Sylvan Learning of Goodyear offering free online camps this week
Extra help for students learning through video conferencing
Posted
Sylvan Learning of Goodyear is offering free, live mini camps for elementary, middle and high school students this week through Friday, April 24.
The camps are led by real in-home tutors through video conferencing, and will be recorded and posted in Sylvan Nation, a free online education portal with educational support tips, worksheets, a teacher resource section and educational videos, after the live airing. Each level (elementary, middle and high school) has three hours of new content across three classes.
In addition to typical school subjects like math, vocabulary and reading, students can also take yoga, resume writing and interview prep, poetry and more.
Sylvan Learning of Goodyear, a provider of personal learning for students in grades K-12, has pivoted to be exclusively online to continue providing solutions to families in need of educational support during coronavirus.
“It’s been a difficult time for families, in particular those with school-age children. The families who rely on Sylvan for their children’s supplemental education have had their educational lives turned upside down with the closure of many schools,” Sylvan Learning of Goodyear’s Claudia Honsberger stated in a news release.
“These families are looking for solutions that allow them to continue to learn at home and to also continue to receive the supplemental education they were receiving from Sylvan. We’ve quickly pivoted to online delivery and providing support to families and students to continue learning during this uncertain time.”
