That's the reason Sara Yang, who worked for the US Dept. of Education for many years, has decided to open Sylvan Learning Center--not just for the good of her own children, but more than that, it is for her dream and passion! My daughter is struggling a little with Math. After taking Sylvan's assessment. The results clearly show her weaknesses that need to be improved. I enrolled her for Math lessons 2 times a week, and now she is sharing her thoughts about her first lesson: "I had the best time at Sylvan, the teacher is really nice and funny like my teacher at school. He taught me fractions that are really hard for me, but it's easier now. I'm glad Sylvan is open in Granite Bay" "

I cannot say enough great things about Sombrero Time…read more From the very first phone call I felt this was a very professionally run program. David explained their philosophy & curriculum, and made sure we were a good fit for what they offered- this is not just an after-school free play program. We were invited to sit in on a class, which we did. There is a fully printed & bound curriculum workbook that coincides with the daily lesson plans. They have their own printed posters & supplies (nothing is cheaply thrown together here). The teachers are topnotch bilingual & trained- which I personally appreciated as there are other programs that just think because someone speaks Spanish, that automatically qualifies them to teach. Not so. Most importantly is that my daughter enjoys going to Spanish. I was worried that she'd get burnt out or bored and that it would become pulling teeth to get her to go. NOT EVEN CLOSE! The curriculum is engaging & interesting, her teacher is responsive and encouraging, the class size is small and the children are friendly. We are 4 months in, and my daughter sings in Spanish, teaches ME Spanish words, translates material, talks to others and orders her own food at Mexican restaurants in Español. We feel very much welcomed & at home here. David & Ruth are some of the most sincere and inviting people you will meet. It has been worth it!

Sombrero Time is an excellent full immersion Spanish Language program for kids ages K-6 Grade. My…read moredaughter has been attending ST for 5 years and I am amazed at the Spanish she can speak, write, and understand. We recently went on a family trip to Costa Rica and she was interacting the the locals and acting as our interpreter the entire time. The structure in the ST classroom (full immersion, no English spoken) enables the kids to think in Spanish as they learn, rather than translate the English words into the Spanish words in their brains. The teachers are all native speakers which means the kids are learning proper accents and enunciation. The curriculum is tailored to the kids' level and is clearly communicated to the parents at the beginning of the year and throughout the year. There are also several presentations per year where the kids present on various subjects, as well as progress reports given to parents. Overall, a phenomenal program and I would highly recommend it.

I love this place. We've tried a lot of tutoring places (all the different chains you can think…read moreof!) and Rocklin's Tutoring Team is the BEST. The key difference is that they don't make your child fit into an existing program--they tailor a plan to fit your child's needs. Right down to pairing the right tutor with the child. And the tutors are brilliant. The owner takes a special interest in every child's academic needs. She is genuinely invested in my child's success. She introduced my younger daughter to a new way of looking at mythology that got her excited about learning! She helped my older daughter with conversational French. I can't imagine why anyone would go anywhere else just to pay higher prices for the same old generic approach.

After countless interviews and research, I discovered EES. From the beginning, Carri and her team took the time to truly understand my son. They built a personalized plan, and together, we made it happen. It has been a huge commitment--time-wise, financially, and emotionally--but it has absolutely paid off. My son can now read and write without breaking down. While he still struggles with grade-level chapter books, the fact that he can now engage with reading without a meltdown is a milestone we couldn't have imagined. I'm deeply grateful to Carri and her team for their patience, compassion, and unwavering support. If your child is struggling and not getting the help they need, do not wait. The longer you delay, the further behind your child can fall. There is hope--and there is help.

She accommodates for the child needs and life events in a way to keep the student engaged and motivated to learn.

I contacted several tutoring centers in Rocklin and Roseville when deciding the best option for him. The Tutoring Center was (by far) the most welcoming, professional, and genuinely interested in helping him.

My son liked the tutors and they were very patient with him (he can be a little resistant to writing). Over the months, he has improved significantly in his writing skills and confidence. We will definitely use them as our "go to" source for tutoring.

As part of a charter, we had tried various programs and several tutors, all with very little results. Luckily, I found her name on a list of vendors with our charter school over the summer and we met with her to have my son diagnosed with dyslexia and made a plan to start working together in the fall. Everything changed when my son started working with Marci. She started from the ground up, taught him to read the way that worked for him, filled in every hole in his reading education and gave me constant advice on how to work with him on writing. This is a strict program that you can't do halfway, but it WORKS. Further, she gave us guidance on getting my son tested for special ed, and supported us during a stressful IEP meeting. If you are serious about helping your dyslexic child, you cannot go wrong with Marci. My son loves her, comes out of appointments smiling and has a new confidence.
