+Normalizers
+-----------
+
+There are several types of normalizers available::
+
+* The :class:`Symfony\\Component\\Serializer\\Normalizer\\GetSetMethodNormalizer`
+
+   This normalizer reads the content of the class by calling the "getters" (public
+   methods starting with "get"). It will denormalize data by calling the constructor
+   and the "setters" (public methods starting with "set").
+
+   Objects are serialized to a map of property names (method name stripped of the "get"
+   prefix and converted to lower case) to property values.
+
+* The :class:`Symfony\\Component\\Serializer\\Normalizer\\PropertyNormalizer`
+
+   .. versionadded:: 2.6
+       The :class:`Symfony\\Component\\Serializer\\Normalizer\\PropertyNormalizer`
+       class was introduced in Symfony 2.6.
+
+   This normalizer directly reads and writes public properties as well as
+   **private and protected** properties. Objects are serialized to a map of
+   property names to property values.
