Customer Testimonials
I have been very happy with both the Personnel and tutoring services offered by Sylvan of Barrington / Lake Zurich. I appreciate the regularly scheduled status update meetings. We have been able to see the progress my son is making.
Ken does a great job with the team. He cares about the students and there are lots of flexible options to meet your child’s interests and needs.
Convenience, price, and tutoring approach
Staff is fantastic, very supportive and encouraging to my daughter! She has learned a lot not only about school work itself but building her confidence through them!
Seemed organized, any my grandson is looking forward to next year.
Individual attention paid to the students, great counselors.
My son likes the teachers and the incentive program they have
My daughter really enjoys it this far!
Great targeted approach to each child's needs. Kind and caring staff.
Kids are learning
Ken and team are always there to help. They are the best!
They take the time to explain more thouroughly the math problems and examples to my son on a more personal level than his school teacher would. He has more time to really understand the problems and different ways to complete them. Sometimes you just need that little extra push or an extra day or two longer on the subject to understand the chapter and that works wonders with him!

This is our second time with Sylvan and I was a bit hesitant because the first time was not a good experience. The tutor would get frustrated and just give my son the answer rather than helping him work through to solve the problems.
However, this time around at the location in Schaumburg it has been totally awesome. The staff have done all they can to properly assist my son in preparing for the ASVAB. When my son wasn’t paying attention, the Director took his the necessary measures to get him back on track. It has been a wonderful experience.
The Lake Zurich team is always looking to help the student out, especially to prep for exams, and they always try to find any time available for the student. They are genuinely happy to hear when a student did well too. And it’s nice that they know each student by name when they come in. They do a fantastic job! Our family is very happy with the Lake Zurich team!
