown me things to help when I couldnt figure out how to. They communicated with the school, especially this past year, so much to show what he needs help in and how he's not as far behind as they think and that he just needs different methods of learning. They are a bit pricey BUT they are worth the help AND they make sure to let you know about the many different scholarships that may be available to help offset if not cover the entire tuition.
Our family would highly recommend Sylvan of New Bern. We noticed a huge change in the reading ability of our Autistic son. Many thanks to all who played a part in his success at Sylvan.

The teachers are doing an excellent job.. Amazing job as well from supporting staff
My daughter loves her tutor!
Our children started our multiple grade levels behind in language and math. We have seen huge improvements in our children’s confidence and academic ability since starting programs at Sylvan. We like the tailor made lessons and routine feedback.
I have both of my grandsons here. Both are needing tutoring with math, but I have one who works better one on one without all the distractions at school. We are only a few weeks in, so far so good. From getting them enrolled, scheduled & their time, we had been very pleased with Sylvan.
Loves the teachers and especially the tokens for prizes, starting to see improvement
We've been with Sylvan a year and the difference I've seen in my child's confidence in math is amazing, He's retaining knowledge and sometimes is the only one who knows how to do something in class because "he's done that in tutoring". I love knowing that I can send him in with his homework and he's not only going to come out with it finished but he's going to have the knowledge and understanding of the topic. Mrs. Sylvia is amazing she's attentive to the needs of the individual child and is willing to adjust when needed. Mr. Richard teaches on my son's level and he guides and encourages him in his math and tutoring. Worth every single penny. Can't put a price on an education.
Very positive. Looking forward to SAT test results in order to assess effectiveness
Silvia is amazing! Mr. Richard is awesome! Seem a huge difference in knowledge and growth in my sons math level!
The instructors have been amazing with my daughter. She has improved so much in her reading and math. Mrs Silvia is amazing and works to ensure her success.
The education plan is designed with my child in mind. When I ask if what he’s learning makes sense, he says yeah more than it used to.
Sylvan has been great for my youngest son. The Directors are great as well as the teachers.
Thanks to Mrs. Jones and Ms. Jackson for your hard work!!
So far so good. My kids are engaging more at home with reading and taking a better interest in school. Less fighting to get them to do things. It’s great. The teachers are amazing and it’s definitely worth the meeting bet a lot better than Kumon.

Troy is so helpful and friendly
I credit Sylvan Learning for my daughter’s improvement with reading and overall learning. She’s been able to apply what she learns and has become more comfortable about learning new things.
She loves going to her sessions and constantly talks about how much fun she has there. I see Sylvan Learning as my support system as Simone and I navigates her reading journey.
So professional and helpful. You can tell they really love to help the kids!
Our child has filled in gaps and is systematically moving through skills. We are seeing an increase in confidence and an overall improvement in grades.
Super informative and communicative. We feel very confident our child will thrive in this environment and reach the goals we have set based on their recommendations. Highly recommend!
My 5 year old daughter loves coming to Sylvan Learning. She’s excited to learn and improve her phonics. The staff have been so helpful and supportive to me and my daughter. She’s only been going for a little over a month, but I can see improvement.

It’s been a great experience. My daughter has learned so much. And the staff is wonderful. Mrs. Elise is a sweet, dedicated director who cares a lot about the kids, their confidence and success.
