Grade Math Programs is one of the best available franchising opportunities in the supplementary education market. The franchise opportunity was designed with a single purpose: to give children from Primary to Grade 10 the basic skills to meet and exceed the real life expectations of the Ontario math curriculum. According to recent studies, demand for supplemental education programs will continue to grow over the next decade and beyond, making this an ideal time for you to become a Grade Math franchisee! Supplementary education is a multi-million dollar (and growing) market. Over the past three years, consumer spending on tutoring has increased seven to ten percent annually. Canadians understand that they must look beyond the public and private school systems if they want the best educational opportunities for their children. As the franchise owner, you will operate Grade Math primarily from home, where most of your administration, marketing and sales will happen. Twice weekly, franchisees set up their Grade Math centre in a local community space for approximately two hours per night. Children will visit your centre at least once per week and spend 15 minutes each night in order to gain the full benefits of the Grade Math Programs. Parents and children alike quickly see results. Grade Math not only gives children the confidence to do math with ease, but also directly assists in improving their grade levels at school. The franchise cost is a small investment which can mean great success for both you and your students.
