Pros

Great educational methodology for students

Cons

The franchise lost it way many years ago and has never found it again. The result is that it is a brand name that has been steadily sinking against the every growing competition and most franchisees struggle as a result. The brand has also been sold on to numerous different corporate owners over the last 10-15 years and none of them have been able to turn things around. Instead they resort to squeezing the centre owners with higher franchise fees and operating & marketing costs and while delivering poorer new student opportunities.
