The franchisee group that owns the Sylvan Learning Center in Maple Grove, MN was recently awarded as the highest revenue franchise in the Sylvan Learning system. The Maple Grove Voice recently spoke with Hillary and Sean Tilton, two of the location's owners, about the award and the Maple Grove Sylvan.

Sylvan Learning CEO John McAuliffe also spoke with the Maple Grove Voice about why the Tiltons and fellow owner Molly Ebers are great franchisees. Said McAuliffe, “They are the leaders in the franchisee community. People look up to them for guidance, best practices, and what are they doing right.”

The article also discusses the history of the Maple Grove center and highlights the positive effect the brand has on the community.

Said Sean Tilton,  “Sylvan helps students build confidence, success in the classroom. We find the results very rewarding. I think that separates Sylvan is that we are individual programs - really tailored to the needs of each specific student. The ongoing communication with parents and students, and school supplements the students education and their experience - leading to their success."
