Class 101 Tutoring & College Prep Business – Chattanooga, TN
Business Description
This Class 101 franchise location has served Chattanooga, TN families since 2019, helping high school students navigate the college search, test prep, admissions, essays, and financial aid process. The business currently supports students, with strong one-to-one and group pricing options. The center holds a 5.0-star reputation online, with parents consistently praising attentive, hands-on guidance — from maintaining academic performance and hitting test-score goals to helping students get accepted to their top-choice schools and thrive once there. Chattanooga's affluent, education-focused community — home to established private and boarding schools — provides a strong customer base, and the business has built meaningful traction in the growing homeschool market, with active local marketing in local parent and homeschool community groups. With the current owner retiring, this is a turnkey opportunity for a new owner — whether an education-minded entrepreneur or someone seeking an engaging, flexible "encore career" business — to step into an established brand, proven systems, and a loyal client base built on real student outcomes.
