Huntington Learning Center Awards 2017 Educator of the Year, Todd Silver of the Massapequa Park, NY Center
ORADELL, N.J. (PRWEB) January 20, 2018 -- Huntington Learning Center is proud to announce its 2017 Educator of the Year, Todd Silver, of the Huntington Learning Center in Massapequa Park, NY. Silver was named recipient of the award on January 9, 2018, at the annual Company Center Convention, which took place at the Teaneck Marriott at Glenpointe in Teaneck, NJ. The convention attendees included Huntington directors from its 35 company-owned centers, corporate and regional staff, co-founders, Chairman Dr. Ray Huntington and CEO Eileen Huntington, and Vice President, Business Development Anne Huntington.
Nominations for Huntington Educator of the Year are based on a teacher’s commitment to the Huntington mission of giving every student the best education possible. Silver, a special education elementary school teacher, is a veteran tutor at Huntington Learning Center for 15 years, tutoring thousands of students in reading, math and other subjects. He was one of 35 nominees selected from more than 1,000 teachers at company-owned Huntington Learning Centers throughout New York and New Jersey.
The 2018 convention celebrated Huntington's 41 years of helping children do better in school and praised staff members for their dedication to students, parents and students’ school teachers. The convention theme was “creating miracles by giving every child the best education possible,” which is firmly rooted in Huntington’s mission. Expert panels and roundtable discussions allowed center staff and teachers to share best practices and exchange ideas.
Massapequa Park’s Center Director Amanda Smith says that Silver is deeply dedicated to teaching and his students. “Todd embodies what Huntington is all about,” she says. “He always connects with his students by finding something they both have in common. He strives to provide every one of our students the best education possible and ensures students leave the center with new tools to improve their grades and their confidence. He also makes everyone feel valued and appreciated, from his students to his fellow teachers to the full-time staff at the Massapequa Park center.”
Dr. Huntington says that teachers like Silver are the reason that Huntington can fulfill its mission. “Todd is a talented, passionate teacher who cares about helping students be successful learners,” he says. “We’re so grateful that he is a part of the Huntington team. He is very deserving of this honor and he is a stellar example of what we strive to be for the students we serve.”
