How we wrote this
TaleemSquare offers online one-to-one tutoring, so we compete with Huntington. Figures come from Huntington's own FAQ and the dated estimates listed at the end, checked in October 2026. Huntington does not publish one national price list, so your center's quote may differ.
Huntington Learning Center has been helping students for decades and is known for its detailed academic evaluation. Its FAQ says it offers competitive hourly rates and flexible payment options, and that pricing is discussed at a conference after the evaluation. That means you will not see a price on the website, and you need to budget from estimates.
Here is what families typically pay, what drives the total, and how to compare it fairly.
How much does Huntington cost per hour?
Published estimates from September 2026 put Huntington tutoring at about $45 to $80 or more per hour. Where your center sits in that range depends on location, the subject, the student's grade and whether the work is regular tutoring or exam preparation.
Huntington says tutors hold four-year college degrees and either state or Huntington certification, and that its centers are accredited by regional accrediting bodies. Those standards are part of what you are paying for.
How much does the academic evaluation cost?
Every Huntington program starts with an academic evaluation, which Huntington describes as a set of multi-disciplinary assessments to find where and why a child is struggling. Estimates put the initial evaluation at about $150 to $250. Huntington's FAQ does not list a fee, so ask your center whether the evaluation is charged separately and whether you get a written report.
How much does Huntington cost per month?
Huntington says the evaluation sets the schedule, with most students attending at least twice a week during the school year and three or more times a week in summer. Using the estimated hourly range:
| Hours per week | Estimated monthly cost |
|---|---|
| 1 hour | About $180 to $320 |
| 2 hours | About $360 to $640 |
| 3 hours | About $540 to $960 |
How much does Huntington cost for a school year?
Over a longer stretch, the totals add up quickly. At two hours a week, published estimates put an 18-week semester at about $1,620 to $2,880 and a 36-week school year at about $3,240 to $5,760, before the evaluation fee.
Huntington says there is no contract and students can stop at any time, which limits the risk. Still, ask how many months the evaluation suggests, so you can budget the whole plan rather than one month at a time.
How much is Huntington SAT and ACT prep?
Test prep is sold as packages. Estimates put Huntington's 14-hour SAT or ACT program at about $1,300 and its 32-hour program at about $2,800, which works out to roughly $87 to $93 an hour. Huntington also offers prep for exams such as the GED, ASVAB, HSPT, ISEE and state tests.
What should you ask at the pricing conference?
Huntington discusses price after the evaluation, so go in with a short list:
- What did the evaluation find, and can I have the results in writing?
- How many hours a week do you recommend, and for how many weeks?
- What is the hourly rate for my child's grade and subject, and does it change for test prep?
- Is my child taught one-to-one, or does the tutor work with other students at the same time?
- How is billing handled, what are the payment options, and what happens if we stop early?
How can you keep Huntington costs down?
Ask whether the plan can start at the lower end of the recommended hours and step up only if progress is slow. Set a review point after the first 8 to 10 weeks. For test prep, compare the package price per hour with a private tutor for the same exam. And if your child mainly needs help in one subject, ask whether a shorter, focused plan would meet the goal.
Is Huntington worth the cost?
Huntington tends to be worth it when:
- Your child has gaps you cannot pin down, and a thorough evaluation would save months of guessing.
- You want qualified tutors and a structured plan with regular parent conferences.
- An exam is coming and you want a defined package with a clear number of hours.
It is harder to justify when your child needs help in one subject that a single good tutor could cover, when the drive two or three times a week is a strain, or when the monthly total stretches your budget for many months.
