Turnkey Gideon Math & Reading Center for Sale
A complete, operating Gideon Math & Reading Learning Center is available for purchase in Warminster, Pennsylvania, in Bucks County. This turnkey opportunity offers a faster path to owning a supplemental education business than starting a new center from scratch.
Established Bucks County Location
Located in Warminster (18974), the center serves local families and nearby communities, including Warrington, Warwick, Northampton, Ivyland, Doylestown, Newtown, Yardley, Richboro, Horsham, and Montgomeryville. The area’s median family household incomes range from approximately $134,198 to more than $208,767, supporting demand for after-school math and reading enrichment. Current tuition is $190 per month per subject or $340 per month for both.
The center is situated along the busy Street Road and York Road retail corridor, directly across from Costco. Nearby public, private, and parochial schools—including McDonald Elementary, Willow Dale Elementary, and Log College Middle School—serve the surrounding community.
The 1,400-square-foot space is designed for small-group instruction and independent learning. Rent is $2,400 per month, with the option to reduce costs by up to half through a shared-office arrangement.
A Faster Path to Ownership
Starting a new Gideon Math & Reading center typically takes 9–12 months or longer for site selection, lease negotiations, construction, permits, and student recruitment. A new center also requires an estimated initial investment of $167,060 to $315,700.
With this established center, a buyer can take over an existing operation and student roster, saving time and avoiding much of the expense and setup involved in launching from scratch.
Growth opportunities
This franchise currently generates nearly $5,000 per month in revenue and continues to receive monthly referrals with little to no marketing. I’m asking for $15,000 to cover the cost of the assets. I am willing to provide financing to the new owner. I’ve invested nearly $200,000 in the franchise and would love to see someone step in to keep it open for the families we serve. The initial franchise fee is $75,000, plus costs for build-out, furniture, and supplies. This is a great opportunity for someone to own a franchise without the financial burden of a start-up.
Owner's Day-to-Day Involvement
Gideon's operational model allows for flexible, balanced management. The franchisee oversees student progress, staff scheduling, intake assessments, and local community outreach in Bucks County. The current owner spends approximately 10–15 hours per week managing back-end operations and staff, relying on experienced lead instructors for daily session execution.

About Gideon Math & Reading
Gideon Math & Reading is a supplemental education franchise providing personalized math and reading instruction to K-12 students. The model is built around a self-paced mastery method: each child starts with a free evaluation, then works through Gideon’s proprietary step-by-step curriculum booklets, practicing daily and advancing only once a level is fully mastered. Instruction is handwriting-based rather than screen-based.
The brand is family-owned and founder-led, developed by the Coppedge family of educators in the early 2000s and franchising since 2012 from its corporate base in Coppell, Texas. Centers run in both retail and non-retail formats, each with a protected territory, and are typically open a few afternoons and one weekend morning per week. A named center director leads day-to-day instruction and operations on-site.
Gideon has grown to roughly 35 centers and reports having served around 35,000 students. As a member of the International Franchise Association, it positions itself as a focused, curriculum-driven alternative to larger tutoring brands, competing on individualized mastery rather than volume.
Franchisee Support
Franchisees train on Gideon's curriculum delivery, student assessment and center operations before opening, with the territory reserved during the training period. Ongoing support centers on the proprietary booklet curriculum, which is updated continuously, plus operational coaching and marketing help that includes a branded center web page, brochures and a Google Ad Search campaign run for every center. Buyers of an existing Gideon center should confirm what transfer training and curriculum-system access the franchisor provides to incoming owners and any retained staff.
Brand Accolades & Awards
Gideon Math & Reading was named to Franchise Business Review's Top 200 Franchises for 2026, a ranking driven largely by franchisee satisfaction surveys. The brand is a member of the International Franchise Association and runs a long-established corporate flagship center in Coppell, Texas. As a smaller, education-focused system, its strongest credibility signals are franchisee-satisfaction recognition and program reputation; for resale buyers, brand-level recognition should be weighed alongside the specific center's local reviews, parent referrals and community standing.
Industry / Market
Supplemental education is a resilient category, as families tend to protect spending on children's academic support even in downturns. The US private tutoring market is forecast to grow by about $32.4 billion between 2025 and 2030, an 11.3% annual rate (Technavio), driven by rising academic competition and demand for personalized, results-focused instruction. Demand is strongly local and tied to school catchments and household density, so for resale buyers a territory's demographics and enrollment base matter as much as national growth.
Ideal Owner
Gideon suits hands-on, education-minded operators rather than passive investors. The franchise agreement requires a named center director with a controlling interest who is on-site for most class hours, so the owner stays closely involved in instruction, staff oversight and parent relationships. Teaching or education experience helps but is not required, given the structured curriculum. The strongest fit is someone patient and process-driven who is comfortable coaching young students, managing a small staff and building trust with local families and schools.
