Ann
Teacher
Hi! I’m Ann Hagen-Rapsilber. I teach Beginning and Academic Reading and sometimes, writing and math. I’m a firm believer in Sylvan. I have taught at Sylvan for over 10 years. I started at the Fairview Heights location then, moved onto Edwardsville. What I enjoy most about Sylvan is the students that I work with. We have some wonderful kids here! Many students come in from other settings unsure of themselves but, when they leave Sylvan there is a renewed sense of accomplishment. I have seen numerous successes at Sylvan and that’s why I continue to be here. Sylvan is a place where kids can love learning again.
