When we started Sylvan, my daughter absolutely refused to talk to us about her math homework. Her school was saying she was showing an uncooperative attitude, but I knew it was because her foundational skills were lacking and she did not want to admit that it was beyond her. Last night she let me keep her on track as she worked through her assigned homework sheet. That would be triumph enough -- but even though it was challenging for her, I saw she was so much more confident. She was able to find which problems she'd already solved might serve as building blocks for harder problems, and she was open to the idea that if she stayed focused and thought through the more difficult problems, she just might figure them out. (Which she did!). Thank you Sylvan! Let's keep going!
