Huntington Learning Center fosters learning for all
The cost for services at the center depends on each student’s needs and the number of sessions with a tutor.
“This is a place to make mistakes and learn from them and not have them aect your grades, so that when you go to school, you can apply what you’ve learned,” Traub said. Another detail Traub said in addition to teaching students academically, the center works on building students’ con dence. “Many students are doing poorly in school because they just don’t have the con dence to raise their hand and ask questions,” Traub said. “So we want to make sure that this is a space where the kids feel comfortable asking any ques- tions that they have.”
From tutoring and test preparation to building con dence, Huntington Learning Center of Georgetown oers a learning environment open to teaching all types of students. Opened in 2020, the center oers services for students in kindergarten through 12th grade, and provides tutoring in math, reading and science as well as test preparation for the State of Texas Assessments of Academic Readiness, Advanced Placement exams, the ACT, SAT and GED. A closer look Center Director Nikki Traub began working at the center in its early days. Traub said the center has 18 tutors on sta that typically work with 20-25 students per day.
