## Story

Second generation Sylvan Learning Franchisee Alex Ho is opening his own center in Brightmoor, MI after taking over ownership at his parents' location in West Bloomfield.

The HUB Detroit reported that Alex's parents were one of the first sets of franchisees for Sylvan Learning in the 1980s and oversaw ownership at the West Bloomfield location for several decades. In 2012, when Alex's mother fell ill with cancer, he decided to move back home to Detroit and take over as the owner at the Sylvan Learning Center.

After experiencing great success at the Bloomfield location, Alex has signed on to bring a second Sylvan Learning to Brightmoor with an opening date projected for early 2019.

Alex told the HUB Detroit that Sylvan Learning's programs and tutoring options are set up with "perfect personalization" for each student.
