Audrey and John Waterfield are excited to bring Sylvan Learning to Wilton after three years of planning. The couple each worked for the personal learning franchise in Albany and saw a need for the brand’s services north of the Clifton Park center location. The Wilton Sylvan Learning opened earlier in the month, and the Waterfields are looking forward to growing the brand.

“One of the biggest things we’re excited about is being able to have this place established,” Audrey said. “We have two little boys, four and two, and we’re so very excited to have them watch us build this from the ground up.”

After a recent report from the National Assessment of Education Progress showed that reading scores dropped to 1992 levels, more resources like Sylvan Learning are needed in communities to bring test scores back up. The Waterfields know that the key to reaching that goal is building their students' confidence so they can enjoy learning more.
