Danny first came to Huntington in Staten Island, NY as an elementary student, enrolled in the learning center program. He completed his program, his grades improved, and he left us as a successful Huntington alumnus.

Fast forward to the spring semester of 2011. Danny was now a seventh-grader enrolled in a rigorous private school on Staten Island, and he was once again struggling. His parents were at their wits end, as Danny was failing math and was in danger of failing several other classes. It was Danny who remembered the experiences he had at Huntington as an elementary student, and he suggested coming back to us for help.

Danny first started in our math subject tutoring program in the hopes that he could pass his finals and make it into eighth grade. After this emergency fix, he re-enrolled in a learning center program. He attended the center all summer, coming in every day for several hours.

By November 2011, Danny had completed his program and both he and his parents were thrilled with the results. However, despite all the hard work, Danny was still struggling in algebra and was now struggling in Spanish as well. Danny told his mother he wanted to continue at Huntington. He is enrolled in our enrichment program, working on further developing his writing and study skills and he also receives subject tutoring in Spanish and algebra.
