Similar to other reviews left on this site, we would not recommend Huntington in Wayne. From the first time we brought our daughter there to when we ultimately left (a period of three months), Huntington did not give us the correct information, basically forced us to accept a standardized curriculum, and in general, was not accommodating to our schedule changes. Finally, their customer service left much to be desired, as they continually gave us the runaround when we called them for basic information and follow up. Although we have little doubt that Huntington helps a lot of people, in our opinion, this particular center is disorganized and lacks basic customer service. If I could give zero stars I would. We will never return to Huntington for any reason. read more

My daughter who is a straight A student and took mostly AP classes in high school, took the SAT twice without any prep courses and got the same score both times. It was a good score but she needed to improve it for some of the universities she was applying to. After a bit of research and multiple times of having meetings with Huttington and them promising us that they can definitely help her raise her SAT score we enrolled her in the SAT prep course which was pretty pricey. My daughter's score not only did not improve but it was actually lower than her previous scores that she got without taking the Huntington prep course. I would not recommend. read more

This is my honest story for anyone looking to find out about Huntington Learning Center and how it chooses to treat people. If you are looking to tutor there I would suggest avoiding at all costs. And certainly, my bad experience probably doesn't speak well to how they also must treat parents and students. You aren't just awful with potential employees and wonderful with other people. Everything is a reflection. A year ago I applied for a tutoring position at the Ramsey NJ center through LinkedIn. I immediately got a response from a junior manager expressing interest. She asked if I could do a phone meeting the next morning at 9 am. I set the time aside and no one ever called. I contacted the office and after a few days they responded and said the office manager would like to speak with me and could I possibly do 11 am the following morning? I figured it was an honest mistake and looked forward to the meeting. The next day, just as before, the manager didn't show up. I contacted Ramsey a 3rd time and they apologized and said she was traveling ..Could I speak with her the following day? I agreed and that was on me. Of course, she didn't show up again. When I contacted the Ramsey office a 4th time, they replied that magically I was no longer what they were looking for. No interviews. Broken promises, Disrespectful. No conversations, no explanations. You cn'nt go out of your way to treat someone like that. Never mind someone you don't even know who is responding to a Linke In employment position. Fast forward a year and I see a tutoring position at Huntington in Wayne, NJ. I thought "Maybe it was a one-time thing connected specifically to the Ramsey center.. The experience was oddly almost identically scripted except a bit trickier and far more insensitive. Someone named Stacie called me and expressed interest and asked if I could meet with the office manager Geneva. She explained if that went ok I would take an SAT practice exam. She added " I can already tell you that Geneva will like you because you are very personable. 2 days later I met with office manager Geneva who explained the position was part-time and the pay was between $17-20 an hour. I guess in their minds paying someone $17 an hour ENTITLES them to treat people in any way they choose. The interview went fine, or at least no one expressed anything but nice things. She asked, "Could I come in to take the test on Saturday morning?" My family was leaving for the beach that morning but I wanted to be responsible and accountable. I came in at 10 on Saturday and took the test. When I left Stacie told me that it would be looked at on Sunday and they would either contact me then or on Monday. No, once again, not that at all, outright lie. Like that old familiar Ramsey tune, there was silence. I emailed Stacie on Tuesday and nicely asked how things were looking..No response. I called on Thursday and no one answered so I left a message. No response.. About 4 days later I already knew I was back in a Huntington hold but I sent this email - copied and pasted: "Hi Geneva, I'm completely confused by what has transpired. Stacie spoke with me on the phone, I came in and saw you, and you told me I had to take the test. I came in on time and took it. Stacie told me it would be looked at most likely on the next day. Regardless of whether I failed the test or you didn't perhaps want to hire me, I can't understand the silence. I would respect an honest answer and I always treat people as I wish to be treated. " This incredulously was the curt, insensitive response I got from Stacie- pasted: "We have been busy with meetings and setting up on center for our summer program. Apologies for the delay. At this time, we will not be able to move forward with your application. Wish you the best of luck. " Apparently there is a common theme with this odd company. I think that is a reasonable assumption. It's a terrible way to treat someone 2 times for only wanting to be employed as a tutor. And as I stated earlier, BEWARE, because if they are willing to treat me like that, there is no way they are miraculously going to care about parents , their children or any other human beings. I have never ever in my life written a negative review like this. I find it abhorrent how they twice chose to deal with me and for no explainable reason. Even if I didn't for some reason do well on the test that could've been professionally and respectfully explained and this review never would have happened. And as stated earlier with Ramsey I didn't even get a chance to speak to anyone or take a test. It was outright trickery. . I have 3 children and many friends with children and if they ever ask about tutoring centers I will be certain to warn them to avoid this place. Shame on you Huntington. read more

