## Story

SPARTA, New Jersey - Sylvan Learning has opened its newest franchise location along Main Street in Sparta, New Jersey.

Sylvan Learning of Sparta is locally owned and operated by George Crescione. He runs several family-owned businesses, including a real estate acquisitions business, school portraits studio and a marketing company. It was through the real estate company that he found Sylvan Learning.

“I researched several businesses that might fill an open storefront in the heart of Sparta, and Sylvan was the perfect fit,” said George. “Not only does it complement my other businesses, but it also fills a glaring gap for a one-stop resource of supplemental education support in our community.”

As a former teacher, George was impressed with Sylvan’s advanced technology-based curriculum featuring trackable progress. “Those are key factors that will stand out to families in our community looking for the best possible support for their kids.”

Sylvan Learning serves as a key resource for students as they work to recover from pandemic-related learning loss. Sylvan’s proven tutoring approach and advanced technology-based curriculum are designed to give each student a personalized, trackable plan to achieve their educational goals.

“We’re proud to offer Sparta an all-in-one resource for students to access throughout their academic journey,” said Susan Valverde, Brand President of Sylvan. “We’re confident George will make a lasting impact in his community for generations to come.”
