“After being at Huntington, I feel more confident. My ACT score went up 6 points, and my grades in school are better than ever. I have grown so much in school because of them.” — Mary R. (11th Grade) “After tutoring at Huntington, she is doing great in school. Her ACT score went from a 17 to a 23, and she’s not even finished with the program!” — Parent Karen R.
“I learned how to spell and read at Huntington. I learned ur, er, ir, ar, sh, th and ch at Huntington. I can now read Diary of a Wimpy Kid. I learned how to add numbers together. These were the things I learned at Huntington.“ — Gabe M. (1st Grade) “My first grade son has had a great experience with Huntington. When he entered the program, his reading skills were on a low Kindergarten level, but after a few months at Huntington, he started reading more fluently and his reading skills are now on par with a typical first grader. He is much happier and more confident, and he now enjoys reading! The amount of time he needs to complete his homework has also drastically decreased. We would highly recommend Huntington to other parents.” — Parent Amanda M. “My Huntington experience has been a good one. The teachers here helped me with study skills, math skills, and reading skills. Those skills improved all my grades. Without Huntington, I don’t know where I’d be in school.” — Jacob S. (10th Grade) “Huntington Learning Center has benefited my family in being a leader in reinforcing Jacob’s educational experience. Jacob went through HLC’s program which gave him the tools needed to study and understand various subjects. Jacob continues to attend HLC for daily studies and reinforcement with several subjects. Well qualified teachers are there to assist/guide if needed. We highly recommend HLC.” — Parent Carol S.