A horrifying experience! They were willing to reschedule for inclement weather but not when my child came home feeling ill one day after school. I paid for both math and English, and then they wanted even more money after that knowing my circumstances. I was docked some sessions in my refund as well so they are very underhanded. I agree with the other comments on these reviews - the instructors are good but the management is a complete train wreck. It was run much better years back when my older child attended. Then you get the sense that these centers are owned and operated and do not adhere to any oversight so that's why they get away with everything. Management staff is completely rude and obnoxious towards parents as well. I would not recommend this place to anybody! read more

We brought our daughter to Huntington Learning Center on route 23 in Wayne so she could possibly increase her SAT score. Not only did her SAT score jump a few hundred points!!! ... but her grades at school went up an entire letter across the board. The friendly, helpful, experienced and knowledgeable staff at Huntington got her motivated and gave her ways to study and approach learning and test-taking that made a huge difference. SO GLAD WE BROUGHT HER HERE! Thank you Huntington :) read more

Tutors are helpful and very kind but the establishment is not well managed - not organized and somewhat unprofessional. I was enrolled for ACT tutoring over the Summer and I took 3 practice tests with them over the course of 2 months. Their tutoring system is not catered to the individual - there are 2 different books for Math/Science and English/Reading that the tutor goes through with each student. I feel as thought those books were the main concern of each tutoring session rather than my weaknesses. Overall, everyone was kind but things were said by their management that were not carried through with after I ended my sessions. read more

This is the best tutoring service in the Wayne, NJ area, by far! I HIGHLY recommend!!!

Huntington Learning Center continues to provide excellent customer service to incoming and continuing families seeking tutoring services for their children. The Wayne center is managed by an incredible team whose attention to the individualized needs of every student is unbounded. The teacher's are professional, knowledgeable, and are genuinely interested in assisting each student to reach their potential which continues to allow the cultivation of each student's personal needs. You do not want to want any longer than you already have to experience what Huntington Learning Center can do for YOU! read more

What a disgusting way for a business ..... $7,200 for ACT Prep course which my son just needs before the Oct 27 date... not only do u pay for their "ACT" test, but their way of computing the exact or "estimated tutor time" is the score my son received which the last 2 1/2 hours my son lost focus on their test. They try to tell me he would have enough time to take another one in Dec 15 so he would still make the application deadlines . I think they know by the time you come to them is your desperate for your child for those 5+ points that they promise you ... And you would be desperate enough to sign a contract with them. IM SO DISGUSTED... all I wanted was a tutor for my son... I WOULD NEVER EVER RECOMMEND this establishment. read more

What you see on tv with all of the ads is not what happens. On day one they sat me in an office for about 7 hours and take tests and write essays. After that they determined my weaknesses. On day two they say me at a desk and gave me worksheets and never taught me anything. I did the work, completed the sections and left. They never corrected it or told me if I did anything right. It was ridiculous wasting time and money here. read more

My daughter had a 1050 score in her last SAT WITHOUT Huntington, we decided to enroll her at Huntington to get better scores, disappointingly her SAT score AFTER tutoring with Huntington was 1090..unbelievable...they promised 1200..it wasn't even close..dont use this service read more

The staff and teachers are knowledgeable and help all of their students to develop the skills they need for school and college. I highly recommend sending your child to this center if you are looking for any type of educational improvement! read more

We brought our son to Huntington Learning Center on rt 23 in Wayne in preparation for his SAT. The teachers at this learning center are very professional and have done a great job preparing our son for this important exam. When we received our son's SAT score we were very impressed with his score. Our son was also very happy with his score and said that the teachers motivated and inspired him to do better. We highly recommend this learning center because we believe it could help students improve in their homework and exams. read more

These people are so disorganized it is hard to believe. My 1st, now 2nd grader was enrolled, at a cost of approximately $7,000, we have had no communication as to her progress in months and when we try and contact the director it take multiple phone calls to finally hunt her down and get a response. We have been through 3 or 4 directors at this location in the year or so that we have tried to have our daughter tutored there. Today I finally had a meeting scheduled with the director, after waiting for over 25 minutes she advised that she had a teacher with an emergency and she had to tutor another child. SO SHE LEFT ME SITTING THERE FOR 25 MINUTES INSTEAD OF TELLING ME WHEN I GOT THERE??? RUN FROM THESE PEOPLE! read more
