## Story

**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.**
