More details to this question:
I signed an agreement with my employee that if I left before 4 years, I would pay back the tuition they reimbursed me. 2 years later I started having issues with my supervisor after the business was sold. She was verbally bulling me and nothing was changing so I searched for another job. A week later I had an offer and took it. If it were not for the way I was treated, I wouldn't have looked for another job. Most of the amount that was paid, was also reported on my w-2 as wages. I had to pay the company for the taxes on this amount and report this amount on my personal taxes as wages. Do I have a good argument to avoid paying the company back, or should I set up a payment plan with them?

This is a question of contract law, so it would depend upon the terms of your agreement. If you don't have an out (which I don't think they would likely provide an out clause for what you described, then you breached the agreement.
Best of luck
