New York, NY – November 11, 1015 – Khan’s Tutorial kicked off its much-anticipated AwardsMania 2025 celebration this past Sunday at its newest location, Khan’s Hillside-Parsons Center, marking the beginning of a month-long tour across the many neighborhoods the organization proudly serves throughout New York City.
The celebration brought together families, students, and instructors for an afternoon filled with pride, joy, and community spirit. The cozy, welcoming atmosphere set the perfect stage for honoring students’ exceptional performances on the New York State Exams. Parents and loved ones eagerly cheered as students received recognition for their academic achievements, many reaching the highest score bands in English Language Arts and Mathematics.
Dr. Ivan Khan, CEO of Khan’s Tutorial, shared his excitement about the event, “AwardsMania is one of our favorite times of the year because it celebrates not just test scores, but the hard work and determination of our students and families. Seeing parents beam with pride and students gain confidence reminds us why Khan’s Tutorial exists—to uplift every family through education.”
“For over three decades, Khan’s Tutorial has stood by New York City families, helping children reach their fullest academic potential. At Hillside-Parsons, I felt such warmth and gratitude in the room. Our students’ success stories continue to inspire hope and progress within our community.” said Khan’s Tutorial Chairperson, Mrs. Nayeema Khan.
Parents in attendance also shared heartfelt reflections on their children’s growth and the meaningful support they’ve received from Khan’s Tutorial instructors and staff.
“I’ve tried several tutorials, but Khan’s Tutorial has been the one to help my child the most,” said a caring mother of a 4th Grader at Khan’s Hillside-Parsons.
“Last year, before we came to Khan’s, my child was always getting 1s and 2s on their report cards. But now, they are getting 4s. So thank you Khan’s Tutorial. I tell all of my neighbors about Khan’s.” said another caring mother of a 4th Grader at Khan’s Hillside-Parsons.
The Khan’s Hillside-Parsons celebration marks just the beginning of Khan’s Tutorial’s AwardsMania Tour 2025, which will continue throughout the month of November across multiple boroughs.
