Huntington Leaning Center was quick and responsive when I initially reached out. In addition, they seemed very well connected to their tutors who are equally prompt and responsive. Payment and coordination of time and scheduling is easy and seamless. I appreciate that they provide 1 on 1 for my son who have difficulties with reading and math and within few months, I already see some great improvement. My son automatically clicked in with his tutors and felt at ease. We’re looking forward to a continued excellent experience with Huntington.
We had great experience with Huntington last year for preparing the high school application. The staff set up detailed schedule and multiple milestones during the three months preparation time to cover the key areas. The teachers are super experienced and patient and my daughter really gained the confidence during those hours of practice before the exam. They closely monitored the progress and communicated with parents on time after each mock test. In addition, Huntington also provided complimentary mock interview with my daughter which was really helpful for her to understand the process and how to prepare the answers for the most popular questions before the interview. Lastly unlike most of other learning centers which only focus on academic goals, Huntington really put their effort to know their students and support their extracurricular activity. A few times we had to reschedule the class due to the conflict with volleyball practice, Alina always tried her best to make it happen.We really appreciated all the help from Huntington and in the end my daughter successfully got offers for several private high schools.
*** Id like to THANK ALL Huntington staff, Tony, Emily and teacher Nick! Theyve all helped me overcome some of the hardest learning issues Ive had for years, specifically with math. Huntington puts their students first regardless of age! I would highly recommend anyone to attend their school! Thank You All Again!!! ****
Huntington is amazing! I was confused on how to prepare for the hspt and they helped me so much on all the parts of the test! Thank you guys so much :)
I’ve been really impressed with the results from Huntington! The management team and the teachers are truly committed to the kids. They’ve really been able to pivot quickly during COVID to make sure that the students don’t lose all of the hard earned progress they’ve gained.
Emily is absolutely awesome to work with! Very organized and attentive to the students. Cannot say enough good things about her dedication. Especially during times like this!
My son who is in the 4th grade now was diagnosed with a learning disability earlier this year. He has been attending Huntington learning center since last 6 months and we see a big difference in his ability to learn. Huntington learning center has created a positive environment to foster academic interest in kids. The instructors are friendly and patient. If your kid has a different learning style or academic needs, then I highly recommend the Huntington learning center located on Cupertino.
I never write reviews, but this one is a MUST! After visiting countless learning centers, and feeling discouraged I finally received the answers I was looking for. Emily did an assessment with our son, she was very energetic and friendly, my very shy 6 year old followed her into the center without hesitation and walked out with a sticker and big smile! Two days later my wife and I (both educators) met with Nick, we were instantly impressed by his depth his knowledge and care about my sons current skill level. We were further impressed by his very individualized plan to bridge the gap, and even get my son ahead of the game, he even had us set goals as parents, and as a team! My son started working with a tutor the same week and enjoys going to his Huntington School.
Weve been coming here for years and had good success w/the prior ownership group. Unfortunately, new ownership and management took over a few months ago and they are nothing but unprofessional, totally uncaring about the student and only concerned about $$$!!! I signed up for SAT prep for my daughter. However, we received only a fraction of the materials and instructions that they were supposed to provide! What was even more concerning is that it took them 6 WEEKS to figure that out!!! And it wasnt even because they were looking. It was because my daughter took a practice SAT and only improved by 30 points! (Yes, only 30 points for 6 weeks of private one-on-one tutoring!). Obviously, I started asking questions about the meager point improvement. Thats when they realized that they forgot to enroll my daughter up for their online practice/testing/homework sessions! How a tutoring center cannot even check or ask about a students progress over a course of 6 weeks is inexcusable and shocking but I was still trying to give them the benefit of the doubt and tried working with them. Unfortunately, management has yet to respond to my emails or calls. I did, however, receive a call from their centers director. Beside saying that she would have the owner call me (that was 3 days ago and I still have yet to hear from the owner), she had no plan to catch my daughter up for the missed materials but was willing to enroll us in the online course for a year (meaning we would have to continue to go to and pay for tutoring for the next year... uh... no thank you!!!). So now were left with trying to figure out how my daughter is going to cram and study for the upcoming SAT test that shes signed up to take in August! Absolutely NO CONCERN FOR THE KIDS HERE! If youre looking for to help your kids in test prep or just general schoolwork, I would not come here! Youd be just wasting time and $ and worst of all, you may not even know it until its too late (like us).
Our first engagement with Huntington was really impressive, but also 2 weeks before Shelter In Place due to COVID.HLC had never offered remote learning via video.Once SIP came into effect the team not only adapted but thrived. We are seeing EXACTLY the results we hoped to from our 14yo daughter (teach her HOW to learn and study). She is building her own study plans now AND executing on them by her self at home, thanks to HLC.The tutorial hour per day with HLC is her anchor around which all her study plans revolve during this trying time.Bottom line: the best thing you can give a human being is the ability to reason, learn and adapt. HLC is giving our daughter that.Both our daughter and HLC are amazing.
Excellent partner in working with the schools and PTAs in the Cupertino area. Combining great teaching with close partnerships with the teachers.
I really like one to one format during the tutoring since every kid is different. It also provide flexibility about tutoring materials and hours. Teachers are wonderful.
As a job applicant, I was significantly underwhelmed. They didnt know what they didnt know during the interview, and I was rudely received when I asked for a status report. They paid lip service to my specialized training but didnt actually show any interest in the extra knowledge that I might provide. Apparently, they prefer Sonoma State grads over Stanford grads: that shows an insecure mindset. They are intellectually insecure, so they project their insecurities on those who are more confident, better educated, better credentialed, more experienced, and more skilled. The assistant director is not a certified General Ed teacher in a public school but her certification is for Special Ed students. Her certification is preliminary rather than a cleared credential, so she hasnt been fully cleared as a public school teacher. The assistant director describes her job in terms of brand awareness and marketing rather than in terms of publications, pedagogy, and curriculum differentiation. Honestly, if they hadnt simply ghosted me I would not have posted all of these observations. But I consider ghosting unprofessional and immature behavior that is beneath the expectations of civilized people.
Huntington puts your student first and makes learning fun. I would recommend Huntington for your student.
Very good teachers, Nick and Emily are amazing to work with. For the past two years, our two grandchildren have been very happy and motivated. Also, very patiently try to explain and translate to bilingual parents. 👍👍👍
