Center Director of local Sylvan Learning center Kathy Michel spoke with a Detroit news station to discuss how Sylvan Learning is helping students and parents with virtual learning.
Sylvan Learning Center Director Kathy Michel spoke with WXYZ, an ABC affiliate news station in Detroit about how her center is helping students stay on top of their studies during the transition to virtual learning. Michel specifically spoke on Sylvan Learning’s latest program, “School Support at Sylvan”, that allows parents to work from home while their child works with a tutor throughout the day through remote learning.
“By the very definition, remote learning involves a lack of connection,” Michel told WXYZ. “There needs to be a connection between another adult or with a teacher. I think the biggest complaint I hear is, ‘How can I do my job, while making sure my kid is doing their job?’”
Michel went on to explain that parents can’t do it all and need help during this time. She recommended supplemental help from either a professional service or an additional adult that can spend time with the students if the parents can’t.
