Sean's Success Story
Sean first came to Huntington in Brick, NJ as an elementary student who was struggling. After Huntington helped him achieve academic success in third grade, his mom and dad knew that when Sean began struggling with geometry in ninth grade, Huntington was the place they would go for help. When his parents came into the center for a conference, Sean was on the brink of failing geometry. Having recently implemented a new subject tutoring curriculum, we began tutoring Sean in geometry, using his high school textbook.
To follow up on Sean's progress in the classroom and ensure his improvements at Huntington were translating into success at school, as center director, I made an appointment with his geometry teacher to discuss the situation and how we could help improve his grade and further his progress.
His teacher informed me that Sean was improving and understanding and applying the material that he was learning during his Huntington lessons. Sean's current grade, in fact, was a B+.
All in all, Sean's performance on tests, homework and class work yielded him an A for the semester and put him on the honor roll.
