Sylvan Learning’s Wilmington Location Featured in WilmingtonBiz

Sylvan Learning franchisee and former public school teacher Amanda Cochran spoke with WilmingtonBiz about her recent acquisition of the Wilmington Sylvan Learning location.

Cochran, already a Sylvan franchisee with a location in Jacksonville, NC, told WIlmingtonBiz that she didn’t set out to find a second location, but saw compelling growth potential in the Wilmington franchise and believed it could be just as successful as her Jacksonville location.

"It was not something I was pursuing. I was very content with just having one center in Jacksonville, but after coming and seeing the center, I just felt like we've been very successful in Jacksonville and we could bring the Wilmington center to that same level of success," Cochran said. "I believe in Sylvan; I believe in what we do and helping children become academically successful.

Cochran says the locations are now back to in-person instruction and demand is high, as parents have seen their children struggling to learn from home.
