Don’t let your child’s learning stop just because summer starts Huntington Learning Center provides alternatives to parent who want to help their children avoid summertime regression and work on basic skills.Summer is an ideal time to finetune or improve skills. Without the pressure of typical school –year obligations – and seven or eight hours more free time each day for three months – many students are better able to reap the benefits of tutoring during the summer months. Your child is the focus. It’s not unfathomable that a child learns at a different pace or grasps concepts in a different manner might fall behind in a
class of 20 or 30 students. At Huntington, teachers work with students individually or in a small group of three or four. Individualized teaching methods help to get to the root of the problem. At Huntington, teachers perform an academic evaluation of each student before beginning instruction so that they can first understand the child’s strengths and weaknesses. Afterward, a program of instruction is customized for the child – one that will meet his or her precise needs. Student progress is carefully measured. Inevitably in a classroom full of children, it is difficult for one teacher
to closely monitor the progress of every student. We measure student development at regular intervals and keep parents well informed of your child’s achievement. Yet another advantage of working with Huntington is convenience. We offer flexible scheduling to help accommodate family’s schedules. Our goal is to give every child the best education possible and we work with families to make the process as easy and stress free as possible.
