Tutoring Club Makes List of Top 10 New Franchises
Entrepreneur Magazine recognizes innovative tutoring company among most
successful educational franchises in the nation
In its annual ranking of U.S. franchise businesses, Entrepreneur Magazine has
ranked Tutoring Club as one of the top ten new franchises for 2004. The Las Vegas based company, which was founded in 1991 and began franchise
activities in 1999, was ranked 190 out of the top 500 franchise businesses
based on financial strength and stability, growth rate, and size of the
franchise system.
"I attribute the success of our organization to two things: the dedication of
each of our franchisees to our goal of creating successful learners, and the
quality of the programs we've created to achieve that goal," said Tutoring Club
founder and president, Lawrence H. Schwartz.
An industry veteran in learning enrichment programs, Mr. Schwartz created
Tutoring Club to develop individualized instruction programs in reading,
mathematics and writing for children in grades K-12. Tutoring Club is unique
among learning systems in not only its methodology, but in its guarantee to
raise each participating child's academic level in less time and at lower cost
than any other competing program.
"Nearly a decade of honing went into our products and systems before we created
our franchise structure," noted Mr. Schwartz. "Rather than simply provide
qualified instructors for tutoring, we apply highly specialized learning
programs to each child based on initial diagnostic assessments of their skills.
We then make sure that our efforts are integrated into both the home and school
environment through regular conferencing with parents and teachers."
There are currently 85 Tutoring Club franchises throughout the United States.
Over the past few years, the company has introduced its TutorAid series to
improve skills in core academic areas. These include Rx Reading, Amazing Math,
and The Write Way. Through its TutorUp program, Tutoring Club also delivers
individualized instruction in science, foreign language and high-school
mathematics, and teaches basic learning skills such as note taking, outlining,
time management and test preparation, including SAT instruction.
"It has been the success of our programs in creating better learners, more than
the 'franchise concept' itself, that has fueled the growth our organization has
experienced over the past five years," said Mr. Schwartz. "Parents all over the
country have been quick to recognize that helping their children to become
better learners is one of the best gifts they can give them - and our programs
have provided both parents and children the confidence that anyone can become a
successful learner."
