Huntington Learning Center
Getting Students Back on Track for Success
Huntington Learning Center
has established itself as a trusted
learning environment for students
in the Dr. Phillips, Windermere
and now Winter Garden areas.
This past spring, the center opened
a second location in Winter Garden
to better serve families in that area.
In today’s academic environment,
students are facing more challenges
than ever before, but Huntington
Learning Center is prepared and
equipped to help.
Executive Director Aziz Kabani
explained the problem facing students
is they have been trying to play
catch up each year since COVID-19.
“We’re still dealing with the effects
of COVID-19, and we’re seeing issues
arise because of that learning loss,”
Kabani said.
Students are already at a disadvantage
going into a new school year.
There is a known learning regression
that happens every summer. When
parents take into consideration the
challenges that schools have faced
during the past couple of years, children
aren’t retaining the information
they’re learning as well and are struggling
as a result.
Staying One Step Ahead
Huntington Learning Center is committed
to helping students, not just
get back on track, but continue to
progress.
“Our goal is to always have students
working one grade level
ahead,” Kabani said. “We identify
where their skill level is and build all
the way up.”
Huntington Learning Center does
this through thorough evaluation of
what each student needs and oneon-one
instruction customized to each
child. It also offers a virtual option for
those who aren’t comfortable coming
to the center in person. Virtual
students get the exact same learning
experience online, as well as access
to the same 3,000 pieces of curriculum
that is available in the center.
Whether it’s reading, writing or math,
the teachers are able to continue oneon-one
instruction online at no extra
charge.
“The first thing we do is give the
student an assessment to see exactly
where they fall with their skill level,”
Kabani said. “Our goal is to be able
to identify any setback or any gaps
in their foundational skills. From there,
we develop a program for each individual
child. There are no two students
in our program that are working
on the same curriculum. It’s all based
on specific needs.”
The dedication to each child’s success
and willingness to go above and
beyond are what truly set Huntington
Learning Center apart. The teachers
work in partnership with parents and
schools. They have progress meetings
with the child’s parents every few
weeks, so they are informed of what
skills their child is working on and how
he or she is progressing. They may
reach out to the student’s teachers at
school to collaborate on the best way
to help the student progress, and they
are happy to attend IEP or 504 meetings
to advocate for the student.
All teachers at Huntington
Learning Center are required to hold
PROMOTIONAL FEATURE
a minimum four-year degree and
must be trained specifically in the
subject matter they are teaching. The
center has been helping students for
more than 20 years and is accredited
by the Middle States Association.
It is also accredited as a private
school by the Florida Department of
Education.
With the largest SAT program in
the state, their average test score increases
are impressive. A Huntington
student’s SAT test score will on average
increase by 250 points or more,
and their ACT test score will on average
increase by 6 points.
“For some people, it’s the difference
between even going to college
and not going to college,” Kabani
said.
Huntington Day School
In an effort to enhance learning
even further, Huntington Learning
Center opened the Huntington
Day School in 2020. The small,
private school accepts K-4 students.
It is accredited by the Florida
Department of Education, and it mirrors
Orange County Public Schools’
calendar and hours for parents’ convenience.
Many parents will also be
happy to learn that Huntington Day
School is exempt from requiring third
and fourth graders to take the FSA.
Building Confidence
in Academics
Confidence-building is a key element
in helping students excel. All
the teachers at Huntington Learning
Center aim to encourage the students
and boost their confidence.
Parents who come to Huntington
Learning Center are often in a contentious
relationship with their kids.
They feel frustrated and discouraged
at having to fight over homework every
night and not being able to help.
And, the kids are doing what Kabani
calls delayed avoidance. They want
to do everything else except their
homework, because it’s hard. They
want to save the hardest thing for
last, and then it doesn’t get done.
“We want to let students know that
they can do the work,” Kabani said.
“The biggest complaint we get from
the parents is, ‘I cannot sit with my
child and do homework. My daughter
and I get into a fight every single
night about doing this, because it’s
too hard for her, and she doesn’t
want to listen to me.’ When we’re
able to build these skills, the student
is able to work independently, and
it changes the whole relationship
between the parent and the child,
because they’re able to get back
to being Mom and Dad and the
child instead of the teacher and the
student.”
