Sylvan Learning Awards Territory to Educator in Texas

Sylvan Learning transferred ownership of its Katy, Texas, center to Anum Shabbir.

Shabbir taught elementary school in Pakistan before moving to the United States, where she worked in hospitality and sales for nearly two decades.

“Franchise ownership with Sylvan allows me to pursue my passion for education and entrepreneurship,” said Shabbir. “My experience and expertise will help grow this center that has already established a strong foundation in the Katy community.”

For more than four decades, Sylvan Learning has been producing proven results for students. Now, as students and educators nationwide work to close the gap from pandemic-related learning loss, its resources are in more demand than ever.

“The Katy center is in great hands with Anum,” said Jeff Stephenson, Vice President of Franchise Development at Sylvan. “We’re confident in her ability to carry on the legacy of this center, and we look forward to supporting her along the way.”
