Sylvan Learning adding locations in Houston

Sylvan Learning, a tutoring company based in Maryland, is expanding in the Houston market with four new centers and two new satellite sites to open within two years.

Though the Texas market overall is growing for the company, there has been more franchisee interest coming out of Houston, said Georgia Chasen, senior director of franchise development.