After studying at Huntington
Learning Center, the same children
who struggled to read when they
started at the center are now reading
two or three grade levels ahead.
And, they like it, because they’ve
become good at it. Huntington
Learning Center builds those skills,
and the confidence to tackle learning
challenges and excel at them.

There are many physical and mental benefits for kids
involved in team sports.
Helping Your Child Get
the Most Out of Team Sports
When it comes to improving
academic performance, boosting
self-esteem and teaching social
skills, few things beat team
sports. Sports give kids the opportunity
to get attention and respect
and to use the natural skills
that come with youth, like speed
and coordination.
According to one survey of
2,185 children conducted by
the Women’s Sports Foundation
and Harris Interactive, kids who
played sports or who participated
in activities like frisbee, camping
and hiking felt healthier and
more confident about their bodies
than those who did not. Other
studies demonstrate that children
active in sports perform better in
school and are less likely to use
drugs as young adults.
Of course, sports can have a
downside. Overly competitive
leagues, discouraging coaches
and injuries from unsafe practices
can quickly turn kids away
from sports. So how can you
make sure that your child has a
positive experience? Here are
some tips:
• Make sure that your child is
mature enough to participate.
In general, kids aren’t equipped
for the rules and cooperation required
in team sports until age
6 or 7. But, each child develops
differently. Don’t push children if
they’re not ready.
• Make sure that the league or
coach emphasizes fun. If you ask
children why they want to play a
sport, they’ll probably say that
they want to have fun or make
friends. No matter their sport
of choice, make sure that your
child’s enjoying himself or herself.
• Don’t stress winning over
everything else. Extreme competi
tiveness overrides any
sportsmanship your child would
otherwise learn. Focus on personal
markers of success, not the
league championship.
You can reward your child for
playing a sport even if his or her
league does not. PlaqueMaker
Plus allows you to print your
child’s photo in a sports-shaped
frame. You can also order your
own trophies and present them
for a job well done, whether that
means making the winning hit or
simply putting in a good effort.
• Don’t force your child to
specialize too soon. Few kids
are going to get sports scholarships.
Instead of trying to turn
your child into a baseball or
basketball star, let them try out a
variety of sports. Some children
are never going to enjoy sports.
Instead of forcing kids into an
activity that they don’t like, find
another physical activity such as
track, cycling or hiking that they
can enjoy.

Summer brings sunshine and plenty
of exciting opportunities to head
outdoors for fun with family and
friends. While those joyous moments
make the season special, all that sun
exposure can wreak havoc on the
skin without the proper precautions.
Whether you’re dining outdoors,
going for a swim, sweating out a
bike ride, or just spending a few moments
soaking up some sun, it’s important
to ensure you’re taking care
of your body so you can enjoy those
rays all season long.
Stay Hydrated
As an important aspect of overall
health, staying hydrated also helps
maintain your skin’s water content. Be
sure to drink plenty of water throughout
the day, especially as temperatures
rise and you spend more time
outdoors. Another delicious way to
avoid dehydration — leading to energy
drain, in mild cases — is to eat
fruits and vegetables with high water
content. One example is watermelon,
which is 92% water and can
help restore fluids.
Prioritize Skin Protection
Whether you’ll be in the sun for a
few minutes or a few hours, it’s paramount
to protect skin by applying
sunscreen. On days when the ultraviolet
index is 3 or higher, officials
of the Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention recommend applying
a broad-spectrum sunscreen with a
sun protection factor of 15 or higher.
Another option is to wear light, loose
clothing that covers as much of the
skin as possible while staying comfortable
in the heat.
Summertime Skin Care Tips
Refresh Your Face
As one of the parts of the body
that sees the most sun exposure,
your face is perhaps the most important
area to care for during the
sunnier months. An at-home, all-natural,
DIY facial offers a brightening,
hydrating way to treat yourself.
