## Story

Sylvan Learning has opened its permanent location at 1050 S. Preston Road, #116 in the Celina Town Center shopping center after serving students in a temporary center for the last several months.

Sylvan Learning of Celina is locally owned by Shanna and Corey Miller, a husband-and-wife duo who grew up and reside in the local community. Shanna is an educator with experience teaching secondary science in the Frisco Independent School District for more than a decade.

“We’re committed to helping students establish a strong educational foundation because they are the future of our tight-knit community,” said Shanna. “As a former teacher, I knew there was a desperate need for tutoring support right here in Celina. Corey and I felt a responsibility and calling to provide that resource, and we’re thrilled to finally open the doors in our new location.”

Sylvan Learning serves as a 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 open our doors in the permanent Celina location and provide a one-stop, all-subject resource to support students through every stage of their academic journey,” said John McAuliffe, CEO of Sylvan. “Whether a student needs help catching up or advancing their skillset, Sylvan is here to help, and there is no one better to lead this center than the Millers.”
