Chyten Educational Services was founded in 1984 by Neil Chyten who believed that every child deserved an opportunity to reach their highest potential. Using customized programs for students based on their individual needs, the education franchise has provided test preparation and specialized tutoring services for the past 25 years and his franchise is one of the fastest growing supplemental educational businesses in America.
According to Neil Chyten, who serves as the company’s president, what sets his education program apart from similar franchises is Chyten brings a whole new style curriculum, individualized one on one tutoring by tutors who all have at least a masters degree and teaching experience.
“Our name has become synonymous with the word ‘excellence’ in the areas we serve,” says Chyten. “Having been exposed to many different educational programs, I am convinced that highly qualified and experienced teachers can make a real difference in students lives which is why we only employ tutors with a minimum of a master’s degree and who also have prior teaching experience.”
Chyten believes these standards for teachers give his franchise a competitive advantage over other education programs with lower standards for instructors, and the franchise is beginning to expand across the country as the demand for quality education services continues to grow.
Chyten Educational Services began offering its franchise in the fall of 2007 and has seen positive results from its program. The company is actively seeking new franchisees to share in their commitment to providing quality education programs.
“Chyten franchisees can take advantage of all the years of hard work we have put into developing the concept,” explains Chyten who also stresses he has the only franchise model of its kind in the education industry. “Having uniqueness is a key ingredient in selecting a franchise concept.”
Chyten also believes it is important for potential franchisees to find a concept that fits their personality and style. He says that good candidates for a Chyten franchise are those who possess good people skills, good communication skills, and individuals with a strong work ethic who have a belief in the value of education. “We look for people who have a real desire to give back and help others reach their true potential,” says Chyten.
Franchise fees for the Chyten concept cover all necessary startup needed for new franchise owners according to Chyten including site selection, lease negotiation, and training. Royalty fees are applied to offset the support costs once the franchisee is up and running.
The Chyten education franchise offers a third party financing program to cover leasehold improvements as well as some equipment. Franchise locations can typically be in business within 90 to 120 days.