For a true glow-up from the comfort
of your own home, try this
quick and easy solution: Mix 2
tablespoons of Greek yogurt (to
help exfoliate and purify) with 1
tablespoon of watermelon juice (for
hydration). Apply the mask to your
face and neck for 10 minutes, then
rinse off and pat your skin dry.
Keep Your Whole Body in Mind
While your face is likely to see a
lot of sun, that shouldn’t mean neglecting
the rest of your body. This
gentle body scrub can give you
that glow you’re looking for with a
sweet, fruity scent.
Here’s how to exfoliate and polish
your skin: Combine 1 1/2 cups
of white sugar, 1 teaspoon of lemon
juice and 1/4 cup of watermelon
juice. If you’d like, add 1 teaspoon
of microplaned watermelon rind
zest and 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
Store the scrub in an airtight container
up to 1 week and, when you
shower, gently rub a handful of
scrub on your skin then rinse thoroughly
and pat dry.
For more skin care solutions and
other health and nutritional information,
visit watermelon.org.
For many, summer skin care can
be as simple as following a basic
routine. However, those with more
sensitive skin may require additional
attention. Try the following calming,
cleansing at-home remedy to
moisturize and tone sensitive skin.
Watermelon Mask & Toner

Extreme temperatures and booming
sounds can have big impacts
on pets.
With record-breaking heat across
much of the nation, the experts at
Freshpet are helping pet parents
with the following tips to help keep
their pets healthy and safe this
summer.
Heat
Heat stroke can occur quickly in
dogs. Without the ability to sweat
the same way humans do, it’s important
for pet parents to understand
ways to cool their pets down
when temperatures rise and how
to avoid common mistakes to keep
their pets safe.
“Just because we can manage
the heat and humidity, doesn’t
mean our pets can,” said Dr. Aziza
Glass, Freshpet’s expert veterinarian.
“Our pets are vulnerable to
temperatures over 80 F. However,
there are things we can do to keep
our pets safe and protected from
heat-related injuries, and some may
come as a surprise.”
Vet-Approved Tips
to Help Keep Pets Safe
• Limit time outdoors. While outdoor
activities are typically recommended
for pets, their inability to
sweat the same way humans do can
cause them to heat up quickly. Limit
walks to early morning or after the
sun sets and stay indoors as much
as possible the rest of the day.
• Fill their water bowls. Just like
humans, clean water is essential for
helping pets manage the heat. Cool
water can help cool down your
pet’s body temperature. Moisturerich
fresh food like options from
Freshpet — made with 100% farmraised
chicken, beef or fish and allnatural
fruits and veggies — can
also help with hydration.
• Avoid shaving your pet. While
summer cuts for long-haired dogs
are OK, shaving your pet can expose
his or her skin to harmful sun
damage and cause overheating
more quickly.

WINDERMERE, FL 34786
Dr. Glass recommends pet parents
educate themselves on how
to recognize heat stroke. Heavy
panting, drooling, high body temperature,
increased heart rate and
fatigue are some signs of heat
stroke in dogs.
“If you believe your dog is having
a heat stroke, bring him or her
indoors immediately to help cool
down,” she said. “A common mistake
is putting the pet in a cold ice
bath. That can actually shock the
system and cause quick changes
in blood pressure. Instead, soak a
towel in room temperature water
and wipe your dog down to start
the cooling process. Afterwards,
proceed immediately to your primary
care veterinarian or closest
emergency center.”
Thunderstorms & Fireworks
Booming sounds and crackling
fireworks can send some pets into
sensory overdrive. According to Dr.
Glass, with an elevated ability to
under beds or jump fences to flee
the sounds, there are ways to help
make noises less stressful for canine
companions.
• Create a calm environment.
Be aware if you or your neighbors
plan to launch fireworks. If so, create
a space to help your dog deal
with the noise. A sound machine,
lavender oil on his or her collar,
and blankets can help.
• Remain indoors. Avoid taking
your dog outside if a storm is nearby.
A dog’s first reaction may be to
flee from the noise and search for
a safe spot, placing him or her in
more danger.
• Stay close. Pets feel less anxious
when they feel safe. Make sure
you or someone they feel safe with
is by their side until the loud noises
are over, offering comfort, treats
and affection throughout the event.
