Franchise Learning Center in Will County | $140K+ SDE
This business gives you the opportunity to make a difference in the lives of children and parents. Children who come into the center can be months to years behind academically. This negatively affects their emotions, confidence, and motivation. When we work with kids in our center, we are not only building them up academically, but we are also building them up emotionally and helping them regain their confidence and motivation. It is very fulfilling to see the change in our students over time and the relief and appreciation from the parents. Building on that mission, this well-established center offers personalized academic tutoring in Reading, Math, English, and Science for students from grades K–12, along with comprehensive test preparation for standardized exams including the SAT, ACT, HSPT (High School Placement Test), GED, and ASVAB. With both online and in-center options, the business provides flexible learning solutions for families and currently serves three school districts, including elementary, middle, and high schools. This turnkey operation operates out of approximately 2,000 square feet and includes two offices, five dedicated tutoring rooms, and a central teaching floor. It is supported by a team of 25 professional, college-educated instructors and is recognized for its strong community presence and outstanding reputation. The center’s customized, individualized approach—paired with ongoing follow-ups with teachers and families—creates a level of personalized attention that truly sets it apart. The current owner, who serves as Center Director, spends approximately 30 hours per week overseeing operations while focusing on relationships with the community, local schools, and nearby businesses. Day-to-day operations are well-established and run smoothly, making this an ideal opportunity for a buyer seeking a scalable platform with meaningful growth potential. Over time, the center has grown into a thriving learning environment with a collaborative and passionate team that treats both students and staff like extended family. The surrounding community and families are highly engaged and supportive, contributing to a positive and motivating atmosphere for continued student success. The tutoring industry itself is experiencing strong growth, estimated at approximately $5 billion today and projected to reach $18 billion by 2028 (Source: Grand View Research), offering compelling long-term upside for a new owner. The owner plans to transition into a corporate role following the sale and is highly motivated to ensure a successful handoff. With a background in business consulting, the owner is open to providing support during the transition and beyond. Seller financing may be available for a qualified buyer, and the business is SBA pre-qualified. This opportunity is well suited for an owner-operator or a partnership, with one partner overseeing the day-to-day operations. No prior educational background is required.
