Huntington Learning Center exists to give every student the best education possible. Since 1977, Huntington Learning Center has grown to have approximately 300 locations nationwide.

By taking a comprehensive approach to one-on-one tutoring, we deliver results that not only outperform the rest of the competition, but more importantly, empower our students to achieve their goals. This is why Huntington Learning Center is the highest grossing tutoring franchise and why our average 2019 center revenue is 29% higher than that of the competition*.
How much does it cost?
The total investment to open a new Huntington Learning Center ranges from $148,017 to $263,072. The size of the investment depends on the location, size of the center and a number of other variables. Our experienced real estate team will help you secure the best possible location and negotiate with your landlord for the best possible lease agreement.
